Five Drug Firms
On Trial For Sulk
Vaccine Price-Fix

TRENTON. N. J.-(CNS)-Why
did five big drug firms charge iden-
tical prices for Salk polio vaccine,
"down to the fourth decimal point?'
The answer began unfolding in U. s.
district court here recently.
The government charges that the
big drug firms conspired together
to fix prices and eliminate competi-
ton. Lawyers for the companies, in
cluding Thomas E. Dewey, say the
prices were identical because of
the hard, tough competition of the
business world"
The firms are American Home
Products, Eli Lilly, Sharp & Dohme,
Parke Davis, and Allied Laboratories.
They are charged as criminals. A
jury and Judge Philip Rorman are
hearing the case.
Lewis Bernstein, who's presenting
the governments case, first brought
Joseph Nicholson, former purchas-
ing agent for Milwaukee, to the
stand. In January 1857, the city
wanted to buy polio vaccine, and
Nicholson asked drug wholesalers to
bid on the job, he said.
He got II identical bids and one
from Louis Violin of Mineola, N. Y,
that was $50 lower than the others.
But before Nicholson could accept,
Violin said he couldn't deliver the
vaccine and was withdrawing his bid.
Violin testified that an Allied
Laboratories official said he wouldn't
sell Violin the vaccine because his
bid violated the company's price pol
icy. So Nicholson put the IL names
in hat and pulled out one who got
the order.

Bradford, whose activities in the
last legislative session have centered
upon the Montana Highway Commits
sion controversy, has been considered
by many a potential candidate for the
additional District Judgeship to be
created here in 1860. Strong politi-
cal opinion reported to this news
paper, however, indicates that the
local attorney would consider the
gubernatorial race in preference to
all offices should the Democratic
finger point his way.
Many observers informed THE
INDEPENDENT in a brief survey
that Bradford "holds a good chance
for victory, should he rum.
Hugh Lemire, Montana Democratic
Central Committee chairman, told
this newspaper Wednesday that he
felt Bradford "would conduct as
formidable campaign as anybody
in the running.
81 heard Bradford's name men
toned as long ago as the State Bar
convention last summer when the
Williams case was starting" Lemire
said. "Of course" he added, 'the pri-
mary is wide open to all candidates,
but believe Bradford would conduct
as formidable a race as any candi-
date"
Other Democrats who have indi-
Gated interest in the governorship
include Jack Toole of Shelby, 1t. Gov.
Paul Cannon, John Mahan of Helena,
Danny O'Neil of Havre, Arnold Olsen
of Helena and Congressman Lee Met
calf.
Cascade County Legislator Pat Gil
feather said Wednesday he believed
Bradford franks high among posi-
bilities' in this gubernatorial list.
"Bradford's level treatment of the
highway matter and the issues which
have come to light since he began
the investigation indicate the kind
of down-to-earth leadership he can
offer"
Bradford, who is associated with
Bradford and Graybill law
firm here, is former Great Falls
mayor, having served in that capacity
from 1949 to 1851. He also was
county attorney in 1947-1949, and

"Rising industrial and domestic
uses of water, one of the nations
most vital resources, is rapidly Gre
ating a critical condition." DR.. Renne
said.
"There is a rapidly increasing rate
of per capita use of water and at the
same time there is soaring popula-
tion increase. Full development of
our water resources is a must"
DIR. Renne emphasized that there
is a place for both public and private
water resource development, and said
that in the case of public dams, the
main function of the federal govern
ment should be to assure optimum
utilization of the multiple purpose
resources and not to compete with
private enterprise in such utilization.
In the presidents talk, Sound
Water Resource Development, he
told the Chamber Committee that
the federal government cannot es-
cape three important responsible
ties in multiple purpose water de-
velopment projects.
He listed these responsibilities as:
"(1) provision for inter-govern-
mental machinery to assure (a) joint
and co-ordinated Investigations, plan
ming, programming, (b) budgeting
for full development, use and bene-
fit. and (c) minimum dislocation;
(2) Financing construction and
operation of multiple purpose prof.
ects that benefit the public generally
in ways such as flood, pollution, and
sedimentation control, preservation
and enhancement of fish and wild
life, and development of recreational
resources; and

Field Hearing On
Park Power Supply
Deal DELAYED

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(REI)-
Field hearings on the lucrative cost
plus power contract given Montana
Power Company for electric service
in Yellowstone National Park may
not be held until after Congress
comes back to town next year. House
Government Operations subcommit-
tee Chairman Rep. John Moss (Cal.)
has described the contract a ode
liberate waste of public funds.
Parks Service Engineer Samuel s..
Hoover revealed on October that
he had recommended the govern
ment sign contract with Montana
Power Company last February, de-
spite the fact the neighboring rural
electric co-ops had offered lower
rates.
Moss at that time called for field
hearings on the contract and said
the probe would continue later this
month and in November with special
hearings in Montana, Wyoming and
Idaho.
Subcommittee staffers last week
said that no dates had been set for the
field hearings due to the amount of
work the full House Government OPP
erations Committee had scheduled
this fall.
This indicates that Moss apparent
ly intends to conduct thorough hear
ings on the Yellowstone contract,
and feels the busy schedule at pres
ent would hamper full investigation.

1885," DIR. Renne said, "and by 1875,
only Is years hence, water use is ex-
pected to rise more than so per cent
above present daily use of about 900
gallons per person"
"At the same time" he explained,
"the per capita use will be spread
over more people. We now have about
18O million people, each using about
900 gallons each per day, but in so
years we could have $40 million peo-
pie using far more than that amount
per person"
Referring to the federal govern
ment's responsibility, Renne said
1t is the utilization of certain dam
sites where several major uses can
be served that the federal govern
ment has important responsibilities.
There must be an insistence on full,
balanced, overall development of
these sites in the public interest"
"Such sites are definitely limited"
DR.. Renne pointed out and said that
development should be governed by
basic, well established principles, in

ITS RESPONSIBILITIES
''The federal government is not

quately, especially the first" DR..
Renne added.
''It is we'll KNOWN" he said, ''that
a serious lack of coordination and
effective planning in water resource
development exists at the federal
level"
'This results in excessive develop
ment costs; lack of uniform evalua-
ton, authorization and reimburse
ment standards; and failure to
achieve optimum development or ben
efits," Renne explained.
The MISC president pointed out
that many areas of the nation face
such water shortage problems that
economic growth may stop. He cited
the highly industrially developed area
along the Connecticut River which
flows through four states in a few
hundred miles.
This river is heavily polluted at
points, DR.. Renne said, and industry
and the public are greatly concerned
about both the pollution and supply
problems. Industry in the area will
need full scale development of this
river for full industrial development,
Renne said.
