The Story Of Dun’s Agency

“The Memantile Agency" was the subject of an address given at the Rotary luncheon yesterday by Rotarian A. L. MacPherson, 10¢. a1 representative for Dunn and Bradstreet. He dlociiised the purposes and fonnation of such an agency. ss- tablished. in New York in 184i. be- ginning with one small mom and less than half a dozen clerks, and now growing into s. big concern with more than 16,000 employees, branch offices in a.ll the principal cities od,’ the world, and more than 100,000 correspondents in the less important business centres. The speaker reviewed the circumstances under which the mercantile agen- cy came into existence some 85 or 100 years ago. At that time it was customary for the western and southern traders to visit theeast- ern wholesale merchants and man- ufacturers twice a year to make their purchases in person. Tho prevailingsystein was a six months credit on all transactions. This was a crude system, and as the count- ry expanded it showed an increas- Ing tendency to break down. Means of travel and communication were sill unctertain. and if the letter of introduction failed to convey suf- ficient information upon which to extend credit withVsa-IQIIY- Aurelie. might elapse before it could suit‘ piemented. In the meantime. the buyer would go elsewhere for his

and a valuable account would be lost. Periods of depression oc- curred frequently in which the 955°‘ em squat-s lost heavily owln8 W the inability of the western buyers to meet their obligations.
