Our Business Quite,

Small independent businesses

big business interest in the form Of
huge corporations arc spending
millions OF dollars yearly for adj
vertising their goods and services
irorder that the buying public
be made price CONSCIOUS" For
ten years and longer the newspaper
columns and the radio have through
paid advertisement educated the
consumer to this end. An example

really believes that this condition

THE TRUTH or THE MATTER
WAS THAT THE WHOLESALER
HAD OvERRATED THE INTEL

as he really Is. Most Of them feel
that they know all that Is TO he
