Dr. Ellis Lambome and Dr. Roice E. Anderson, Associate Professors of Economics at Utah State University write that in making a survey retail prices of about fifty food items were otained weekly from 8 supermarkets in Salt Lake City and compared with wholesale prices from a major wholesaler. PROUD YEARS 1 25-ye- - In November, 1956, a major food chain in Salt Lake introduced trading stamps. Not long after trading stamps became widespread in other Salt Lake stores and throughout the state. By March, 1957, wholesale prices had increased of one percent but retail prices had by four-tentincreased five percent. The article states that, The retail price rise represented an increase in retail margin of at least sufficient to cover the cost of handling trading stamps. The State Farm Bureau office has talked with authorities close to retail grocery trade. They tell us that other factors contributed to the increase in retail prices. However, none that we talked with denied that trading stamps increase the margin between producer and consumer. Farm Bureau policy established in the 1957 Utah State Farm Bureau convention is in opposition to trading stamps. hs well-bein- 3UR&ERS DEER and ALE MONTICELLofuTAH 4!eat efa - - April 7, 1958, marks the 25th anniversary of the of beer in the United States. During this period, members of the United States Brewers Foundation, Inc., have proven their strong sense of social responsibility by sponsoring a strict program for their industry. This program seeks to impress upon all government agencies the necessity for rigid enforcement of laws and regulations pertaining to the sale of beer and ale, and to impress on licensees the necessity for strict observance of such laws. In common with the public interest, the nations brewers seek the goal of moderation on a national scale, for they recognize that the American people will not tolerate national excess. World experience has shown that where the consumption of beer has been recognized as socially acceptable, moderation has been the rule. Now the nations fifth largest taxpayer, the brewing industry in 1957 contributed in federal, state, and local taxes more than $1 billion. Wages paid to employees amounted to nearly $468 million, and the nations farmers received $240 million for their products. In all, approximately $38 billion has been pumped into the nations economy in the past 25 years by the malt beverage industry. themDuring 1958 the nations brewers are selves to upholding the high standards of the brewing industry program, and stressing that the through its light, bright beverages of moderation are the products of a progressive industry which contributes substantially to the g of virtually the entire adult economy, pleasure and nation. - twelve-year-ol- - III THE BREWING INDUSTRY TSX OF THE CLERK OF SAN FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 1958 . . . ipw jttao c .
