Price Cuts Debated by Merchants
(Continued from Page One) wholesalers that the inflation could be stopped a lot more readily than through any temporary plan for cutting retail prices. Charles B. Tutan, Dodge dealer, reported that his firm had cancelled orders on 500 radios and a large number of white sidewall rings when informed of price increases. Small Mark-up E. D. Rogers, appliance dealer, stated that with many manufacturers allowing only a 15 per cent mark-up, many dealers could not afford to slash prices 10 per cent. Reporting on a survey of Miracle Mile merchants, Mrs. Nikki O'Connor stated that many stores found the plan to be impractical because they carried so many "fair-trade" items with fixed prices. She said that many stores were running sales, offering reductions up to 50 per cent. Commercializing She also stated that many Miami stores were "commercializing" on the Newburyport plan, and were not really entering into the spirit of it. Mrs. Fay Schwartz of Howard's reported that she followed a policy of making storewide reductions of prices at the end of the fiscal year inventory in order to make room for new stocks.
