T.R. BAKER

Ashford, Kent


German clock dumping is considered by many jewelers here to be responsible for the lean times many jewelers have experienced in the clock side of their business since the armistice. At one bankruptcy examination this week T. R. Baker, of Ashford, a jeweler and clockmaker, said he formed a company to manufacture alarm clocks in 1919 and that in the following year German clocks began to enter England at such a rate and at a retail selling cost of a third of the price of the English made clock that business was practically impossible.
