CLOTHING PROFITS
INQUIRY IN N.S.W.
TRADERS' GAINS NOT EXCESSIVE,
(UNITES PKESJ ASSOCIATION.—CBPTRIGHT.) (Received October 12, 10 a.m.)
• , SYDNEY, This Day. The Commission which inquii-ed into the cost of clothing has reported that it is unable to regard the returns on capital excessive, as the total profit is not more than five per cent, on turnover. •TJhe main cause of high prices, it reports, is the high cost of goods to the trader, and the relief to be found in cutting down his profits would be comparatively small.
