Price Wars Ended;
Inquiry Dropped
BY the Associated Press

Because the price wars of late
May and early June have "all
but died out" two Senators said
last night that committees they
head have decided not to inves-
tigate.
The price war, centered in New
York. followed May 81 Supreme
Court decision that stores which
have not signed "fair trade"
agreements with manufacturers
do not have to honor minimum
prices the producers fix.
Chairman OMahoney of the
Senate House Economic Commit
tee, and Chairman Sparkman of
the Senate Small Business Com
mittee, said they have dropped
plans to hold hearings on the
question.
They said a study made for
them by Dun and Bradstreet, f.
nancial survey institution, showed
that the price war spread from
New York to only a few cities and
covered only a few items.
