One of the more important virtues of the tree market sys-
tem, as we know it in the United States, is that consumers
have it within their power to alter the system at their dis-
cretion. Never have a people enjoyed wider powers of free
choice than U. S. consumers. They live amidst the fruits
of this free choice with but one direction to turn—away from
the free market. That is what critics of such things as pro-
motion and advertising would have them do. These critics,
would cripple the system. It is hard to conceive of Amer-
ican consumers being so penny wise and pound foolish as to
listen to their preachments.

Like others who comment in a similar vein, the writer
manages to leave the impression that stamps and promotion
are parasitical contrivances that could be dispensed with if
conumers and retailers were a little smarter and the laws a
little tighter. No mention is made of the fact that nearly 50
minion households save trading stamps, or that trading
stamps as a time-tested form of promotion have a proven
place in the marketing mechanism of our mass-production,
mass-distribution system. Neither is there any mention of
the fact that promotion and advertising, by encouraging vol-
ume sales at minimum prices, have been the primary stim-
ulants that have made the U.S. standard of living the envy of
the world. This writer evades the close relationship be-
tween promotion and advertising and a free press.

The Belgian cardinal, who
has toured and been widely
read in the U.S., also inclu-
ded the papacy in his rem-
arks. He called the Pope
“a prisoner of‘the System”’
the same as the rest of the
hairarchy; he also said—ap-
parently referring to Hu-
manae Vitae, the recent and
stormy birth control docu-
ment—that encyclicals sh-
ould not be published before
wide and thorough consulta-
tion and collaboration.
Suenens' words also un-
derscored and added imme-
diacy to the local struggle
and conflict in the Archdio-
cese of San Antonio, between
its long-time Ordinary, Ro-
bert E. Lucey, and a large
segment of his priests and
people, which has been re-
cently punctuated with a th-
underclap by Pope Paul’sac-
ceptance of Lucey’s sudden
and unexplained resignation.
Although a man of no little
stature in “the old regime,"
it is a well known fact that
Bishop Lucey rigidly resis-
ted most of the trends to-
wards democratizing the San
Antonio Church. He had po-
sitive antipathy for the 160-
member San Antonio Priests
Association, out of which
came the driving desire and
first petition to Romefor his
resignation.
“The post-Vatican n bis-
hop,” said Cardinal Suenens,
“must come closer to his
clergy and faithful; he must
live as they do—even down to
the kind of clothes he wears
. .- .He must learn to enter
into dialog with his priests
and people, in the context at
the new priests' councilsand
pastoral councils. H must
get rid at a certain pater-
nalist isolation and accept a
new method of exercising his
authority."
• "We too,” he continued,
"must get rid of everything
that makes bishops the pri-
soners of their own hureau-
cratic. luridical. admivte-
