I = EDITORIA America rejected the Long - ago, cartel system of Europe, and set a- bout vigilantly te stop the growth of business monopoly wherever it threatened. It is apparent that the monopoly power of labor unions is no less a danger to our national security. oo 0 Somewhere there must be a lim- it fixed to both taxes and to foreign cannot in- Federal aid expenditures. We definitely continue raising taxes and giving away money at a | constantly increasing rate. For the sake of everyone in this nation. Congress select limitations and pass that will prevent reckless administrations ceeding those limitations. ® 0 must laws from ex- The president of one of Americo’s largest oil companies, in his ad- dress to the graduating class of fa- | meus Texas A. & M. College, cer- tainly gave his listeners some good sound advice. His subject was, ‘‘What Is Suc- cess?” He told the young men, many of whom are about to enter the armed forces, “If you concen- trate on making money only and reject the opportunity to be of val- | ue to your family and to your fel- low man, you will lead a narrow, selfish and lonely life. You wiil have little happiness, matter how much money you may possess.” Then he said that the nation greatly needs young men who are basically and uncompromisingly honest at a time when we are con- stantly faced with the nauseating spectacle of corruption and crook- edness eating away the dignity and moral fiber of our government. oo 0 OUR SWAN SONG After being engaged in the print- ing and publishing business for over 31 years, plus 7 years in the employ of others, the writer feels as though its about time to throw in the sponge. He started to learn his trade right here in Mount Joy at the Star and News, a weekly pa- per published in a I-story frame no Joy Hall. That was on April 8, 1891. His salary was $1.00 per week of six 10-hour days for the first three months. He received a wage in- crease of 25 cents per week each | three months. That scale continued | for three years. This I must admit, was quite a battle but the real battle only start- | ed when I decided to embark the | third weekly newspaper in Mount | Joy, a town of less than 2.500 pop- ulation. { From the first issue until today, | my motto was to publish all the news. In ofder to comply I fre- quently “tread on some people's toes”, but never intentionally. i My plant was improved from | lime to time as can be seen by the iollowing: | The Bulletin was the first week- ly thruout this section to install a Linotype. It was also the first weekly to in- stall a web press, It was the first weekly to install a Lundlow, for casting display type. Today the plant comprises all the | most modern ‘in machinery and we | can, and have done, any kind of | printing produced by letter press.

SCHROLL ee 0 AND THE CONSUMER obviously PROFIT A great many hold to the misconception that bus iness’ profits are a cause of high prices. Yet the truth is that over the last decade, net profits have | accounted for only about 5 cents of people every dollar of sales. In 1951, the | average was but 4 cents, Moreover in some very important | types of business, profits are even | smaller than this. Retailing is one of them. It is an ironical fact that the retailer has been the target of | resentment, On | occasion, so-called consumer strikes | complete with picket and | flaunting banners, have di- rected against the hapless retailer. much consumer lines been Yet store profits for the first nine | months of 1951 amounted to than 2 cents out of the sales dollar. | less Food chains have frequently re- ported profits of only a trifle more | than a cent on the sales dollar. This points up the fact that prof- its definitely have not been a cause truth retailing, busi- have of inflation. In including many | nesses, inflation been victims of just ‘as | have the consumers. Prices have up. | pre-war able gone comparison with inescap- | materials, | taxes and so on have often gone up proportionately more. And the dol- [lar the retailer does earn as profit ves, by such as labor, levels—hbut expenses | buys him much less than it used to | —just like everyone else's dollars. The profit keeps | country going. It makes for abun- motive this j dance and high living standards. It | [ costs us mighty little, when meas- | { ured by the vast benefits it creates. ———— Water Facilities (From page 1) | | available and if the labor situation i does not change radically | William B.
