On Forth

NEW YORK az The alleg-
ed war between Mays and
Gimbei's has become a national
symbol Of retail enterprise-and
the gag Does Macy tell Gimbel?"
is a national slogan of CONNER
cial shrewdness. The Macy-Gim-
bel war has provided both Macy
and Gimbel with some Grade A
publicity But now for the first
time they seem prepared to get

thrown out price-fixing laws,
Macy and Gimbel can square off

do, they viii not be out of the

Geographically, Mays and
GimbePs are separated by the
block-long mass of another store
--Saks saith Street. But Saks is a
puppet Of Gimbel's, so the two
concerns face each other across
the milling females of West oath

Soon after the price fixing de

proclaimed anew that nobody but
nobody undersells Gimbers. And

cause Of the ruling, In effect,
each guarantees to undersell the
other-a neat trick.
The financial resources of r. Fl.
Macy and Company are among
the largest on earth. In the last
ten years, Macy has sold some
thing like a billion dollars worth
of goods. 1t is the biggest retail
store in the world any way you
look at il And its buying has a
ioltIng effect on any wholesaler
or manufacturer who may sell to
it. Thus without the protection
of minimum price laws, few man
ufacturers could tell r. II. Macy
what price 10 fix on any item.
But the Gnmbel Enterprise is
almost as formidable. The COM

Hope Abandoned For Fairbanksan Lost In Crevasse

ANCHORAGE, (R - Hope was abandoned today for a Fairbanks youth lost in an ice crevasse on Bartlett Glacier and the Air Force called searchers back to their base,
 The Elmendorf public informa- ton officer said 10th Rescue Squadron trail crew, which has searched the glacier for 19-year- old Gerald D. Ross, reported fur ther search appeared hopeless.
 A helicopter taking part in the search crashed and burned in an emergency landing yesterday.
 The pilot had been flying over the glacier with Bob Rose seek ing a trace of Ross who Rose said fell into crevasse on the ice pack while on a hiking trip Sunday.
 The trail crew, backtracking Rose, found the crevasse he de- scribed Crewmen said they fired guns and shouted in the ice crack which they said was several hun dred feet deep. They received no reply. Since two feet of new snow covered the area and the crevasse was extremely dangerous no at tempt was made to descend. How ever, the crewmen were certain that Ross was dead, the Elmen- dorf Air Force PIC said.
 Ross was the son of MT. and Mrs. J. G. Ross of Fairbanks. The father is construction worker and the mother is an employe of the Northern Commercial CO.
 The father said, "We've tried to face it because we knew you don't live five days trapped in glacier crevasse."

 The amendment is not in the House-passed $7,2O0,O00,0O0 tax in- crease bill and thus would be sub- ject to action in conference be- tween the two branches.
