FOOD PRICES
A nd PROFITS
À
A STATEMENT Of
SAFEWAY POLICY
The forces of market disturbance, fear and speculation are at
work. Prices for some basic commodities have already gone up. Increases
in Safeway’s retail prices on these items reflect the rise in wholesale
cost, over which Safeway has no control.
It is a fundamental Safeway policy to earn only a small profit on
each sale. Safeway pledges that during the period of war emergency it
will not) change this policy; and that in the future, as heretofore, it will
make every effort through improved methods to reduce distribution
cost—the difference between what the farmer gets and the consumer
pays. You will always be able to buy from Safeway at the lowest
prices available anywhere.
Consumers may assist materially in preventing unwarranted price
increases by continuing their purchases on a normal scale. There are
adequate supplies of food stuffs for every American. Hysterical buying
which strips retail and wholesale stocks creates artificial scarcity, which
pushes prices to abnormal levels.
Machinery exists within the government to control production,
storage and release of commodities, imports, exports, quotas and prices
—if it should become necessary to employ these meiihods to protect
the economic welfare of the country.
Young eyes especially need good light for easy
seeing. That’s one reason why it is so important
to use the right size light bulbs in your lamps
and fixtures. Yet surveys show that 2 out of 3
bulbs used are the wrong size for safe seeing.
