The fact is that the antitrust lawyers ask the court to break up the com

in general destroy many of the efhciencies which have enabled it to sell food

1t Will Destroy A&P

The antitrust lawyers have repeatedly stated that the suit will not result
in the closing of a single APP store" and that the purpose of the suit is
to enon APP from continuing activity which has been held to violate
the law
The fact is that the suit is designed not only to 'enioin' AMP from alleged
illegal activities, but actually to destroy the company.
Here is what they have asked the court to do:
Break up APPS retail stores into seven groups, each of which must
be sold to different owners, and operated under new management.
Order us to sell APPS factories, which produce many of the fine foods
you find in III stores, TO still other ew owners.
Prevent any of the seven groups of stores from operating any of The
factories.
None of the present owners, who have made APP what it is today,
can have anything to do with either the stores or the factories.
The first ASP store a opened go years ago. For the past SO years the

J one thought he'd stick IL out, the
way he loved to eat. But today,
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-12-02

Since that time, however, the antitrust lawyers have been max
ing speeches, talking over the radio, writing letters and giving
stories to the newspapers, in which they say we are all wrong.
They say that this suit will not close a single APP store; and
that instead of raising food prices it will lower them.
And they have tried to give the impression that nobody will be
hurt by this decision except the present owners of APP.
We don't think that the American people want to be confused by
these statements. We know that when they have the facts, they
will understand that this case can affect the living standards and
the way of life of every American citizen.
Here are the facts:
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-12-02

company has been managed by George L. Hartford and John A. Hartford.
these are the men who have pioneered the policy of low-cost, low-proht.
lowprice food retailing which has won APP the patronage of millions of
American families and given them more good food for their money.
II the antitrust lawyers have their way, these e and other company
executives will be completely out of the picture. No one ian predict what
the policies of the new owners of the various parts of APP will be.
No one can predict that they will sell the same quality food at the same
low prices, or that they will keep the same employees, or give them the
same high wages, short hours, pensions and security.
Nor. despite the antitrust lawyers statement, a anyone tell how many
AMP stores will remain open Or will be closed.
So, while there may be a food store where your APP is now located, N
won't be your APP store.
Make no mistake about it. IF the antrtrust: lawyers win their suit it will
mean the end of APP as you know it. --@
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-12-02

IF APP is destroyed, no businessman could safely pursue an aggressive
sales policy designed to lower prices and give his customers a better deal
it by so doing he takes business away from any competitor. -4~~
Even If the antitrust lawyers have no intention now of prosecuting other
suits a decision against APP will establish precedent that could be used
by the present antitrust lawyers, or any future antitrust lawyers, to destroy
any efficient business that buys cheaply, sells cheaply. and grows big in
the process. wAu ~
Such a decision would mean the end of the vigorous, healthy price cons
petition which has given this country the highest standard of living ever
enjoyed by any people anywhere in the history of the world.
The antitrust lawyers are trying to give a new Interpretation to the anti.
trust laws that, instead of preserving competition, will reduce competition.
They are trying, by court decision, to impose a new kind of economic policy
on the people of this country. go
Make no mistake about it. If they succeed in destroying ARP they will be
destroying the method of distribution that has helped make the American
standard of living the envy of the world,
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-12-02
Your Food Will Cost More

The antitrust lawyers have repeatedly stated that the suit will no. increase,
but should decrease, grocery prices.
Anybody who has shopped in IN APP store, or has ever taken a
highrschool course in economics, knows better than that.
Everyone knows that APPS policy has always been to keep costs and
profits at a minimum % that it can sell good food cheap.
The very heart of the antitrust lawyers case S that APPS methods, which
they claim are illegal, have enabled the company to undersel competitors.
How can anyone possibly say that you will get lower food prices by elmi-
mating the company that has done st much to bring them down?
Actually, there il n question that this suit, if successful, will mean higher
food prices for APP customers.
Here is just one of a number of reasons:
We manufacture many of the quality foods we sell in our stores, such
a Bokar, Red Circle and Eight O'Clock cofees, Ann Page foods, White
House milk, and many others.
The antitrust lawyers admit that we pass along these manufacturing
savings to or customers in the form of lower prices.

LONG DISTANCE SHOPPING

Washington tAP) Mail
order houses seem to do a big
business in the Pribilof Islands,
Alaska. The u. S. Fish and Wild
life Service saws $50 pounds of
mail were received there one day
and that 400 pounds were in cat,
alogs.
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-12-02

But, the antitrust lawyers have asked the court to order us TO get rid Of
our manufacturing facilities, which would put an end to- all these savings.
This means that if these APP brands continued to be manufactured, YOU
would have to pay higher prices for them wherever you found them. III
The antitrust lawyers say that food prices would go down in other stores
They claim that food manufacturers would be able to sell cheaper tt other
grocers because they would not have to make up alleged losses they now
incur in selling to APP. - ~v~ x~~ -r~an4f
This, OF course, is pure nonsense. The supples who voluntarily seek our
business and are now rushing to o r defense obviously find it profitable to
deal with APP. Actually, their sales to this company enable them to build
up their volume. reduce their COSTS, and sell more cheaply to all crocers
The elimination of APP from the picture would tend to increase. rather
than decrease. the wholesale cost of food; and this, in turn, will be reflected
in increases in retail prices.
Make no mistake about it If the antitrust LAWYERS succeed in putting Arp
out of business you will find your food bill is higher.

Don't Let Anybody Fool You!|
These Things Will Happen
If The Anti rust Lawyers Have Their Way

When the antitrust lawyers from Washington filed their suit
against APP, we told the American people, our customers, our
supplers and our employees how this attack would affect them.
We said that this attack, if successful. would mean the end of
APP as you know it.
We said that it would mean higher food prices ror American
consumers.
We said that if they succeed in destroying APP the way would
be cleared for the destruction of other efficient large-scale
retailers.
We thought the American people were entitled to know about
this threat to their welfare and standard of living.
