That is a highly important fact which is often overlooked, , especially by those who urge a "planned economy" which is a pleasant sounding term for an economy run by political fiat, under the direction of political administrators who I often have had no practical experience in the interprises they and who regulate, may be totally unacquainted with the involved in operating a business. problems Under the free, competitive system, business can survive 'only if it pleases the consumer. The manufacturer produces not what he may want, but what his customers want.,The store keeper stocks the goods which, in his estimation, will find an eager market The whole complex system of production and distribution is geared to the desires, needs and whims of the consuming public. Moreover, this system offers the consumer greater protection than any other ever devised. It guarantees that, with few exceptions, he will get the best quality possible for the money the man or woman who is bilked into buying a shoddy, misrepresented articles will avoid it like the plague on the next shopping trip. And it guarantees also that prices will be as low as the conditions of the time permit- To most people, low price is a major inducement. Every manufacturer and every retailer, in the interest of survival, must try to keep his prices lower than those of competitors. Yes in a competitive economy the consumer is sovereign. n .
