"this our net profit has not only been reduced to a

miserable figure of 1% but the size of the business

has also suffered from, or would at any rate have been

bigger had it not been for the increased prices. We

can, of course, not usually exist on a mere 1% net

profit but it was a question of doing the business or

not, and we cannot afford withdrawing a quality which

has just been introduced. So we did the business in

the hope of getting rewarded for the sacrifice made in

1914 by increased return during 1915."
