The Cost of Thjnqs

% the Editor OF the Evening Public Ledger:
sir-we are continually being told OF the
reduction In prices by the wholesaler. and
how they are bringing down the high cost OF
living to the retailer. What we need Is the
retailer to practice less prohteerins on the
public. We are told today that Ice cream
has come down three cents a quart to the
retailers. from twenty-eight to twenty-five
cents. When the retailer was paying
twenty-eight cents he charged the public
sixty cents a quart, thereby gaining a pront
of more than 100 per cent. This Is an out
rage upon the public, for the wholesaler 10
not making n quarter OF that per cent proht'
He must purchase the material, make the
cream, pack It and pay for Its delivery
and place It in the retailers store, and all
tho retailer does Is to take spoon ana
dish Il out making more than 1Oo per
cent In this way on regular bowl service
and more than 200 per cent on the Ice cream
cone sales. .,, -
II Is the general rule for the public 70
blame the high cost of everything on 'he
manufacturer, but this is not the case
know for a fact where a firm pays "a 20
and SO for shoes that retail at slz. SiS
