And you never liked what you saw I Your excuse was that you hated our way. What you meant was that you hated the way we've made our way work. And one of the things you've hated moot is our way of doing business. You're amazed at the American confidence between buyer and seller.

It's utterly incomprehensible to you that a fellow can lay his money on the line for a Hart Schaffner Marx suit, and never question that he will get his money's worth. But to America there is nothing amazing about it. Any American school boy could tell you the answer. It's simply fair play: But you wouldn't know about that. And the fact that we're devoting our time right now to smacking you guys down doesn't change the complexion of things one iota.

America knows she can rely on business houses like the makers of HART SCHAFFNER MARX CLOTHES Just as before. And right here in town folks know the same thing is true of this store.
