How Lumber Manufac turers Fix
Prices


Nation wide price fixing in the
lumber industry has never ceased. de
clares Joseph Il. Davies. Commissioner
of Corporations. in u report to Presi-
dent Wilson.
Prior TO 1906 price fixing was OPEN he
states. Then it changed to clandestine
method, first in the publication of
market reports, or "prevailing prices
and later in the employment of "basis
lists" and discount or concession"
sheets.
price combinations among lumber
manufacturers have usually been eff.
fected through associations, continued
MIR, Davies. There is 10 important
region of production in which they do
not have an association. Furthermore,
they have a national association, whose
chief purpose apparently has been to
increase profits by advancing prices.
Wholesale prices of lumber have been
higher because Of the associated activi-
ties of lumbermen,
The National Lumber Manufacture
ers Association has been active in its
efforts to shape legislation" The re-
port shows that lobby has been main
