The indictment charged that unlawful price-fixing hampered veterans administration In pro viding veterans with artificial limbs. The indictment, charging vio lation of the anti-trust law, named a trade association, 45 corporations and 34 individuals who manufacture approximate ly 75 per cent of the limbs and 00 per cent of the parts and ac cessories used in this country's $10,000,000-a-year artificial limb business. Attorney General Tom C. Clark, who announced the In dictment, said the effect of the alleged conspiracy was "to de prive the U. S. Veterans Admin istration of the opportunity to make artificial limbs for war veterans and to force the Vet erans Administration, as well as various state agencies, to pay non-competitive prices for arti ficial limbs." War veterans purchasing limbs direct from manufactur ers are forced to "pay high and non-competitive prices," Clark said, and charitable Institutions are prevented from making limbs free of charge. facturers prices might be "con siderably above" 1942 prices due to higher production costs.
