Prouty Faces Grocers On Unit Pricing Plan

U S Senator Winston L. Prouty of Vermont may be pressed by Vermont Retail Grocers' Association members at their May 17 meeting at the Tavern Motor Inn about unit or dual pricing in food stores. The bill, backed by Sen Gaylord Nelson, would require price per unit alongside package price, drawing opposition from independent retailers worried about costs and small business hardship. Prouty may also discuss his compromise plan for a rail passenger service and a satellite based international communications system financed by stock sales. The day includes the Grocers' Credit Union annual meeting and the grocer association business session with officer reports and director elections.
