Second Shetland Truck System Report Mr. Laurenson says he gets no profit on hosiery, except the profit on the goods he gets in exchange. Second Shetland Truck System Report In some places, indeed, there are two prices for goods, according as they are paid for with hosiery or with money; and formerly this was the custom in Lerwick. Second Shetland Truck System Report I said I had paid money,-because it is an understanding that some shops can give it for less with money than with hosiery. Second Shetland Truck System Report Supposing there was a merchant here who paid for goods altogether in money, would you prefer to take your hosiery to him?-Yes; Second Shetland Truck System Report Do you think you take a higher profit on your goods in consequence of accepting payment for them in hosiery rather than in cash?-No; Second Shetland Truck System Report Although Mr. Sinclair has the largest transactions in lines, they are resorted to when required by most of the merchants who buy hosiery or fancy goods. Second Shetland Truck System Report But there is a general concurrence of testimony to the effect that goods got by knitters at the hosiery shops are dearer than at other shops in Shetland. Second Shetland Truck System Report Various merchants admit that a higher profit is charged, in consequence of the custom of paying in hosiery. Second Shetland Truck System Report Are there drapery shops now in Lerwick that do not deal in hosiery?-Yes.'

Second Shetland Truck System Report Do you deal in hosiery to a considerable extent?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report Does a man's wife keep her own book for hosiery and settle it herself?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report I think, if I had been in a position like that, I would have given them less for their hosiery, and sold the articles to them at a fixed price. Second Shetland Truck System Report The profit I have is upon the goods which I sell in exchange for the hosiery which I buy. Second Shetland Truck System Report Then you have no objection to the practice which exists with regard to the hosiery trade?-No; Second Shetland Truck System Report I would not pay the price he charged, and would have taken my article of hosiery back rather than pay it. Second Shetland Truck System Report Therefore there are not only two prices for hosiery, but there are two prices for goods bought with hosiery?-Yes; Second Shetland Truck System Report There are some merchants who make it all one price together; the same when hosiery is paid for the goods as when they are paid for in cash. Second Shetland Truck System Report But if there was no such thing as paying hosiery with goods, you could sell your goods a little cheaper, because you must calculate upon a little loss on the hosiery?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report Do you sometimes get your hosiery paid up at the time?- Second Shetland Truck System Report And they bring it, and sell it back to you when made into articles of hosiery?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report Do you think, as regards the hosiery trade, that it would be expedient for cash to be paid instead of goods as at present?- Second Shetland Truck System Report Does the same objection apply to the long settlements with the fishermen which you make with regard to the system of paying for the hosiery?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report So that both the customers who pay in hosiery, and those who pay in cash, are made to pay for a possible loss upon the hosiery?-Yes. Second Shetland Truck System Report There is often a long settlement in the payment for the hosiery too. Second Shetland Truck System Report Do you think the system of paying for hosiery in goods is a good one?-No; Second Shetland Truck System Report There is an account run for the payment of hosiery with many of the women. Second Shetland Truck System Report In your part of the country, are provisions given for hosiery as well as goods?-Yes, Second Shetland Truck System Report There are no hosiery dealings carried on there?-No. Second Shetland Truck System Report I think the hosiery should be paid for in money, and the goods sold at the same price. Second Shetland Truck System Report Is that book used entirely for sales of hosiery?-No. Second Shetland Truck System Report We don't do a great deal in hosiery.
