The commission announced last night
that il had recommended the reopen
ing Of antitrust proceedings against
the International Harvester Company
and the Institution OF court pro-
ceedings against employment manu-
facturers and dealers, who, the com
mission say, have Illegally increased

1914, and 1918, prices of farm i'm.
plements advanced Is per. cent. Ad-
vances in the costs ~lu expenses Of
manufacturers and dealers did not
warrant the commission said, an in
crease of this amount.
Plan Price Boosts.
Discussing methods which the com
mission charges officers and mem
bers OF imple ment manufacturers as
sociation, used to bring about and
maintain high price levels. the report
states that price comparison meetings
were held, at which advances IN
prices recently made or intended 10 be
made, were discussed"
Meetings also were held, It is charg-
I'd. at which inflated costs were com
pared with the tacit understanding
that prices would be advanced the
same percentage shown by the inflat-
ed costs" and at which agreements
were made respecting uniform terms"
and the Standardization of implements
and equipment.
Exchange Price Lists.
The commissions report further
states that members of manufacturers

cX@"ange of price lists by mail SO
that members could check up on each

BY these methods, the commission
asserts, beginning with meetings held

through 1918. the manufacturers often
arrived at Uniform percentages OF in

and then another line Of implements 3"
That the Officers and members OF
