12h per cent. and I am one Of this
cities citizens that want to thank the
ladies that are against this move and
hope that others will follow suit, and
not stand for this advance. This com
pany has had things all their own way
and on the nearness of summer they
step right out and inform the people
that they will make this increase
when they know that they have things
just where they want them, and there
is no chance to be forced into COM
petition with some one else as the ice
is already placed out of reach.
Does this look right? No. the people
of this city have faced the high cost
of living like little majors. There is
good reason for some of these adj
vances. owing to the scarceness of
different products. but surely there was
no scarcity of ice this year. and IL
anything the product is better and the
ice more solid owing to the extremely
cold weather. This would mean it was
better for the ice company as the ice
would be solid and there would be less
shrinkage in the houses where it is
stored.
The claim that harness is high and
other things is a very poor excuse, and
the ice company has had a very fine
business in a city of this size alone,
but this will have a tendency to wake
things up and call the matter before
our city commissioners. and IL we are
not inclined to put in a plant of our
own. we can at least invite outside
competition in here and not have a
condition of this kind happen again.
AS citizens of America we are now
asked to save our foodstuffs more
than ever. and try to economic as
much as possible. and to do this we
will want ice. and right away our only
fnn MOI l1cs fnfs a V0ny NnNf
advance. There is no question in my
mind but what these people will lose
more business and have a greater loss
on this proposition. than il they stuck
to their old scale which was not bad
one for them. when you stop to con-
slider that we had to pay cash in adj
vance for the books and give them the
interest on thousands Of dollars each
year. A cash business is good but
pay in advance has them all beat, so
where have these people any kick
coming on their ice business?
1t is too bad that we have not at
this, time the chance to take our ice
from Mr.. Gallagher or Martin Olson,
who have retired from the business.
We have great little city here. and
a very fine lot Of people who want to
pay their bills, and they want to be
used right, and live and let others live,
do not in a sense blame the Fargo
Detroit Ice Co. if they can get this
advance. but for one will use very
little ice this summer but will look
to the old reliable, cellar or hole in the
ground.
In conclusion will say that would
like to have these people reconsider their
increase on ice for the bet
terment and satisfaction OF their
customers. and the people of Fargo.
Very respectfully,
Jay Kavanaugh,
Fargo, N. d.

Fargo Citizens Comment
on Proposed Raise Of Ice


To the Editor: In a recent issue o.
| The Forum the Fargo Detroit Ice Co
issued a statement in defense of the
| announced advance of the price of ict
in Fargo. The essential idea of Their
statement was to the effect that since
the cost Of labor and materials hac
advanced during the, fall and winter
even more than the per cent advance
in price of Ice announced, therefore
the company is justified in raising the
price. The connecting thought in their
argument they forgot to state. per
haps because it would not justify their
claim 80 well as without it. The omit
ted step in the argument Is that if the
price of ice were not advanced the
stockholders would receive lower
dividends this year and that of course
would be a crime. The real question
which interests the population of Far
go, however. is whether the returns
upon the investment in years past
have merely been just. equable divi-
dends and the prices asked an honest
charge for the value received by the
public. II such is not the case, and
many feel that the cost Of ice has been
excessive. then lower prices for ice
and lower dividends for the stockhold-
ers are the only just adjustment for
this year. All consumers of all prod
ucts are getting less for their money,
and hence their actual income is great
ly reduced, so why should stockholders
be the only class of income receiving
people who have lowered incomeR 1t
is certainly brazen assumption that
the income of the Fargo Detroit Ice
Co. should remain as high, as ever
while the great mass of our people are
suffering a sharp reduction in their
purchasing income. This same state
ment would hold for all companies
and corporations, and the people see
only justice in the action Of certain
concerns which have absorbed the
extra cost of their product and have
not raised the price to any marked
degree.
The FargorDetroit Ice Co. states its
willingness for our city commission to
make an examination into the facts.
1t is to be sincerely hoped that these
gentlemen accept the invitation. and
in their examination discover and re-
cord the paid up stock Of the company,
the cost of production and the average
annual receipts and dividends since
the organization Of the company. Let
these figures be published so that the
populace may know the facts and II
then it appears that the stockholders
are due dividend upon their shares
the public will be perfectly willing TO
pay an increased price for ice.
Patriotism means sacrifice OF all
citizens, but not the sacrifice OF the
majority that the small minority may
get full dividends while the majority
is receiving less than normally. BY
all means let there be an Investigation
and make it thorough.
