More Silversmiths Agree to Bill Products at Retail Prices Less 40 Per Cent

It was announced last week that on and after Aug. 1 the Gorham interests (the Gorham Co., the Whiting Mfg. Co., the William B. Durgin Co., and the William B. Kerr Co.) will change their method of billing their products.

After that date these companies will bill at retail prices less 40 per cent., to dealers, sterling gold, electro-plate, chests, cases, flannel bags and rolls. Flatware price lists of each of these companies may be had on application after Aug. 1.

Several other large silver concerns in the trade inaugurated this system over a year ago in response to the demand of the American National Retail Jewelers’ Association.
