Supermarket Spokesman Sees No Chance Boycotts Lower Prices
Washington AP A spokesman for the nation's supermarkets says boycotts by housewives will not cut food prices. Clarence G Adamy president of the National Association of Food Chains says demands for 10 to 15 percent reductions are unrealistic and that chains earn about 1.3 percent profit. Rep Benjamin Rosenthal counters that boycotts have had effects and inflation drives prices up. Adamy argues only govt action can curb inflation and that price cuts would force stores out of business. He notes promotion and advertising costs would still be passed to consumers and that cutting services is the only way to lower prices.
