Fair Trade" Laws
Up To High Court
By ASSOCIATED Press

The United States Supreme
Court on Tuesday took under
advisement a request for a ruling
that state fair trade" laws cannot
be applied to retailers who want to
cut prices and refuse to sign fair
trade" contracts.
If the court decides to grant the
request, some lawyers predict the
fair trade" law of As states will be
nullified for all practical purpos-
es.
The state laws permit the fixing
OF minimum retail prices by con-
tracts between manufactures and
retailers. The laws are on the books
of all states except Vermont, Texas
and MissOuri-and The District of
Columbia.
Attorneys told the court on Tues
day that all of these laws have in
one, form or another a provision
that the minimum prices fixed bv
the contracts apply to all retailers
regardless of whether they make
price agreements with manUfactur-
ers.
Monte NJ Lemann, New Orleans
attorney for Calvert and Seagram
Distillers Corporations. in areu-
ment before the nine justices. said
that if they ruled the state laws
may not be applied to non signing
retailers, the effectiveness of the
statues would be cancelled.
"The purpose of the state laws is
to protect small merchants from
the evils of price cutting" he said.
They need this legislation to main
tain their businesses"
Lemann argued in opposition 10
the request made to the high court
by Schwegmann Brothers, operat-
ors of New Orleans supermarket.
Schwegmann sold Calvert and
Sea@ram whiskies below Louisiana
fair trade" prices. The U. S. Cir.
cult Court in New Orleans ordered
them to stop such cut rate sales.
Schwegmann then appealed to the
highest tribunal.

Assembly Last Friday
At Banneker School

On Friday morning, April 6.
1851, an assembly program was held
in the Banneker School. This pro-
gram was centered around the
practice of courtesy and respect in
our school, in the movies, on the
streets and among our associates.
The first grade sang a song en-
titled Let's Be Courteous" and had
a group recitation on courtesy. A
skit, "Practicing Courtesy in
School," was acted out by grade
two. Courtesy and Respect Among
Our Associates" was the presenta-
tion of grade three. Grades four
and five showed us the correct and
incorrect conducts in different sit
uatiOns. The sixth and seventh
grades put across the idea of the
right and wrong ways of acting in
our class rooms. Grade eight rem
dered a demonstration on incorrect
and correct cOurtesies in the class
room among students. Grade nine
presented a panel discussion on
courtesy and respect in all walks
of life.
Our visitors for the morning were
Rev. and Mrs. Randolph Fisher,
Mrs. Eva Baynard anu Miss Evelyn
Holland. Few. Fisher gave us a very
inspiring talk on Courtesy" This
talk served to culminate our home
room discussions.
We, the students of Banneker
School, have been made to realize
that our daily actions are being
watched and that they are a great
determining factor in our future
lives. AS you observe us we beg of
yOT to aid us in becoming more
cOu rteOus by reminding us of our
short comings and offering sug-
gestiCns for ways of improvement.
