The simple purpose of the proposed amendment is to rectify this condition and to permit all retailers. whether large or small. to compete on an equal price footing. Above all. let us search our consciences and weigh our collective sincerity in our protestations of concern for the preservation of that historic benchmark of our Nationfreedom of opportunity. Our Nation has. traditionally. merited the accolade of serving as the primary catalyst which has enabled those of the lower economic strata. including refugees from religious persecution and escapees from political apprehension. to discover the broad dimensions of Americas freedom of opportunity for one and all to embark upon modest business careersand. thus. emerge successfully or "go bust." There are many signs indicative of the fact that this unique distinction is fast on the wane. When an aspiring individual is deprived of the opportunity to exercise his initiative to embark upon a business venture. he then. advertently or inadvertently. becomes a malcontent. and as such is easy prey for the propaganda of agitators: as a consequence. democracy suffers. When a number of wellintentioned individuals become the prey of malcontents. the fundamental institutions of democracy are placed in jeopardy.
