other cases the just claims OF for.

PRICE FIXING BY

BALTIMORE. April 25.-All the
open price associations thus far
investigated by the Federal Trace

have for their direct object the fix

prices, Houston Thompson, a mem.
Der OF the commission declared in
an address here today, before the
National League OF Women Voters.
II haze never found one" said
Commissioner Thompson "that did
not either fix prices or cause cur
tatlment OF production to the point
where 1t ultimately pnralyzed the
market.
The deco dominant note OF the
whole movement as determined b,
the trade commission, he added,
was an increase of urices,
Making It plain that he did not
attack all forms OF business, Mr..
Thompson defined the open price
association. as one In which the
principle producers Of an industry
organized. ito exchange currently
and constantly, through central
headquarters. all Information as TO
orders. productions and ship

tons. nationally together. the sys-
TEN resulted In EITHER fixing OF
prices, or curtailment OF production

he said. "As long as those who
control them are human beings, -
he said, after accounting tho ex-
periencc in several industries, "is
IL possible TO avoid the fixing Of
piccs and the tendency to curtail
production"
Going into details OF such organ

said It made "a most revealing
picture-of jobbers and manutac-
turers holding Up consumers

extent that the prices Of raw ma
