The Co operative Store and Eastern Washington Credit Debate
An opinion column from The West Coast Trade criticizes cooperative stores in Eastern Washington as risky and costly. It argues that recurring settlements and long unpaid credits harm merchants, noting higher failure rates versus directly managed stores and warning farmers about paying in advance for supplies. The piece also comments on Oregon legislative coverage by Salem Journal and Pendleton Tribune, lampooning editor Hofer and Pendleton’s editor as seeking notoriety.
