Negotiations between Department OF

Ing down Lying costs. and represen-
tatives of interests engaged in manu-
facture and sale of mems clothing has
made little progress at Washington
toward development of a policy tend
ing to lower prices. The trade rep
resentatives were urged to have profits
but this suggestion apparently had de-
veloped heated argument. Each
group of representatives was willing
that the other elements OF the indus
try should eliminate big profits. depart
ment officials said.
There was much secrecy about the
session. Members of the conference
declined to discuss proposals debated
and department officials under in
structions from Attorney General Pal
mer to make public statements of plans
only when assurance of results could
be given would say only that they
had outlined the Governments views.
Suggestion was made to the confer
encc that the general session be brok-
en- up into committees, which perhaps
could arrive at some basis of action.
Definite agreement on that plan, how
ever. has not been reached.
