WOMEN'S LEAGUE
Rising prices and higher cost of
living are making front page head
lines these days. Food prices par
ticularly are the center of atten
tion although steel got its share.
Even more recently automobiles
were rated for sharp price boosts
on 1967 models. You name it and
chances are it carries a higher
price tag.
But why all the fuss? Prices have
been moving up on must commodi
ties since 1946 when wartime price
controls were abolished. Even so,
there have been periods of price
recession, particularly in farm
products. Durables and clothing go
up in price and we pungle up more
money without much objection.
But we all object when we have
to pay more for food items, politi
cians notwithstanding. Why? Tra
ditionally, we are accustomed to
an abundance of food at low pric
es. Emphasis is on increased food
prices because the overall cost of
living has literally leaped in re
cent months, partly because of in
flationary pressures and in part
due to scarcer supplies.
To get the picture in clearer per
spective, let us consider some of
the factors in our market struc
ture that influence prices. Basic
ally, the dominant forces are the
old factors of supply and demand.
While we do not have perfect com
petition in the market place, these
two forces do function. They, along
with government actions, influence
the attitudes of traders. Their judg
ments and values, right or wrong,
are major determinants of the
price we pay at retail.
Government’s role in the market
place has varied over the years.
Currently market prices are in
fluenced indirectly by government
spending of more money than
comes into the treasury. Meantime,
production of material and use of
manpower for war is limiting pro
duction of some consumer goods
and services. With personal spend
able income at new record levels,
there are more dollars competing
for the smaller supply of available
goods. The upshot of all this is in-
faltion and higher prices.
Producers and handlers of com
modities determine more and more
the level of return they must real
ize in the market for the goods
they produce or handle in order
to stay in business and enjoy a
standard of living they judge rea
sonable and desirable for themsel
ves and their families. This is as
it should be.
This is equally true for labor em
ployed by all segments of our in
dustries. Wholesalers and retailers
have strived for per-determined
profit margins over the years.
Thus there exists a close knit inter
relationship of mutually depend
ent forces with not so diverse in
terests—the good life.
Farmers traditionally have not
been in a position to do more than
bargain individually with buyers
and more often than not they
have had to accept the price offer
ed irrespective of the return on in
vestment and to management. This
is still largely true because of the
perishable nature of most agricul
tural commodities. But this has
changed for some commodities in
recent years and greater change
can occur if marketing becomes
a function of one-desk bargaining
and selling.
The plain fact is farmers, as well
as other businessmen, must make
a reasonable profit to stay in busi
ness. Profit is the very soul of our
economic system. Without it, there
would be no incentive to produce
and we would not have the abund
ance of goods and services we en
joy. Producers of food, the main
stay of human life, are entitled to
a fair return as any business man
is. Realization of this happy cir
cumstance is sure to be slow, but
it must be achieved. Concepts
about getting cheap food will have
to change. The alternatives are
either scarcity and much higher
prices as more fanners quit the
farm, or more government in food
production, processing and distri
bution and a consequent heavier
tax load for everyone. What is your
choice?
Concepts about the farm er’s
“ share’* of the consumer’s dollar
also need to change. As expressed
now, it is meaningless. For exam
ple. the 41 cents calculated as the
farm er’s “share" does not tell a
thing about profit or return to man
agement. Most of the 41 cents is
used to cover cost of production
and marketing.
