Mail Order Houses Harm Small Town Stores
The American Fair Trade League reports mail order houses control about 20 percent of total U S country store business, with annual commerce near 2.5 billion dollars. Small merchants lose ground as catalog sellers price below cost and use bold ads, while big stores seek devious discounts to lure city shoppers. The group urges Congress to consider uniform retail pricing to curb monopolistic practices and defend independent merchants.
