IMGE 6. WEDNESDAY, OC'rOBER 30, 1985, WIIITBY Brnmkl in Bylines ::: By BETTY-JEAN BLYTH SCali 655-3679 wlth Items for this columfl in- rny innocence, 1 alwa ys assumeu that 1 would have to pay more for a quart of milk than 1 would for a pint, but now I'm not so sure. Otherwise why dues it cost more to have the phone company leave your name out of the phone book than iL does to print it? Why does it cost me more for a can of sugerless peaches, a bag of unbleached flour or a pound of un- salted butter? With everyone crying about cutting FEIE PRESS clown on pollution, why does iL cost more for unleaded gas and why does the government now add more tex to it? Perhaps there's a logical explanetion of which I'm ignorant. The only one I've been able to come up with is that somewhere there is an army of people who go around erasing the names from phone books and siphoning off the lead in the gas. But if that's the case, what with the growing number of products that are "less" this and "un" thet it seems to me thet we should be able to take care of one of our other chronic problems -- unemployrnent. 0f course we're alreedy paying people not to work so... Note: Any financial experts who would like to set me straight on this, please be prepared to corne up with an answer in one syllable words only, you see, I still count on my fingers.
