People who are not co-operators are reading and learning about the consumer ques tion more and more.

Also on March 1, Senator Phil Nelson of Wisconsiu introduced a bill in the legislature which provid ed that co-operative marketing should be taught in all high schools and common schools.

England has the CWS (Co-operative Wholesale Society) which is the largest busi ness organization in England and does an annual business of over half a billion dollars.
