This is the New Deal at its best” he continued “for it means that the southeastern merchant who takes advantage of the market’s facilities will be on a par with any of Jiis competitors no matter how large or diversified that competitor’s buying organization may be. “But it means more than that,” said Mr. Smith, “for it is the in tention of the mart to sponsor trade shows of all descriptions; style shows, and seasonal showings, and to maintain close contact with the ready-to-wear stores of the southeast through advertising me dia. to the end that they may receive first-hand information with respect to style changes and style trends. During the past few years, man ufacturers of ready-to-wear, foi reasons of economy, have discon tinued sales offices in various sec tions of the country. Retailers, too. have found it necessary to curtail and limit expensive buying trips j. to northern markets. Retailers of j the southeast recognize that simi- lar institutions in other parts of the country have had the oppor tunity to inspect and purchas: ready-to-wear merchandise. “Already \vc have more than 15C manufacturers who have sent down exhibits,” said Mr. Smith. “These include manufacturers of furs, cloaks and suits, dresses, lin gerie and accessories, men’s and boys’ wear, textiles and hosiery. Invitations have been sent to the r.ovemors of all southeastern stater n'-’iing them to join with us in ’e’ebrating the opening of the ”°rket and we have every assur- •’ce that they will do so.” Mr. Smith laid particular em- r'-asis on the fact that the South- r'-stern Merchandise Market is be- i ’g established for the benefit of f'uthern merchants and urges their attendance at its initial ^ '°nine on January 29. guimpe has puff sleeves that pouch over the sleeveband.
