Safeway Chief Denies High Grocery Profits Driving Prices

Washington AP report quotes Safeway Stores president W S Mitchell asserting profits do not drive food prices, noting profits amount to less than a penny per person daily in 1973 and possibly a penny or a quarter this year. Mitchell argues prices follow competitors, not costs, amid Proxmire and Humphrey criticisms of price uniformity and market share.

Butz Criticizes Grain Farmer Cycle and Farm Leisure

Secretary Earl L. Butz warns that many grain farmers earn six months of income in a year by growing only corn and soybeans, enabling vacations at upscale resorts. He cites farmers abandoning live stock to enjoy leisure time, selling cattle to feed lots rather than raising them on the farm, during a Des Moines Register interview. A burglary report from Long Beach notes Benny Tillman saying burglars took TVs and stereo gear worth 3329 dollars from his home.
