Morgan notes some cases involve large firms and one has international implications with about $5,000,000 in illegal profits. Restitution may go to customers or settlements may fund the U S treasury.

Food Price Picture Foresees Stable Costs This Year
The bureau of agricultural economics says plentiful supplies should keep food prices from rising much in the year. Retail prices rose 12 percent in the last year and are expected about 10 percent higher in 1951 than 1950. Beef prices may dip during the fall but strong meat demand could prevent declines. A survey shows farmers cutting back on farm machinery purchases due to tight credit and uncertainty, with some items down as much as 50 percent from a year ago, though machinery sales average about 2 billion annually.
