Not until they are able to operate at a fair margin of profit, however, is there any hope of improved conditions. Supporting these reputable merchants is your part of the job of rebuilding. They are the ones who are in a position to offer you the really outstanding values.

Their reputation for integrity, built over a period of many years, is worthy of your confidence. We, as an organization, are sincerely trying to do our part. We've made mistakes it's true, but they have been honest mistakes and we've profited by them. For instance, during the boom times we became overstocked with merchandise. Then during the economic chaos which came upon all of us so suddenly we were possibly over-anxious in our sales methods.

These mistakes have been rectified. We recently eliminated over 17,000 suits, overcoats and other garments from our retail stores because we felt that they did not represent present day values. This necessitated a tremendous loss of course, but it was justified: Today our stocks are in the finest condition in the history of the business. They are brand new merchandise and offered at prices which we sincerely believe to be outstanding. Because of the wide difference in values that are being offered today we are more than ever before encouraging comparative shopping.

And whether or not you wish to buy you will be assured, in our stores, of friendly, courteous treatment. Other outstanding merchants are operating along the same constructive lines and this concentrated enterprise, strengthened by your support, will be the cause leading to business recovery. of This articles, is Business the written second in of the a Reconstruction. series interest of FOREMAN CLARK 7th and SACRAMENTO SACRAMENTO BEE, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 31, 1933. -PAGE THREE SELF-SUPPORTING AGENCIES SIFTED BY FACT FINDERS State Bureaus Kept Going By Investigated For Greater Savings Senate "fact-finding" committee members, drawing up economy plans designed la to save the state $21,000,000 in general fund expenditures during the next two yea have turned their attention to the so-called "self-supporting" specia: state agencies.
