We're always talking so much
about ceiling prices, and urging
customers not to pay a penny

how important that penny over
charge really is"
Mr.. Cooper shuffled his scrib-
bled papers. Suppose we're
charged just one penny too much,
say, on a can of grapefruit juice.
Not two cents or three cents,
mind you . but just one cent
a can. That's not so bad, maybe.
But suppose, all over America,
everybody were charged that one
cent too much"
He checked has figures again.
Our annual pack of grapefruit
juice is around two billion cans.
If every can were sold for a
penny too much, that would be a
total overcharge of twenty mil
lion dollars a year! That would
be one tidy sum of money, going
down the drain.
"Or suppose every pound of
coffee we buy from our grocer
was marked a penny above cell.

annual consumption per person
is sixteen pounds or around
two and a half billion pounds a
