February, so that unemployed work- n in the clothing industry could be gMen employment. In June 1916 i the company was xncorporatea witn a capi-r tal -tock of $60,000 and Mr. Nash as the prime moyer and. principal investor was elected, president. " N - In July 1919 the company moved into more commodious quarters on? the strength of avloan of $50,000 from aj u nc xt i. ..hj tt ees the ith the Golden lule proclaimed as the govr erning law of the business "fllr.'-N-sh submitted h profit sharing plan;.6 the employees. Their confidence in Nash was such that' the employees refused to acceptUhe plan but said . they pre ferred to , ha ve , their ' pay each week land were willing to leave , it to : the management to figure-jout: what they wuiu u could pay in weekly wage. Wages were thereupon increksed from time to time. At the end of 1919 the- company found that despite the wage increases and the enormous expense of. moving and equipping the new.-plant it had made a net profit of $42,000 on and invest men tof $60,000. . '" - The actual condition at that time was t that the company was paying higher wages, selling its product for less money and" earning a-darger pro fit than any ofJts associates in bus-, inessX- ; : Mr Nash i says that these figures were submitted to Hbe employees and that he felt chargriried because it was his belief, that' an. unjustifiiable pro fit "was- madebff the; labor of others.
