PRICE CIIIIIR(ILS
Dear Dave: Your November editorial, ttYou Can't Fool Mother Nature," was just great, as was your related "Price, Profit Problems" story on page 17. Both pieces will certainly help in setting the record straight and pointing up facts often overlooked in press reports or Price Commission press briefings.
Best regards.
Sincerely,
Hugh J. Mullins, Dir.
