it, Necessity to Aid Consumer

Many big industries engaged in
national trade have often in the
past done openly what the small
Concerns in their limited fields have
done secretly-variedt prices accord
ing to the degree Of competition at
different times and places. Their
object has been to secure the high
est price to be had, irrespective of
whether the buyer was held up or
not. ~
The principle Of selling goods at
s a close margin at one place to meet
or 10 kill competition, and charg-
ing O high price, to makeup for 1t.
where little or no competition ex-
Z lists, is economically wrong and un-
fair to the buyer. Every article Of
fcred for sale should have a uni
form price plainly married upon IT.
.Manufacturcrs will then have to
see that the price Of their goods is
q reasonable one, SO they will sell,
and at the same time they will
provide enough profit to Eapay the
jobber and dealer fairly for hand
ling tho goods at q uniform price.
This will inspire confidence in the
consumer, because he will know the
price can not be cut n must,
permit tho goods to sell. He will
buy such goods in preference to a
Snail selling. article sold at exag-
Gerated profits.
Everybody will benefit from price
maintenance in this way. It will
protect the manufacturerIwho has
built up w~cll-krown brands, also
