A LESSON IN CONTRASTS
From liberated areas of Europe
and Italy have come stories of shock-
ing contrasts in the living standards
of the people. While some groups
enjoy luxury and plenty, others
slowly starve in utter degradation.
According to news reports, the form-
er are members of a small minority
with enough money to secure com-
forts in the black market. Perhaps
this is the inevitable aftermath of
war and economic collapse in which
civilization gives way before the bru-
tal law of dog eat dog. Whatever it
is, Americans, who have been raised
in a nation where the emphasis has
been on an ever wider distribution
of necessities and luxuries, will shud-
der with compassion and thank God
they are here and not there.
It is not an accident that this na-
tion is the best fed and housed in the
world. That is the result of free
markets and unrestricted competi-
tion. For example, a few years ago
retail merchants developed the chain
store idea of merchandising because
they realized that expanded low-cost
service to consumers was the only
answer to the demands of competi-
tion. In meeting those demands, they
helped introduce healthier living
standards. Today the retail industry
is keyed to the needs of the masses.
The same is true of othe. industry
in the United States. Never before
have the productive activities of a
nation been directed so exclusively
toward benefiting all the people

Irrespective of temporarv risks or
theories, the United States must re-
establish free markets and unre-

or the American people will not con-
tinue to reap the full benefits of mass
production and distribution.—Indus-
