ORDER 1920 SUIT NOW; THEY’LL COST $75.

Ordinary suits for men next spring will cost the wearer from SSO to $75 and the public is ready to pay that for a suit, Ludwig Stein, president of the National Clothing Manufacturers’ association, declared before the midwest reconstruction conference Wednesday of* retail clothiers meeting in Kansas City. Mr. Stein said cloth was and would be scarce because of labor shortage. He said that the tendency in men’s styles is slowly turning back to the plain models.
