Excerpt from Keeping Up With Rising Costs
Average cost of doing business figures from over one thousand five hundred distributive concerns make this book different from any other ever published. Never before has it been possible to obtain figures of this sort from American merchants, for they have been jealously guarded "trade secrets." It has been a blind race against rising costs with "the devil take the hindmost." If business is actually growing into a new profession - the greatest of all the professions - then the fifteen hundred-odd men who forgot the "trade secret" bogey and made this book possible belong among the founders of that profession.
There is not space for the one thousand five hundred names, otherwise they would be printed here as fully as the confidential conditions under which the figures were collected would permit, for each merchant deserves as much commendation as the next. They are therefore referred to in a group - a group that binds together by a high ideal men with both large and small material interests: John Wanamaker and John Bellaire; Edward A. Filene and Edward P. Russell, and so on through the long list.
Although it is not possible to mention individually all who contributed figures and methods to the book, reference must be made to a number of the private, public and semi-public organizations that have given generous assistance. These have laboriously collected cost figures, and their results, when correlated with the other costs obtained in the field by System's investigators, in no small degree give the book its authority. They also are too numerous for mention in full, but the following particularly deserve the thanks of those who find use for the hundreds of tested means of expense control given in the pages that follow:
The National Dry Goods Association; The National Association of Commissary Managers; The National Pipe and Supply Association; The Electric Vehicle Association of America (William P. Kennedy's delivery costs); The National Shoe Wholesalers' Association; The National Association of Retail Grocers of America; The Bureau of Business Research; Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration; The Extension Division, University of Wisconsin; The National Hardware Association of the United States; The National Boot and Shoe Manufacturers' Association; The National Shoe Retailers' Association; The National Wholesale Grocers' Association; The National Retail Hardware Association; The Harvard Cooperative Society; The General Fire Extinguisher Company; Robert H. Ingersoll and Brother; Marshall Field and Company; The Curtis Publishing Company; and Wilson Brothers.
To these and to all who have helped to make this volume possible, grateful recognition is now extended.
