Walk down any “Main Street” in Lancaster County, state agencies to limit labor
stopping people at random and ask—“ What do you Ihink organization activities and re

THEN ask him if he or
his business receives a sub
sidy and the answer will
doubtless be “NO'!
THEN —101 l nicely

which has not received a sub

projects, public or coopcra l

federal loans, or ‘ fast tax
write-off plans' which work
