PAGE SIX THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERAÄISTON. OREGON. C O O P E R A T IO N is simply a number of people working to the same end. Instead of being satisfied to accept whatever quality, whatever prices and whatever service private business wishes to impose on them, they reason that it is better to be in business for themselves. They own the business that furnishes them with goods and services, they con trol the policies and share the profits. By democratic processes hey actually run their own business. The immediate savings are by no means the only benefits ac cruing from this system. In every community where cooperative enterprise exists, it operates as an effective control of monopoly, and as a safeguard against exploitation. Thus the whole commu nity benefits because a group of its citizens has the courage and the initiative to strive to better their condition collectively by coopera tive enterprise.
