An Experiment

You hear that apples are lot
cheaper out in the country than at
your store, or at market.
Very well. Go to the country
and get them at the lower price.
Then you have become the mid
dleman and paid yourself the cost
of "middlemanning." You have
eliminated one middleman-but
you have substituted another.
Why? Because the middlemen's
work had to be done.
Your time is worth something
and it costs you something to go to
the country and come back. You
are not selling your time or trans
portation at cost. If you were per-
forming the service for someone
else, you would add a proft-just
as any middleman does. And if
you don't add profit, even when
you are dealing with yourself, you
are in losing business and had
better spend your time doing
SOMETHING ELSE at which you
CAN earn a profit.

You want i certain article.

pect to find it there, waiting for
you. You are disappointed and
perhaps peeved' if it isn't

The retailer is a middleman. He
stands between YOU and the man.
ufacturer or producer
You will admit, perhaps, that he
is a NECESSARY niddleman. If
so, the clerks that work for him
all of his enaployes-are middle
men," too. Perhaps you are one Of
them.
Ought you to be eliminated?
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1921-02-23

Now and then you hear
more or less talk about "elimi-
mating the niddleman."
This nliddleman" is the
fellow, some folks say, who IS
a big factor is keeping prices
up" That is, he adds to the
cost of things, unnecessarily.
We're all interested in fair
and reasonable prices. And
if this nliddleman" is the
source Of any of our discom-
forts, we ought to tend 10 him.
But it might surprise you to
know who this 'middlenlan'
is.
You are the middlemau.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1921-02-23
Now the Jobber

But, there's the jobber. How
about him? He's about the only
one left-and if we're going to find
q middlenan to eliminate, the job
ber's about our last chance.
Is the jobber necessary? What
does HE do.
Stated in the simplest way, the
jobber assemblies from various dis
tant manufacturers stocks of their
goods and holds these stocks at the
instant disposal Of retailers III his
immediate riciniN.
The jobber serves the retailer.
just as the retailer serves you.
The jobber doesn't add to the
cost Of transportation. He does
have a stock of goods Immediately
available for retailers-retailers
not financially able to carry the
large investment that would other
wise be necessary if they were to
buy all they needed, and then ware
house their reserve stocks.
So, if YOU, the buyer, are to be
well-served, someone MUST per-
form the jobber's function-wheth-
crit be the retailer himself-or the
jobber.
1t would seem, then, that the
jobber, too, is a NECESSARY
"middleman." But, if he is a mid
dleman, so are all Of his employees
who help him do his job. And per-
haps you are one of them!

For You to Answer

Thus, when we talk Of "eIiminat-
ing" the ''middleman," we are, in
effect, talking about eliminating
the railroad employees, the clerks,
the bookkeepers, the carriers, the
statesmen, the travelling men, sal
aried eXecutives-good and useful
citizens-in activities without
snumber.

Railroad Men, Too

It cost something to bring that
article from the manufacturer or
producer, to the dealers shelves.

the manufacturer. Yes, but you
say that the railroad is a necessary
''middleman" You are right. But,
if SO, all of the railroads employees
are "middlemer," 100. for they
make it possible for the railroad
to serve You.
Shall we eliminate them?
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1921-02-23
Here's the Way

No! The real answer to what
ever troubles may exist isn't in
eliminating anything.
The things that would help are:
A more complete understanding
Of our mutual dependence-cour-
age, falkland action!
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1921-02-23

What are these costs? They
are the costs Of transporta-
ton, handling, storage, mer-
chandisin9, investment, cred
it, collections, delivery, etc.
Let's see whether they are
accessory.

How Low?

Prices have been high-but SO
have wages. Many prices have
been TOO high. They may not, in
many cases, have been justified.
If SO, these evils, like the turbulent
conditions which gave rise to them
in the last few years-are ALSO
Of the past.
Prices are Iotoer now. They are
fairer. It's difficult to say how
much lower or how much fairer
they should or can be. Who can
judge THAT?
We know this: If by insisting
by Withholding our purchase-we
force prices down too far, wages
must and will foIIow them dotrn.
IF prices seem reasonably fair now,
as they do, let's BUY.

a New Thought

This isn't at all in line with
what you have been thinking,
Of course. The popular idea
is that the retailer or the job
her, or some other hay and
distant person is the middle
man a needless individual
who ought to be stepped on
But, think a minute,
What IS a middleman?'
Ordinarily, the middle
man is defined as any per
son OF persons that stand be
tween the producer and tie
ultimate buyer 10H.
And the nidd1eman's costs
are the costs that stand be
tween the producer and you
the buyer
If we object to the middle
man, it is because we object
To The cost of the service he
renders If any.

menace of war.

darkened, so that their sacrifice shall
not have been in vain. In the name
