Louis From City LFff 033100 In the works in congress is a bill by Senator O'Mahoney of Wyo ming, consistent foe of monopoly, to legajize the system of quoting delivered prices. Over a year "ago the supreme court ruled that the long-established system of basing point pricing violated the anti trust law. This threw business into a tizzy, as big" producers started, quoting prices on a factory basis. Some manufacturers were hard hit, like New England fabricators who use a great deal of steel and iron and found they had to pay the freight from Pittsburgh or Spar rows Point, Maryland. . Senator Myers p( Pennsylvania, new deal democrat, was first to come upwith a bill to legalize the basing-point method; but after considerable discussion in congress and with the federal trade com mission which initiated the origin al test cases, O'Mahoney drafted a bill that seems to satisfy the indus trialists and the trade commission. O'Mahoney's bill permits con cerns to quote prices on a deliver ed basis, but they must avoid any collusion in determining their pri ces. That would still be consider ed Illegal restraint of trade. It will allow manufacturers to establish price zones for their products, and they would be free to absorb freight charges to meet competi I J:.

W. Corbett of San Fran- Cisco vice president of the South- em Pacific, made it clear the com mittment was for purely "explora tory ' survey work, and said de finitely it was "assumed"' that any move to relocate the trucks else- where than on 12th street "will not be at our expense." Corbett and L. P. Hopkins of Portland, SP district superintend ent, also scouted any possibility of abandoning the Union street tracks ftn routf trains from Wpst ! Salem along Front street and east on Trade street), declaring that both the sharp curve and the grade at the corner of Marion and Front streets precluded such a plan.

County Engineer Hedda Swart said it would be impossible to continue the waterfront plan south to Albany, because of ground slip- i page in the terrain involved an uninterrupted east-west route, HUhway Plan Cited To Corbett's question as to "what would happen to 12th street if the Government, reports today tracks were moved off."
