INDINUON = N'EVERTHiING! OPPORTUNITY OF U. S. MERCHANTS SHOWN! Chain Shetenttinne Problems That Carn petitars| Do Not Meet, Babson Says in Discussion of Business Trend of Future. BABSON. PARK, Mass., Oct. 10 —About two years ago this paper published an interview with Roger W. Babson in which he advised mer- chants, to get busy and meet. chain store competition. He also'then ad- vised investors to purchase chain store stocks. Subsequent events have shown the wisdom of that) ad> vice. Toduy Mr, Babson takes upian- other side of the problem which— in view of his previous forecasts—is worthy of serious consideration. Mr. Babson’s offictal statement is as follows: s Chain Stores Now: Worrying. “About two years ago, ‘in sorhe comments on the ehain store ‘situa tion, I’ made the point that: chain stores. would “huye a tremendous growth in 1924 ahd 1925, and then their troubles would’ begin the same ag the. troubles’ of Independent stores, I called the attéritién of: read- ers to the fact that the advantuges of-the chain stores consisted primar: ily |in their ability to get excéllent management. and to purchase at very low prices. I’ made it clear that there is no reason: why” indépendent inérehants, who are on the job, could not have equally a good manage: nent, and said that the chain store woiild be up against other troubles which would, in a way,’ offset its gteat purchasing power. ‘Tn connec: tion with these other troubles T men- tioned the fact whyt by the end of 1926 chain stores ‘would be cutti one ‘another's throats ant also wou subject to labor trouble: inevitable in‘ lar with ubsentee nian: Je, independent ally operate Jmost entir such troubles, Already bles are beginning to appear medns that the {ndependent tm chant mhy be again coming jrito his own, while the chain stores may be the, ‘ones who! will do the worrylug during the t few yeurd. | Good Service Wins Over Low ‘4 Priv “As stated above. n} store has the adydntage af buying “pods Very cheaply ing to, ity gieat pur; chasing power; bur there ts. no rea son why d chain store should hi > Management than the tnde- elit ‘merchant ff the indepéndent meércHant would attend to his busl- ness and, use his head instead merely his arms and legs. It ia sald that ‘American conrumers spend about $40,000,000 daily on food and that price is a secondary considera- tlon {n the spending of this money. The great majority of American consumers are more interested {n service than in price, This {s | the reason that some chain stores. are now malting deliveries and, in many stances, run what is equivalent to charge accounts. “Chain stores havé their functions: in, the economic.world and in tte ld 5) be or srutloris w persd thei we ho whieh o great retail distribution. system. ef [4 American life. ‘They are here to stay but,they are not going to do. all the business, any more than are the de- partment stores and mail order hauses.

Also, the. fu- ture will show the jobber to be in existence ove hundred yeuts trom today just as truly as he Ja today.

Preventing Price Cutting. | “Experiments have recently t place in Minneapolis and San Fran- elsco in connection with the grocery trade. hese experiments hi shown that the e chant has a practical method .of ing the price cutting situation. The.+Minheapolis Grocers’ associa- tion met price cutting by agreeing | that when a price cutting ‘ad’ ap- | peared they would all quote the same price as the price cutter with- out ang emphasis or comment as| though that were the regular price for the article. You can see the ef- ot. The price-cutting ‘ad’ fell flat for the reason that every customer attracted by any special offer in the ‘ad’ found that it was not sp cial at all. and soon paid no atten- tion to the ‘ads.’ “In San Francisco they have a very strong Grovers’ association. Is’ reported that if price cutting is started, a grocer who is a member of the association and w! suitably located in the same neigh borhood' as that of the pri cutter, is selected to carry vigorous war into the enemy's camp, That grocer visited and instructed.
