companied by wage reductions
and the lowering of purchas-

ards of living. The price-cut-
ter, who sells without a pro-
fit, weakens the business
structure of the community

in business knows this and
most men are eager to ob-

line of business is bringing
run and chaos to the whole

Lower prices of commodi-
ties mean lower wages for
the working man. This, means
a lower standard of living. No
one is helped by price-cutting
—not even the consumer. It
does no one any good for low
prices to prevail if there is
no money with which to pur-

The reason why some
towns seem to do things and

there lives a citizen or two
who believes the things can

knockers and doubters and
does the job. Trace any com-
munity development down, in
any city, and you will find,
if you go back to the begin-
ning of it, that some man
started the movement and
stayed with it until the job
was done. It might be to
note also in this connection
that no program of develop-
ment was ever unanimous
when it was started. Every
community has a number who

then climb on to join the

Several of these price wars
have raged in Texas during
the past few years. Houston
and other large cities have
seen their dairying indus-
tries almost put out of busi-
ness because of price wars.
Milk has been poured into
the streets because the dairy-
men could not afford to sell
it at prevailing prices.
Such competition is costly
to all who engage in it. No
one is benefited in the end.
Fair prices, permitting a rea-
sonable profit, should prevail.
The President has sounded
the plea which is also a
warning. Destructive price
wars must cease.—Denison
Herald.
