Local members OF the Salt Lake Pro-
duce Exchange are expressing them
selves more or less feelingly on the adj
Vertised claims OF a certain firm that
the exchange Is trust combination.
They deny this with emphasis and say
that all OF the transactions OF the ex-
change are conducted In open board
and recorded just the same as I'm the
exchanges In other cities, and that
while standard prices ARE set by gem
eral agreement IN the exchange, menu
bers are at liberty 10 sell for less where
the character of the goods viii admit
of Il. All disputes among members are
settled by arbitration, so that litiga-
ton for inconsequential or frivolous
reasons Is avoided.
