G. Johnston, secretary o% the Canadian Chain Store Association, paid tribute to newspapers as the guardâ€" ians of the right of consumers to buy what they need at the lowest cost of distribution. "The old order changeth," quo‘ed Mr. Jshnston,. "but how slow the old order States Newspapers are Aid to Consumers "The old order changeth," quoted Mr.} Johnston, "but how slow the old orderg was to change before the printing press: began to spread civilization! The old! crder was slow to change because, alâ€" though gossip travels swiftly, facts are slow to take hold until placed in cold hard type in the newspapers." | Old Methods Wasteful Without newspapers telling consumâ€"| ers how most efficiently to spend theirl dollars,, and their pennies, the speaker said, the old wasteful methods of getâ€" ting the goods from the producer would have continued. The chain stores were piloneers in shortening the bridge be-i tween producer and consumer, with the result that today the toll necessarily exacted by the people who have built and operate the toll bridges along the road of distribution is less than in the cld days. This does not mean, the speaker said, that the chain stores are the only retail organization which are eficient. "The point I wish to make," said the speaker, "is that all kinds of retatl crganizations have become more efficâ€" ient since the chains have developed." t $ LE .100 » + D + + + + J + + 1 1 1 J i ‘ the Saturday shopping, aii chain stores \ | Pass Savings to Consumer ‘ "The chain food stores were the first reduce this high wholesaling cost and they passed their savings on to the | ecnsumer in the form of lower prices," ‘caid Mr. Johnston. "The result was in the course of a few years the wholeâ€" saling method was changed; they elimâ€" inatcd credits, they found other efficâ€" !i-enci-es so that tcday the small indeâ€" gpendem merchant can be served by ‘his wholesaler about as cheaply as the chain store can warehouse goods and ‘ deliver them to the chain store. "This commendable step, this step which has saved untold millions of dolâ€" lars to the consumers of this country, this saving which as enabled them to lenjoy cther benefits of a modern world, | followed the chain store men‘s discovâ€" ery of the value Cf advertising," said j Mr. Johnston. "If we go back to the early days of the chain focd store," added the speakâ€" er, "we will find that among the prinâ€" | ciples on which they operated was that there would be n3 money ‘thrown away‘ <n advertising. Perhaps they were right because in those days, when tnere were no automobiles to enable the customers to come for miles to save pennies in were neigh'bsrhosd stores and the adâ€" vertising possibly could be fairly efâ€" fective if it was confined to the prices shown in the windows. 4 Helps Ail Consumers "But in the few years following the war when everybody bought an autoâ€" chile, some one in the chain store business dissovered that newspaper adâ€" vertising would be a big factor in buildâ€" ing sales volumeâ€"and high sales volâ€" ume is the great objective of every chain store man. From that day the | chain store business grew by leaps and bounds until 1932, and it hasn‘t stopâ€" ped growing yet though slowed by the depression. From that day when adâ€" vertising kegan to ‘be used by the chain focd store, the consumer has been benâ€" efited by the reduction in distribution costs in the chain store business and in the retail business which is not chain store busines. umm on mm snn m mm I Convention Speaker« Says Chain Store Advertising a Prelude to Lower Selling Costs. Explaining further, Mr. Johnston deâ€" clared that before there were many chain food stores in Canada, the disâ€" tribution of fcodstuffs through the wholesalerâ€"retailer system had been very expensive. He cited the 1919 inâ€" vestigation into the High Cost of Livâ€" ing by a committee Of parliament, when various wholesale grocery comâ€" panies testified through their officers that their costs of wholesaling only were often in excess of 10 per cent. and frequently were 12 per cent. of the consumers‘ dollar. Today, he declared, wholesaling costs were seldom if ever over 5 per cent. and frequently were less. "This is a prime example of the valâ€" ue of newstraper advertising to the consumer." No business which has grown as rapâ€" idly as has the chainâ€"store business cculd fail to have a few enemies. Here ard there, said the speaker, there @cubtless are chain store methods which make for unfriendliness. But he| a:clared that if one locks around the community for the strongest critics of chain stores, it often happens that they are competitors of chains who would like progress to stop, who see a glamor in tho herseâ€"andâ€"buggy days. "Frogress cannot be stopped," conâ€" tinued the speaker. "Nowhere on this | cortinent has anyonée ever heard of an crganizaticn of consumers appreaching 2 civic body, a legislative body, a conâ€" gress or a parliament asking that speâ€" cial taxes ke imposed on chain stores. On the contrary in a few states where have been @aroused to their ianger in special taxation of one type of grocery stare for the benefit of anâ€" cther type of grocery stere, ers have descepded on lawmakers and spoken their minds in their cwn inâ€" terests." Quetee so far has been the focal point in Canada for antiâ€"chain store legislation, Mr. Johnston said, and the chain stores recer‘ly have begun an advertising campaign which is designed to tell the consumers and the lawmakâ€" ers the truth about chain stores, indiâ€" cating the benefits which have followed ! which came soon after the chain first THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE. TIMMINS, ONTARIO Fifteen were arrested, including three lwomen. Alex Welich, CLO,. organizer ‘and Michael English, chairman of the l strike committee.

