ing at the retail level has already
passed through Three Revolutions
since 1875
Great Changes Sipce 1875
Preceding those days there were
no mail order houses or depart
ment stores, q few chain stores
A & p had so stores which car
iied only tea coffee. and crock
eryt. but many Wholesale houses
and independent merchants They
were doing 95' of the retail
business My father was one Of
ti1ese in Gloucester. Mass
The First Revolution in retail
lax was brought on by the de-
partment stores and mail order
houses This made It unneeess-
ary TO visit different stores, If you
llred in Il city. while. II you lived
III the country. you could shop by
man from your farm. This Re-
volution was desperately fought
hg the old time retailers. The
Second Revolution came with the
chain stores. which cut out the
wholesalers The q e par m en- {
stores continued TO buy through
wholesalers but the chains
bought direct from the manu-
facturerS Hence they were
fought by legislation enacted at
tfJr demand OF the middlemen.
Discount Houses Now Target
The THIRD Revolution is now
on, being caused by the discount
houses This Is an effort To re-
duce retail prices by cutting out
the bureauracy, high rents and
unnecessary overhead developed
BY the department stores But. "A
Fourth Revolution, as a revolt
against parking meters. automo-
bile congestion. and lack OF
sufficient free parking. is lust
ahead OF Us.
