retail level.
Supporters have dubbed it
the . "Quality Stabilization
Act." Foes Insist that is de
ceptive labeling. They call it
price-fixing."
Chairman Oren Harris (D
Ark.), chief sponsor of the
bill, had no trouble steering
the legislation through his
House Commerce Comir.ittee
last week despite opposition
of Kennedy administration of
ficials, the AFL-CIO and ma
jor farm organizations, and
witnesses who claimed to
speak for the nation's consum
ers and for its "senior citi
zens." Pressure Intense
The pressure for the bill's
enactment is intense. It comes
from a powerful and well-organized
lobby that has "grass
roots" planted firmly in cor
ner drug stores in cities and
towns throughout the coun
try. Independent retail drug
gists are spearheading the
drive, which is supported by
many jewelers and hardware
and appliance dealers and re
tailers of clothing and sport
ing goods. They contend there

department stores and other

The bill would empower a
manufacturer to set minimum
prices throughout the coun
try at which any of his pro
ducts bearing a "name, brand
or trademark" could be
wholesaled or retailed.
Any product from automo
biles to toothpaste to canned
soups could be covered with
one exception. The bill does
not cover those drugs which,
by law, must be sold through
a doctor's prescription.
Would Continue Lure
Should the bill become
law, manufacturers would be
under pressure from inde
pendent retail outlets to use
the authority to halt compet
itive price - cutting. Then,
anyone who sold below the
minimum price could be bar
red by court order from fu
ture sales of that particular
name-brand, or trademarked,
merchandise.

Loevinger testified that the, successful attacks in state leg-
history of this kind of retail
price maintenance under state
"fair trade laws" shows that
it does not actually help small
business. He argued that big
stores would continue to lure
customers by advertising pri
vate brands at "sensationally"
low prices.
"Once attracted into the
chain store by advertising,"
he said, "the patron knows
that the prices on branded
products are the same as
those offered elsewhere. Con
sequently, there is no induce
ment ... to shop around. The
result is that the chain stores
and the big business retailers
increase their market share of
both branded and unbranded
merchandise."
The coverage of state "fair
trade" laws which once ex
tended through almost all of
the country has receded to
about 25 states as a result of
Islatures and state courts
That is why Congress is be
ing asked to intervene with
a nation-wide law.
Covert Every Slat
The bill approved by the
committee would cover every
state, but would allow states
to gain exemption within
their borders by enacting a
state law to that effect.
Although there., may be
some foot-dragging, neither
the House Rules Committee
nor the Democratic leader
ship is likely to block House
action Indefinitely. Conse
quently, foes concede House
passage but hope the bill
somehow can be bottled up
in the Senate until the 88th
Congress adjourns next year.
Failing that, they will urge
President Kennedy to brave
the election year wrath of
druggists and other retailers
by vetoing it.

Philadelphia, he began
one unbelievable round
with a birdie on the first

third, and another birdie

him six under par tor
four holes a score prob

What did Mr. Piatt do at
this point? He decided
he had played enough
