Lake Resident Says He
Was Arrested And No
Previous Notice

To the Editor:
1t was quite interesting to read
the statements made by the patroling
Game Wardens of Deep Greek Lake.
The writer was fined $26.75 on the
spot by the Deputy, who was alone.
He collected and gave no receipt.
This was on June IA, 1947 for not
having life preservers and a boat
number. No notice was given, no
warning about any change in regu-
latlons was given at any time, Our
neighbor, when securing his motor
boat permit, asked about rowboats
and was told without further state
ment that rowboatS needed no license.
This Deputy claimed notice Of new
regulations was in all the papers.
We are Pittsburgers and saw no such
notice there which was only natural.
He also claimed notice was posted at
Point View and at Stone Tavern. Hav-
ing two small children doesn't allow
much time for any tavern loafing
He also claimed our other neighbors
knew, but we cannot associate too
closely as they have no children and
we do
Our neighbor, who made the in
quiry about rowboats, was stopped,
weeks after securing a license and
assigned the U. S. Coast Guard, about
his Maryland number not being on
the boat The writer and the neigh
Dor returned to the cottage and Sc
cured the license and the copy of the
act or law. We pointed out the regu-
laitons and permit where it reads
"Where a Federal number has been
assigned by the United States Coast
Guard, that number shall be assigned
by the commission" The Deputy
stated that the Law was very poorly
written and that new ones were made
since. However, these same regu-
lations were recently given with each
boat permit or rowboat number.
Everything has funny side, how
ever. When assisting the Deputy at
tach his boat to my dock, he asked
me for identification. | had on only
a pair of swimming trunks This,
after fifteen summers in the same
cottage and owing a rowboat and
canoe an equal number of years.

Here at Harvester we are con-
cerned over the fact that a
growing number of our prod
ucts are appearing on the re-
sale market at greatly inflated
prices.
AS manufacturers, we try to
produce at the lowest possible
cost. We cannot set the prices
at which our products-trac-
tors, motor trucks, farm i'm
plements, refrigeration, and in
dustrial power equipment-are
sold. We can and do suggest
list prices which the great ma
jority of our dealers adopt as
their retail prices.
$40, 900, 900 Price Reduction
Our basic price policy was
publicly stated in March, 1947,
when we announced price re-
ductions at the rate of approx
mately $2O,OOO,OOO per year
on our products. At that time,
Fowler Mccormick, Chairman
of the Board, said: ANY PRICE
is TOO HIGH If 1T CAN BE RE-
DUCED."
Practically all of our dealers
cooperated with this policy and
passed on the savings to their
customers.
The objective of the price
reductions was to make it pos
sible for customers to buy our
products, which they need SO
badly, at lower prices. Natu-
rally, this purpose is defeated
when our products are sold by
anybody at inflated prices.

danger the good will of both
the dealer and the Company in
any community.
Distribution to Customers
Experience shows that many
III new products are being re-
sold by users who decide they
can continue to make out with
their old equipment after they
have had all inflated offer for
their new equipment. To elimi-
nate this, many dealers are
taking measures to be sure that
equipment purchased is for
their customers own use and
is not to be resold.
Nearly all III dealers, we be-
lieve, are now using the basis
of PRESENT NEED as their pri-
mary guide for the sale of
scarce products. The customer
whose need is real and urgent
is not likely to resell.
What Price Should
You Pay?
While it may take a little more
time to get delivery, we urge
our customers to consider all
of the factors mentioned here,
before paying more than the
list price for any III product.
Any III dealer or branch can
furnish the suggested list price
for any III product.
We know that the over
whelmin9 majority of III deal
ers are as much opposed to in
hated prices as we are. In the
public interest, we have al
ready asked their cooperation
and are now asking the CO.
operation of customers-in
correcting this situation.

the difference between supply
and demand. To increase sup
ply, we now have the greatest
number of employees in history
on our payrolls-almost 100000
in the United States, as against
about $4,000 prewar. Large
newplants are getting intopro-
duction in Louisville, Evans
Vile, and Melrose Park. A
fourth will soon be in opera
ton in Memphis. The men and
women now employed are
turning out the greatest guam
titles of III products of all
kinds that we have ever made.
These are also the finest prod
ucts we have ever made, and
recognition of that fact is an
important contributing factor
to the demand for them.
Distribution to Dealers
But even record breaking pro-
duction is not sufficient to give
your dealer other III
dealers-enough products to
meet today's demand. We have
tried to make the fairest posi-
BILE geographical allocation of
our products so that every
dealer would get a fair share,
and we know that dealers, in
most cases, have tried earnestly
to make the fairest possible
distribution to their customers.
But we also know that many
of our products-far too many
are being resold at inflated
prices. The public criticism and
resentment of these resales are
of real concern to us, as we
know they must be to our deal
ers, because such reactions en-
