Bayer Company Reduces Prices A pew schedule of prices for Bayer Aspirin tablets?the lowest in the history of the Bayer company?went into effect yesterday in alf Camden drug stores . The Bayer company introduced Bayer A.-pirin in this country 35 year- ago. It has since become one of trie most widely used of all drug1 produets, and the price reduction will mean a saving to millions of cons u mors. Last year the Bayer company reduced the price of its lUU-tahlet package and. according to officials of the company, the di-trihution increased so definitely that it was decided to extend the lower .price to include the dozen and two. dozen packages and to again reduce the large family size. In announcing its new consumer price schedule, the Bayer company issued the following statement: "Bayer has always kept faith with its customers by giving them the finest, most uniform product that science can produce. Its decision to reduce prices is evidence of Bayer's desire to extend even further its service to its customers." The new consumer prices of Bayer A.-pirin are now effective in (>0,000 drug stores throughout the United States.
