TAILOR-MADE OR FACTORY-MADE We have been taking you into our confidence regarding our methods, and before telling you how we buy and the reason for our having available such a. large i and well assorted stock, despite i the great shortage everywhere | else, wo would like to say a word j I or two in explanation of the difference between tailor - made clothes and factory (or “slop”) clothes. ’ Tins is very- necessary, for in the Arbitration Court recently one witness—of course a rival—so far allowed prejudice or antagonism to over-ride his judgment as to I allege that our shops wore conducted on the factory system. This statement is entirely wrong. The Tailors’ Award clearly states that all suits sold as “tailormade” must be made on the premises where the order is taken, and wages and conditions of working set out in the "Award are complied with. “Factory” work is mostly machine work. A “factory” staff con- ! sists of from 4 to 6 machinists ; to one hand worker. Our work ; requires 15 per cent, of niachin- i ists. In other words, we have 6 j hand workers to one machinist. The reason why we can sell our suits, etc., at such low prices is by organisation and specialisation. We pay our employees far better wages than provided for in the Award, for the same reason. We aim at efficiency in the shop and Quality in the output. We allow notliing but the best to go out of our shops. Experience ■ shows it pays to give customers a “square deal.” They stick to us and advertise us among their friends. That is why our business grows so rapidly. Modern Tailors LIMITED.
