That there is no justification for this beyond a predatory dtsire to exploit the public is evidenced by the fact that the Melbourne Clothing Company is still selling the following all pure wool colonial clothings at antewar prices. For instance: Men's Kaiapoi suits, 2!)s Cd; boys' Pctone Norfolk suits, size 7, 15s OJ, to size 14, 18s 9d; men's Ptto'ie tweed suits, 37s Cd; men's Pctone Saddle tweed suits, 39s Cd; men's Roslyn boxed suits, 355; boys' Roslyn sport suits, size 0, fls Cd, up to size 10, 22s fid.
