ol I. Indicative of how the
American people will let them
selves be led into a situation
which is undermining competi
tive business. We say we believe
In free enterprise, but we don't
have nerve enough to do any-thir-
when a combine of busi
ness Interests forces an artificial
raise in prices."
CilM Over Supply
Mrs. Bosworth said she hadn't
forgotten pictures taken In 3ra
ill and other coffee-producing
countries, showing great quan
tities of coffee being burned be
cause over-production had glut
ted the market and because cuf
fee dealers were afraid prices
would fall too low, and neither
has she forgotten the statements
of some, within the industry,
who protested the increase in
prices and maintained there is
no coffee thortage.
Mrs. Bosworth. when her fa
vorite grocer refused to do any
thing about the price of coffee,
started to buy her daily gro
ceries at various other markets,
finding In the process that she
saved quite a bit of money by
"shopping around," even though
she failed to interest any grocers
in her campaign.
Many Cut U
She has been discussing the
matter with her friends and fel
low club members and while she
found that few of them had
completely ceased to buy coffee,
she did find a number who were
serving coffee less frequently,
thereby cutting down their con
sumption, and others who had
ceased to make coffee in the pat
ent gadgets, which they said took
more coffee, and had returned
to the old-fashioned boil method
which produces more brew for
the same amount of ground
coffee.
"We're actually helping to de
stroy our capitalistic system of
free enterprise by not being self
disciplined enough to exert pres
sure in cases like this," Mrs. Bos
worth believes. "I'm interested in
the 'long haul1 reaction we're
going to get if the consumers
submit to such tactics."
