Counter-Jommino

I am shocked and dismayed
to learn that the President Of
the United States. forty years
after the advent Of the Com
munist Red gangster regime,
expressed establishment and
regret" over the Soviet jam
ming Of the broadcasts of the
proceedings Of the U. N. Cen
eral Assembly meeting on the
Middle East.
The Soviet regime has been
doing this for decades and we
lacked the courage to jam
them in retaliation out of the
air. Why shouldn't they con-
tinue to hamper our broad
casts with impunity?
With the best electrical
brains in the world right here
in America, it is inconceivable
that we could not have done
something about it before. Is
this one more of our appease-
ment activities? Is someone
in the State Departm e n t
afraid of doing his duty by
America? Anyone who ex-
poets the Soviet murderers to
treat us better than their own
people should have his head
examined. A regime which
has murdered millions of its
own flesh and blood and has
enslaved hundreds of mil
lions of people at home and
abroad for years should not be
expected to act more kindly
towards us, especially in view
of the manner in which we
have been behaving in all our
dealings with the Soviets.
Where is our backbone?
Where is our self-respect? No
money should be spared in
developing a counter-offen
sive in the air to drown them
out completely.

Within our kind of society,
we must protect all citizens

and every citizen in the Com

the deeper meaning of Flaw

Crisis in Virqiniu

AS we approach crltlcal
days in Virginia, it is of the
graveSt Importance that all
citizens contribute positively
to Flaw and order" We
should, therefore, pause to
consider what the phrase
means, for back Of the police
mans stick lie certain prin-
cipleS.
Basic to the idea of Flaw
and order" is human dignity.
We believe that the indi-
vidual's character is not to
be willfully destroyed or
damaged by the words or acts
of another. We aim to be
the kind of society in which
each person can feel safe
from violence. We believe
that the law must protect all
citizens-their families and
homes, their places of work
end worship. We are con-
cerned about something far
deeper and more meaningful
than preventing street Incl
dents, as important as that
also is.
Citizens of Virginia today
are a people deeply troubled.
We hope that our public
schools will open without in
cident and remain open, yet
we are not at all sure what
will happen in the next few
weeks. There are serious diff
ferenceS among us as to how
to meet the Federal court
orders, and some find it diff
cult to remember Jefferson's
admonition: II tolerate with
the utmost latitude the right
of others to differ from me
in opinion without imputing
to them criminality."
In the dreary course of
drift and defiance, former
bases of understanding and
communication between white
and Negro citizens have been
lost. A few agitators seem
poised and ready to make the
most of trouble, if not to
cause it. The eyes of the
Nation and the world are on
Virginia, September, 1858.
In such an atmosphere it
is particularly important that
citizens and public officials
pause now to think about the
full meaning of law and or
der" Virginia's reco I'd is
vastly better than that of
other deep-South States, and
public opinion can help to
keep it that way. We must
watch for danger signals.
I regard it as unfortunate
that the Governor and some
other leaders have said that
if schools are closed it will be
the fault of q few Negro
families - those whose pleas
have been upheld by the
courts. This may be mis-
interpreted by irresponsible
elements as an invitation to
harass and intimidate these
families. Such families have
been acting by peaceful and

For Fair Trade


John A. George, in his let
ter. INDUCES in phrases such
as free competition, free en-
terprise, etc." He tries to
convey the wrong impression
that fair trade prices are the
maximum prices and that
the fair trade law protects
the inefficient businessman.
The opponents of fair
trade have one thing in COM
monte conceal the true
facts and the benefits to the
consumer. They hide the I'LL
terror motives behind such
phrases as "the American
way" monopoly" price fix
Ing" etc.
Fair trade benefits the con-
sumner and all segments of the
population with the excep-
ton of the predatory mer-
chants whose primary func-
ton is to mislead the public
with certain 'loss leaders"
These loss leaders are bait,
which is made up of the most
prominently advertised prod
ucts, offered at prices less
than cost to attract custom
erS to their stores in great
numbers.
Losses from such sales are
considered by the operators
not as legitimate sales but
rather as advertising, and the
loss Of money from the sale
of such items is; in most in
stances, charged to advertiS-
ing expense. The customer,
being lured into the store
through the medium of loss
leaders, also purchases an I'M
known item with a mark-up
Of from so to 200 percent
profit. The customer, of
course, thinks that every item
in that store is less expensive
than elsewhere.
The so-called cut-rate store
is well organized to conduct
such practices. 1t trains sales
personnel to dissuade the
customer from buying the
loss leaders in great quanti-
ties and to recommend, rath-
er. an unknown brand as a
substitute. These are the so
to 200 per cent profit brands.
The sales clerk receives as
compensation for the sale of
these items a separate rebate
of from 5 to 10 per cent. This
extra rebate is known as PM
(push merchandise. A sep
arate record is kept by the
clerk for such sales. It rep
resents his bonus for an ex-
cellent job of misrepresen-
tation.
This practice is featured in
all cut-rate stores in the
country but is doubly effec-
tive in States without fair
trade and especially here in
the District of Columbia.
Sometimes an entire depart
ment of a store may be sac
riflced as a loss leader in
order to bring in a crowd to
whom merchandise of differ
ent departments can be sold
at great profit.
Fair trade would eliminate
all these tactics. 1t would
safeguard the consumer by
enabling him to get wanted
items at the normal mark
up price. 1t protects the
manufacturers by preventing
predatory operators from US
ing their advertised known
brands as bait. 1t protects
the honest retailer from I'M
fair competition. It is indeed
amazing how this one law
could benefit the greatest
segment of our population.
The fair-trade bill pending
in Congress would abolish the
abuses so cherished by the
discount merchants who
thrive on the gullibility Of
consumers. 1t would, of course.
remove their hidden tool Of
disappearing to the pub
lie.
