DON'T BLAME PROFITS

A short time ago survey was
made OF the way families are at
tempting to meet current living
costs. Heavy majorities reported
that they were buying only nee
essities, doing without things,
and trying to make food and
clothing go farther. They also
repored, generally spanking, that
it was necessary to spend a
higher proportion of their in
come for food.
This is the inevitable conse-
quence of an initiation which
has not yet spents it's course.
Some groups have managed to
inrease their earnings suffici-
emily to offset price increases.
Some have bettered their posi-
tons. Millions Of people, on the
other hand, have been forced to
steadily reduce their purchasing,
and there is no relief in sight.
1t, is easy and perhaps natural
to blame business for creating
this problem. From various
quarters, we hear OminOus talk
Of the size of industrial profits.
Retail stores have been picketed
by people with angry banners
protesting the going prices OF
food, clothing and just about
everything else. Natural or not,
this attitude is based on serious
miscontained by the owners OF
the tools millions of investors
who have put their savings in
industry-are one of the small
lest items in the cost of doing
business. And surveys of retail
trade, including both the chains
and the independents, show that
most stores earn profit of only
one to five or six cents, accord
ing to type Of goods sold, out of
each dollar they take in. Ger
tainly, there is no margin there
is no margin there that will per-
nit price cutting.
Business of all kinds is, as
worried about high prices as
any consumer. 1t nows that mass
production and mass distribution
cannot survive if people cannot
afford to buy. Prices have up
in spite of its efforts to hold
them down.
