Prices Tumble


Nobody can be opposed to a fair deal to the grower. There is also need for reducing the gap between what the grower receives for his produce and the final price paid for it by the consumer. Any measure which helps to ensure a better price to the producer without any extra burden on the consumer is to be welcomed. Whether the State take-over of distribution can help achieve this objective is a controversial issue. The pub- lie sector has still to acquire a reputation for efficiency in much less difficult fields of activity.
