The idea of a reasonable profit and a
reasonable wage maintains all along the
line of selling, from raw material TO ultl-

Whenever the manufacturer finds his
product for sale at a price less than the
price he has put upon il for the retail
trade. he finds an agent working against
him and his business and the well-being
of the workers in his pay. the same as If
he had found this agent planting dyna-
mite under the walls of his factory.

Should you choose for your side, the

to bride you, and to rob you LATER
on. or the seller who not only advocates
but is working for federal incorpora-
