We thank our Customers for their kindly recep- tion of the advance in prices which we have been reluctantly compelled to make. We regard this as an appreciation of our persistent efforts to maintain prices at the old level despite most adverse conditions. Unfortunately, outside circumstances were too strong, and as our domi- nant policy is to maintain the quality of our fabrics, prices had to go up. It will be our endeavour to reciprocate by reverting to normal prices when circumstances permit. In the meantime— THANKS. BRAKE & CLUTCH LININGS.
