Reasons Given by the American Hatter Why Prices Had to on Higher. Many buyers of hats have been no able, or perhaps In some cases. unwill~ ing to understand why but manufactur» are have been compelled to increase the selling price of their product, and many have ascribed their action to sbme mysterious‘ ‘trust agreement" or cbmblnation of one sort or another. formed primarily to extort an unreason- ‘nhle‘ profit from purchasers. If IObbera and retailers could read the recent annual address of President Mont. of the United Hatters of North America, It Wtillid, to a great extent. clear up any doubt In their minds as to why this action has had to be taken. The following statement by Presi- dent Mofilt gives in a nutshell the main reasonrwhy prices have been put up though there are plenty of minor causes: “Within six weeks. union conditions were established In half a dozen Orange and Newark factories. improving the condition, adding to fire welfare and happiness, and Increasing. In some in. stances 100 per cent. or more. the cam- ing capacity of from 1‘ 200 to 1.500 mem- her“ 0 B 0 “la passing, i may say that the in- crease in wages. resulting from the adoption of the new general schedule for still hats has been from thirty- -thr:e and a third to 8(‘\.elliy- -five per cent. ov er the old pricfes Hallmanufacturers have simply had to "get together" on prices for self protection. and to do away with some of the many costly allowances in the shape of extras that sharp competition he! brought right home to each one of then: The very full of these frank and friendly conferences and agreements between competing firms would seem to prove moat conclusively the neces~ slly for some concerted action that would enable them to successfully withstand the keen rivalry for trade which exists. and it is safe to say that If? the various combine ons wurc at this time to be dissolve: for any rea still the prices of today would probably remain at practic ally the present level We have rcpc Itcdiy alluded to var- ious Increased Items In manufacturers' 'ctpense accounts lhat bad to be met in subtle way sni by some one. We cite [W0 more here: The present increase in the price of packing-case lumber is 85 a thousand feet. and cardboard for boxes now costs 815 II ten more. Who has been pity lug these advances \ I ,. and the increase of 33 1-3 to 100 per ‘ cent." in the cost of labor which Mr. Moim says has taken place? The manufacturers up to recently With what result? Nineteen factories In one batting section in the highly pros- perous year of 1902 diu't get even a meager sha're of that prosperity, and made not a cent after depreciation had been charged off. and similar state- ments could be truthfully made of many other districts. Surely. it is a sorry picture. and we turn from it gladly to the Illustration of common sense shown in the action of the manufacturers in refusing long or to stand all these Increased expen sea and to pass a bit of It on one step toward the consumer It is now up to the wholesale dlstrib utors to follow their example and we are pleasedlo record that in some cit- eiosJob‘bers have already raised their selling'price on certain hats which otherwise would have shown them no profit.“ all over the new cost prices from the factory.
