Farmers Can Close Gap
A wide communications gap
exists between food proudcers
and urban consumers, and it is
largely up to the farmers to close
it.
So says Joseph P. Sullivan,
president of Estech, Inc., who
adds that both sectors are being
hurt by the almost complete lack
of communication. Estech, with
major interests in chemicals, is a
subholding company of Esmark,
Inc., Chicago. Esmark has ad
ditional major interests in food,
energy and varied financial
services.
“While the situation is cer
tainly not the farmers’ fault, it is
high time they quit complaining
that their problems are not un
derstood by urbanites - and time
they began to communicate, to
help get their story across. Those
of us in business serving
agriculture must also help.

Consumers’ Corner
Multipurpose Furniture -
The smaller, more compact
homes of today are calling for
less furniture and for furniture
that has multiple uses.
Among the multipurpose pieces
that are gainmg in popularity are
the small chests in place of night
tables, low chests in place of
lamp tables, sleeping units with
storage underneath, and a hutch
on top of a buffet, instead of a
separate china cabinet.
Chests, cabinets and cases with
squared-off lines can be grouped
side by side for more storage in
less space or placed separately as
needs change.
For flexible storage in relative
ly small spaces, modular wall sys
tems should be considered. These
units include wall-hung, pole- sus
pended, free standing or stacked
systems of chests, cabinets, record
and file cabinets, desk and book
shelf units. The units, all of the
same width and depth, can be
changed to be used in many com
binations to meet various needs
or to be easily moved to a new
home. Wall systems offer expand
ability. One can start with a small
section and add to it as finances
permit.

understand the problems of, say,
the auto industry or the airlines,
it is up to those industries to tell
their story. The same should be
true for the producers of food,”
Sullivan observes.
He notes that the consumer
needs to learn the facts about the
food situation as badly as the
farmer needs to explain them,
because both groups have been
hurt.
“The uncertainty Of the market
caused a great number of
pregnant sows and cows to be
slaughtered. Such unfortunate
actions as this plus consumer
demands for government action
are rapidly taking us toward
serious food shortages and
definitive possibilities of even
higher food prices,” Sullivan
declares.
It is important to encourage
increased farm productivity, he
says, to meet growing domestic
food demands as well as helping
to stablize the dollar and offset
balance of trade deficits.
“For government to truly
assist in this, we must have an
informed, understanding con
sumer,” Sullivan concludes,
“and this will require a concerted
cooperative effort by all
segments of the food-producing
industry.
