There Is speculation as te when the prices on ice cream and soda fountain l beverages are going to take a stumble in this city. Wednesday one Putnam man remarked, Mayor, Marcy told the city council a few weeks ago that he ] thought there are son1e merchants in l Putnam that. don't know .the war Is over. T. don't know about whom he was talking in particular, but It might have heen the soft drink and ice cream ven- dors, for their prices are stii1; up where | they were-in war days". The same l point of view is being taken by Putnam motorists who drive into; Massachusetts cities and find that thirsty soul can now get bis drink of orauseade or fem + - and lime Sy depostine . single nickel on the marble counters, of many of the shops. Carbonated. drinks have dropped in price in many of the larger cities. A party of tourists. came back from Springfield few. days age and anncMneed that. they had bought college ices for Is cents, and that straight ice cream could be had for dime. When one Of the largest dispensers of soft drinks in PUfnaNa was asked about this he ihtimated that the time would net be far of when Putnam prices weuld have to come down, too. He blamed the maintenance ef the high prices on tho wholesalers who continue te charge top prices for syTups and fruits, and who, he seid. seek to keep these top prices. in voEuesAs long as possible. An other Soda fountain manager In Put nam said he is buying his supplies in small lots because he thinks that q break in the wholesale prices Is certain to. come. and he has nc inclination tc be caught with . large supply bought al high prices and then De forced ito sen al lower. ones. A. cut in prices viii Affee- considerably the dealers profits. be cause wages are higher tkan before the war. alse the incidental fountain sup. piies are not fafttng back te pre-wai levels.
