Sales of, say, 336,000 per annum would, therefore, have a de- livery etlatomers paying $700 and the carry ouetomera alai paying 3700, though reoeiving no service therefor, The carry customers, however, are doing more than this, Had all the partials been delivered, the delivery cost would have heel a delivery charge of eight per Dent added to the original coat of the goods, Under the delivery system, the sore - ice rendered and paid for is es follows : The carry customer receives $1.00 worth of goods and pays $1.04. The delivery customer receives $i,ou worth of goods and eight Ceuta worth of delivery. -.$1,o8, for which he pays only $1,04. Another phase of delivery cost is the number of small orders delivered to One customer, If the oust of each delivery, which averages six to ten cents, were added to eaoh small order, the custom• er would object, Consequently, it is added on a percentage basis, and thus the customer who groups his wants and places an order of larger amount is multosd l0 the delivery -cost of service supplied to the lees considerate custom er, Thus, under the present delivery sys- tem, a aur -tax is placed upon the oust- omer who carries his parcels and is con siderate 10 ordering, while the oustom er who requires delivery aervioe does not pay for the service received, Canada is sufferltig from shortage of man -power; all available help is requir- ed for production, Deliveries should be restricted to one per day. all parcels of reasonable weight should be carried home and, so far as possible, cooperat- ive deliveries should be established.
