Harder ment against the cooperatives and destroying their goodwill in order to effect a monopoly for the non-cooperative dairy firms. • * * Recently, the trucking Indus try won a ease of this sort against the railroads and their public relations counsel for tac tics that allegedly were designed to destroy the trucking industry. * • * This growth of public relations firms in this direction is becom ing a hazard to the welfare of the nation. Whereas public relations were onc4 used solely in a posi tive manner to build up goodwill for their clients, now a great deal is destructive strategy aimed through the use of false front “citizens" groups, and oth er strategems. to destroy, * * *. On several occasions, voting through the National Federation of Independent Business, the na tion's independent businessmen have voted on this question of cooperatives. The sentiment Is strong to pat cooperative* on the same tax basis as private enter prise for equality. • • • But in so voting, the nati >n’s m ndent bu arc not ?Wl*r*!tMl «f lakMKA f'Bl going on record as wishing to outlaw cooperatives, no more than they go on record in favor of outlawing Big Business. The only po.nt at issue is putting all enterprise on the same touting, under the same rules. * • • rnfortunately, in the dairy business in Ihe nation today, there exists sll the ailments of n sick Industry brought on by monopolism. Very few indepen dent dairy distributors any long er exist, with the bulk of the dairy product distribution fall ing into the clutches of two or three huge corporations who even own, or have an interest in, big food chains, merely to blank nut competition from dis tribution in these stores. * • * Obviously, the dairy producers need protection from the preda tors in the dairy distribution bus iness. It is difficult to tell what is the best form of operation in a free market, when a free market does not exist. * * • Destruction of dairy coopera tives is not the answer. For In addition, even with their tax favoritism, cooperatives have not been able to stop the march of monopoly in milk. • * * The problem is grave. On one side is the welfare of the nation’s infants. On another side, is the problem of the welfare of the independent dairy farmer. In the middle, and threatening the wel fare of both are the huge dairy combines. And while infants can not organize, the independent milk producers can. * * * l But undoubtedly, the only prac tical solution to entire problem would be for the anti trust laws to be so rigidly enforced in the dairy Industry that a free and open market would exist. As it stand* now. milk distribution Is n national disgrace. t* • former mudent at Whitmire and Clinton His brother, Thomas Prather and sister. Thelma El- lede. are resident* at this city.

SALES • SERVICE • SlITUKS HOWARDS PHARMACY I’hoa* 101 Every day about 439,500 South Carolina women make it a point to shop where they get trading stamps. This large group of smart, thrifty South Carolina shoppers with their common interest in trading stamps, can be thought of as a huge “woman’s club’’ with membership throughout the state. Of course this “club wom an’’ gets wonderful things for her home and family through such favorites as S&H Green Stamps. Through her thrift and diligence she provides “extras” for her family. And although she nu) seldom think about it, her active saving is enormously good for business Last year, for example, trad ing stamp companies pur chased $6,894,000 worth of products from South Carolina manufacturers. Making these things provided jobs for 666 South Carolina people. S&H Redemption Stores, paying local rent and taxes, employ many more. In the light of these facts it would seem that not only South Carolina women, but every body in the state can belhank- ful that the trading stamp is a part of our way of life. in our state.
