Short Weight Abuses
In Frozen Foods Given
Attention al Farley

Charges of short weight, watered
products and the difficulties Of set
ting standards for packaging in the
frozen foods industry yesterday
produced a lively session for the
National Conference on Weights
and Measures in the Hotel WASH
ington.
DR.. G. Hodges Bryant, chairman
Of the Board of the Frozen Foods
Institute, said his group had tested
packages from "unethical process
sing plants where the nonessential
moisture content was greater than
the fruit or vegetable content" He
said frankly that, unless the indus
try polices itself, it faces mandatory
State and Federal legislation.
Preservatives Involved.
r. A. Osborne, chemist, with the
Food and Drug Administration, re-
counted cases in which short weights
in frozen fruits were caused by
freezing excessive amounts of pre-
servatives. He referred to the prob
lem OF. whether it is fair to call a
product "creamed salmon" when it
appears to contain more sauce than
salmon.
After two hours of discussion,
the conference voted to adopt a
report of its committee on methods
OF sale Of commodities, read by
Chairman j. G. Rodgers, calling for
sale of frozen foods on the basis of
drained weight. The report recon-
mended that all gravy, juice or
preservatives be separately noted
on the container or tag.
Fish Proposal Protested.
A chief point of difference was
over fish fillets. Several represent
atives of the frozen fish industry
objected strongly to individual
weight markings because of the
wide variations in weight of fillets
and they called for such fish to be
marked ito be weighed at time of
sale" A representative of the Ma
tional Association of Retail Grocers,
Tyre Taylor, said, however, retailers
would resist any attempt to put this
extra work onto them.
The conference will continue
through Thursday. An informal
party Is scheduled for the evening.

Seattle - FP- Cash bonds totaling
more than $500, 900 have been put up
BY members of the Seattle Automobile
Dealers Assn. as a guarantee no men,
Der firm will settle a 3-month old
m~achinists strike except on the asso-
cations terms.
The conspiracy was disclosed in a
letter to Atty Gen. Tom Clark from
Representatives OF three init. Assn. of
Machinists (unaffiilatedl lodges. which
also barred evidence of illegal price
fixing agreements among association
members and urged that Justice de-
partment men be assigned to investi-
gate.
Machinists lodge $50, whose automo-
tive machinists members have been on
strike against the 39-member associa-
ton since June "a, was joined by lodge
70 metal fabricating and shipyard
machinists) and lodge 751 taeronaut-
ical m%echanics) in pressing the
charges.
The union spokesman cited the
boast of Ed Rosling, dealer representa-
tive. that every dealer had put up
cash bonds totaling more than $780,
600. which would be forfeited by any
individual employer who attempted a
separate settlement.
THAT the association would go that
far unitedly against their w en-
ployes, wen to the point where, Mr..
ROsling said, some member dealers
might be forced out Of business, is
clear confirmation of the strength Of
their organization and the extent to
which it can, and we believe does,
operate to increase prices Illegally
the attorney general was told.
Evidence of collision In setting re
pair prices included the unions charge
that every one Of the 80 members
of this association raised their charges
for labor in the same period imme
diately after OPA went out of bust
ness. To this plain evidence of q
concerted understanding may be added
the fact that association dealers al
charge within a few cents of what
every organized dealer charges
The letter to Clark explained that
"of the $3.50 which practically all
dealers mark down on the customers
service slips as labor cost, only S1.5C
is actually paid the mechanic doing
the work" Lodge 2S9 members are
on strike to lift this flat scale to SITE
an hour.
1T is not labor's uniform wage scale
but the common understanding among
the dealers as to their extra take, over
what they pay the mechanic, which
accounts for the high conformity il
their charges for labor time" the let
ter continued.
There is reason to believe the
union spokesman warned Clark, that
