Trade Associations Seek End Of Government Competition
Nearly 100 trade association representatives met quietly in Washington to discuss plans to end government competition with private business. No formal organization or news release emerged. Industries ranged from dairy processors to ship builders and electrical contractors. The meeting aimed to inform representatives of current developments and let associations set their own future policies. Government activities competing with private business are concentrated in Army, Navy, and Air Force installations, including manufacturing and retail-style services. Contents hint at a broader push seen by observers as pressure on Congress, with past bills to curb government competition having passed the House but died in the Senate.
