Manufacturers, wholesalers, and other distributors ol goods fell
line this week with the Newburyport plan and began reducing prices
along with retail merchants throughout the nation.
As a measure to coinbat inflation this 10 per cent price cut would
have normally had dubious results. 1 lad the small retailers been forced
to carry this to per cent drop in prices it would have lasted but a
short time and in the end the prices would hase increased back to and
more than the original 10 per cent.
Now, however, with the distributors and the manufacturers stepping
in to slash prices 10 per cent the small retail business man can pass that
10 per cent drop on to his customer, without taking a personal loss.

Majorities and Minorities
er who is being supported internally by a minority group is being aided
by a country which has as it’s basic premise of government, that the
majority is always right.
Today’s American imperialistic policy is the first step into a race
for w'Orld dominance. The issue is simple- Is the w’orld to become a
communist dominated world or it is to become allied with America and
the democratic principle.
America is presently aiding a minority in Greece, because by demo
cratic standards that minority comes closest to meeting our political
ideas. And if our politicaT ideas are not spread and fostered and nu rtu r
ed about the world, Communist ideas will be forced upon the people
of the w'orld.
Already sides have been picked for the struggle for World domin
ance. There are two main participants, America and Russia. Both are
engaged in extending their spheres of political activity.
The w'orld is too smaf) for nations to any longer attempt to extend
their economic and political borders to the next nation. Extension of
economic and political borders today means extension throughout the
world of those borders.
This is one W'orld. Each day it becomes smaller. There need be no
shooting war to determine what nation shall dominate this one world-
American diplomats and American businessmen can, by strong and
fast measures, secure this one world for America.
The securing of a democratic government in Greece is the first major
step in making this a democratically dominated world. If our elected
representatives and our career diplomats fail to extend the lines of
democracy about the world we w'ill lose the struggle and will find
world dominance a reality, with Russia doing the dominating, unde
mocratic.! lly.

There Should Be More
United States senator Cain from Washington has made the statement
that lie was not sent to Washington D. C. to help loot the treasury for
the benefit of his own state.
Too bad that more of the nation’s elected representatives don’t feel
the same way. If the good of the nation as a whole was considered each
time a legislative measure was passed, the entire nation would benefit.
