But now the Sundland Store is joining with Hotpoint—builder of .Amer ica's finest electric appliances—in doing something about it . . . namely, reducing prices on electric ranges, refrigerators, dis- pc sal Is and water heaters. Price reductions at a time like this when appliances like these are so scarce is news in itself. But all the more note worthy is the fact that these price reductions—which run as h'gh as $20 on some models—are made in the face of the b'ggest demand for Hotpoint products in the company's history. Certainly, this is proof that this move is made purely in the public's interest. We consider it an outstanding example of the kind of business statesmanship that has made America the country that it is today and the kind that will continue to lead the way to future greatness. The Sundlnnd Store heartily subscribes to this courageous move of Hotpoint*! . . . and is glad to be the first in Vernonia and Mist in this crusade to cut the cost of living.
