such efforts are, their social and (ico-

matter of grave doubt.
F.xample of this type of tampering
is found in legislation designed to
curb free 'competition in the retail
field, through the eliminatibn of es
tablished mass-mcrchadising methods,
•4hr' Hmiting of advertising and pro-
niotionfl'l (d’forts of various "litTrds,
law-e«forced price-fixing, etc. —
Thousands ..of bills to achieve such
entls have been introduced in state
legislatures and --eongress. _Soibe of
them have passed. And the upshot is
a definite consumer rebellion against
this sort of legislation.
'4'f*'we eliminate comp<*tition and at
tempt to negate the law of supply
Hn<l dimiand, the consumer must pay
the price. He is the one, and only one,
to pay the bill. Such a law becomes,

paid through increased cost of' the
