600fc5RATICK’S TRUE AIM
Cont. from uage’ 14
Was tho co-op producing these nostrums
"for use?" In the lost anFlysis coopera
tives, liko profit business, must furnish
the kind of goods and, services that their
patrons want and demand, at the same time
educating patrons to higher standards. In
a socialist economy, we would all take the
kind of medicine that the chi^f of,state
decreed we should have—and like it.
When cooperatives depend for their very
life on the maintenance of freedom of
enterprise., it is somewhat depressing to
see cooperative spokosm en ignoring free
dom and even beating tho drum for govern
mental measure which, to an over increas
ing' extent, nut the hobbles on freedom and
lbad us toward tho very kind of tyranny
! that we have just fought a bloody war to
| put down.
