Asked the price, the gentlemanly salesman will reflect for a moment
in order to remember correctly and then answer: "The price of this piece,
sir, is $16, and the price of the typewriter table is $6. Where would you
like to have them delivered, sir?" You will, of course, be impressed with
the efficiency of Babcock & Roblin and the gentlemanly American way they
do business. But you will recall that you were offered the same furniture
at Levitsky's for $16—both pieces. You may hint that you have been

tleman hasn't made an error in his quotation. 11e will explain In his fault-
less English, without an accent, that he is sure the price is quite right.
That, in fact, it's the rock bottom price—that is, the rock bottom price in
all legitimate houses. "If anybody quoted you a lower price it must have
been some illegitimate house—perhaps one of those bike stores down the
street." He will turn up his nose, a genuine Nordic retrousee nose, you
will observe, and add, "That isn't our way of doing business. This is a one-
price house. Our merchandise is right and our prices are right. Of course,
if you'd rather get stung—" but naturally he will be too indignant to go
any further.
You will agree with him, of course, since he represents the point of
view of all 100 per cent Nordic Ankericans. As an anti-Semite you will
acknowledge the superior efficiency of legitimate business and the spirit
of service which animates it. But, as a sensible buyer of limited means
you will tell the gentlemanly salesman that you will call him up and let
him know where to deliver the furniture. Then you will walk around the
block and, making sure that you are not observed from across the street,
you will return to Joseph Levitsky's and purchase the book case and the
typewriter table for $16. You will pay no attention to Mr. Levitsky when
he exclaims: "You see, I told you it's a bargain. They always come back
' to Joe's place." ii That only proves that the Jews are a race of noisy brag-
. garts and you as an anti-Semite know you must be on your guard against
business.
