There wee one mistake, however, namely: It read, "the price has be*n surruptltioualy re duced below the cost of production by manufacturers." It should read, haa been surreptitiously reduced below the ooat of production by manipulator*. We believe the manufacturers would prefer a stable price of 10 cents per pound and would not enter Into a combine to bankrupt the farmer*. Again thanking you.
