Behind The Scenes In
American Business
(Continued From Page One)
lie largely has heard only th ver
sion of business' opponents. There
fore, announcement in New York by
the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea
Company that it is cooperating with
consumer or other public study
groups caused quite a ripple in in
dustrial waters as marking a new
era in corporate public relations.
The A & P, in announcing a $2,000
contribution to an Emergency Con
sumers Tax Council representing
women in some 100 New Jersey com
munities, told the public frankly that
it is cooperating with "this and simi
lar organizations dedicated to the
protection of the consumer from
further rise in the cost of living as
a result of punitive or confiscatory
taxes levied on independent mer
chants, chain stores, producers or
distributors of any. kind . . . We feel
the great need is to help provide
ways and means of bringing out the
facts. The people will form their
own opinions. To this end, we are
planning to augment cooperation with
consumer groups with a program of
paid advertising in the near future."
Papers from coast to cyast editor
ially are praising the m$ve. Typical
is an 'editorial in Newsdom, a maga
zine ffor publishers,, which said in
part: "Business has every right to
present its side of the case to the
public, just as has the politician. The
A & P . . . has a definite interest in
helping to expose punitive or confis
catory taxes levied on merchants,
whether they 'be independent or
chaiife, and in assisting in informing
the public that the taxes must be
passed on to the consumer. It does
not contceal its motives and that in
itself is worthy of praise. Let busi
ness tear a page from the book of the
A & P and speak out."

SEES LOW PRICES
Wheat prices for the 1939-40 mar
keting year will remain low relative
to prices in recent years unless there
is a material reduction in acreage
next year or a considerable improve
ment in world economic conditions
and in the world price level, predicts
the U. S. Bureau of Agricultural
Economics.
