Mem In all the talk about lower, prices, don't forget this Day in and day out, no retailer does a better job of keeping prices down than your food merchant. No food merchant does a better job than We would like you to understand two important things about price situation: Our net profit during the past five years has averaged only about 1 cent on each dollar of sales. If we were to operate our business without any profit at all, this 1 cent would amount to a saving of less than 4 cents a day on the entire food bill of the average American family. We sincerely believe that has the lowest cost of distribution of any retail business in the world. When you spend $1.00 in an store, you get 86 cents worth of food and only about 14 cents goes to meet all expenses wages, taxes, rent, light, heat and the hundreds of other expenses incidental to the stocking and operating of a modern food store including our very small profit.

Obviously there is little "fat" in such a price structure. Our operating costs and profits are already cut close to the bone. Merchants generally have reduced prices on many items on which they were overstocked. In recent weeks we have reduced prices on hundreds of such items. That is common merchandising practice and has no relation to a general or permanent price reduction.

While many food prices have already been lowered we must recognize that no substantial general reduction in retail food prices is possible until the cost of food to the retailer is reduced. As any housewife knows, business has been built on the policy of selling quality food at the lowest practical price every day. We pledge to our customers strict adherence to that policy. We will continue to lower our prices as fast as reductions in costs to us and economies in our operations permit. Friday evening at 8 o'clock, with Mrs.
