Cartel papers to be made public amid price fixing claims
The House Commerce Committee voted to release a nine inch stack of documents alleging a uranium price fixing cartel existed. Westinghouse argues the price jumps from six to forty one dollars per pound between 1972 and 1975 harmed competition. Gulf Minerals Canada Ltd participated in international meetings, while Gulf says the arrangement violated no U.S. antitrust laws. Judge Hart allowed access to the papers for upcoming hearings. Rep John Moss questions if non market factors caused the price surge.
