Curbing Free Choice * Mass production and mass distribution are the foundation of the widely distributed abundance that we all enjoy Both are pro ducts of our tree market, free choice econo mic system —a system that permits the con sumer to walk into any store of his choice and select items from the shelves at his own discretion. The free market means exactly what it says No one is looking over your shoulder when you make a purchase. On the contraiy. merchants are anxious to please consumers. That is how they stay in busi ness. But something new is entering the dis tribution system m the guise of the “boy cott " Through the medium of the boycott, eveiy effort is being made to force the na tion's merchants to discontinue carrying a certain item on their shelves, thus depriving consumers of the basic right of free choice. In this instance, the boycott is aimed at table grapes If the boy cotters have their way, there will be no grapes on store sheh es this summer—or possibly any other summer it the conditions of the boy cotters are not met The controverts is over the Farm News This Week Martin And Stauffer Win Pennsv Ivania FFA Offices Page 1 Han estuig Machine Idea Given By A Local Tomato Farmer Page 1 Eggmen Should Know Their Customers Page 13 LANCASTER FARMING I ancastei County’s Own Faim Weekly P 0 P.o\ 266 - Lititz, Pd 17543 Olfue 22 E Main St Lititz, Pa 17543 Phone Lancastei 394 3047 oi Lititz 626 2191 E\eu>U R Newswangei, Editor Robei t G Campbell, Advei Using Dnector bubsci iption puce $2 pei yeai in Lancaster County SSelsewheie Established Novembei 4, 1955 Published eveiy Satin day by Lancaster Fat ming, Lititz, Pa Second Class Postage paid at Lititz Pa 17543 Men- Dei of Kewspapei Fai m Ediloi s Assn question of unionizing agricultural workers in California, -And supermarkets are under pressure to take sides in the dispute. If they are forced to remove grapes from their shelves, they are forced into the role of judge and jury in the dispute. If this process works with grapes, no one knows what may be next—there are 8.000 items in a modern supermarket. To morrow it may be bread, milk, meat or some other necessity. The principle im olv ed in this dispute is simple. It is the princi ple of free choice upon which mass produc tion and mass distribution rest.
