For us here at A&P, it has been a wonderful and thrilling ex- perience to get from those with whom we compete day after day such astounding evidence of friendship and respect. The things that have happened since the anti-trust lawyers from Washington brought suit to destroy A&P have amazed us. While we sincerely believed that we had earned the friendship of millions of consumers for whom we have provided better food at lower prices, and the friendship of millions of farm families for whom we have provided a better market for their produce, we were not prepared for the avalanche of offers of support. But most of all, we have to confess that we had underestimated , wants him oo’ esn’t seem ndent 3¢ they did dled over 1 nn are direc iE EMPLO t some folk years ago fT expenses mey a store sre manager et what 2 ODUCER their prost it big chai a me a] » far high + A cnt minated a: chain 1 bout 1n run, i!

Can anyone believe that these competitors would rush to our defense if, as the anti-trust lawyers allege, we had been trying to put them out of business? We and they have fought hard for business. There are nearly 350,000 individual grocers competing with us They have a larger share of the nation’s grocery business today than they had ten years ago or twenty years ago. Many of them do as good a job as we do, and they make it plenty tough for us. Now, day after day, these same competitors are letting us know that they are in our corner.
