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.

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.

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.
We have published numerous pub-
lications, school and song books,
color work, etc, i

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 |
