Manufacturers Guarantee Only a Form of Insurance
Washington Oct 6. A Federal Trade Commission hearing heard business representatives defend manufacturers' guarantees against price declines as a form of insurance that transfers losses to manufacturers and forces dealers to sell at the lowest price. They argued the device preserves price stability and prevents bankruptcies, citing cases of large refunds and noting how safeguards could have prevented sugar price peaks and widespread bankruptcies without the practice. Opponents contended it enables overstocking and price manipulation, with no real protection against dealer losses.

Three Contests in G. O. P. Primaries
In city alderman races the Sixth, Tenth and Twelfth districts are heating up as Republicans meet tonight to nominate candidates. Albert J Knapp leads the Sixth with Leonard Tesiys forces, while Franka Kisco seeks to back A Baker against James Leon backed by Leonard forces in the South district. Leon is backed by American Legion and district chairman TE Boory, with a challenge to debate Baker before the primaries. In the Eighteenth district Arthur F. now Nave backs John Caldwell for alderman, but George W. King of the Gas Light Co. is favored by the Doolan faction and a new club at 1175 Stratford Ave. If two clubs run, two nominees may emerge, though the town committee is not expected to recognize Leon-backed candidates. Harmony claimed in the First district as FE Stown seeks the nomination without opposition. The primaries will be held tonight at various polling places.
