UP TO THE GOVERNMENT

Former Governor Fort, who pre-
sented the resolution from the special
committee, said it put the legality of
right to fix prices up to the govern
ment and not on the operators. It
has been feared that the operators
could not legally fix prices even at
the instance of the government.
Tentative prices, effective July 1st,
will be announced at once. These are
expected to be in effect until perma-
nent prices can be arranged as a re-
suit of an investigation into the cost
of production.