At least 15 Iwomen, who were on picket duty, are confined to their beds in a semiâ€"hyâ€" began to advertise their wares. "One mistake the chain have made through the years," concluded the speaker, "has been their failure to sell themselves as well as their goods to consumers. That mistake is being rectified in the province of Quebec right now and it is my belief that the fine story the chains have to tell will be told in the daily and weekly newspapet in the cther eight provinses in the not Fifteen Arrests in Peterborough Riot n cMf C distant future Timmins was Never Like This Even in Old Home Week, At Peterborough on Tuesday viol flared at the Bonnerâ€"Worth and burn textile mills as strikers, inclu 150 screaming girls clashed with w ers attempting to enter the plant: Fifteen were arrested, including t sterical condition. City and Ontario provincial police guarded all entrants to the mill, Deominion Woeollens Ltd.. Fear of "more trouble" was admitted by police as angry striket‘s zontinued to gather near the factory. Order is Given Company officials, acting on the asâ€" surance of Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn that workers wishing to enter the mill would given adequateâ€"police® proâ€" tecticn, ordered the plant reâ€"cpened at eight am. About 80 nonâ€"striking emâ€" ployees attempted to enter. They were met by â€"200 strikers, 150 ofâ€"them woâ€" men and fighting broke out immediateâ€" 1Â¥,. After the riot had subsided additionâ€" al workers entered the company‘s two plants. The Auburn plant had 110 emâ€" ployees ‘back. At ncon 120. girls and men had returned to the Banner Wulth plant. Fists flew and officers‘ "sticks" were used freely as the two factions clashed. Police were unrgable to make any headâ€" way until they exploded a tear gas bomb which cleared the crowd. Feared Trouble Fearing an outbreak, company offiâ€" cials had instructed the workers to assemble one block from the. plant. Pefore attempting to enter the mill, Mayor George Macdonald and Chief Constable Newhall made a futile efâ€" fort to address the strikers.. As the mayor atiempted to pierce the, picket lin> to reach a small platform, he was manhandled by the crowd of <jeering strikers. The chief constable was also unsuccessful. Flanked by nearly 40 police officers, the group of workers proceeded up Mcâ€" Donnell street towards the plant. When they attempted to enter the mill the rict began. Undaunteéed by the warnâ€" ings of the police, the strikers strugâ€" gled fiercely with both the offitcers and the workers. Women Scream sg2reaminz and shouting wildly, a mass of girl workers tangled with the cfficers, who struggled in vain to quiet them. Unable to make any headway to regain order, police cfficers exploded a tear gas bomb, which forced the comâ€" batants from the millâ€"entrance. One provinzial officer received a pail of water full in the face. An unknown spectator was escorted to the side lines with blood streaming down his face. A crowd of spectators, estimated at 500 perscns, lined the south side of the street, daubing their eyes from the efâ€" ferts cof the gas. Seventyâ€"five strikers later listened to Mayor Macdonald, who urged them to allow free passage ito the workers and await an investigation of the strike by the Labor and Industry Board. Only 25 workers entered the plant. Mayoer Blames Women "The wom>n Ccaused all the trouble," Hon. G.

I told them they had his assurâ€" ance of a provinseâ€"wide textile investiâ€" gation and his promise that if they went ‘back to work quietly now they would not be the losers." Picketers struck police with their fists, a couple threw roiten eggs, and the police retaliated with their billies. None of the workers being escorted into the plant was hurt. The group of 120 <trikers in ithe Bonnerâ€"Worth plant and the 110 in the Auburn plant will be kept inside the premises all day, Mayor Macdonald said. They will be amply protected when they leave the plants toâ€"night, he promised.
