Washington reports the federal trade commission urges reopening of the anti trust suit against International Harvester and legal actions against several farm implement associations to restore competition. The commission cites a 73 percent rise in farm implement prices from 1914 to 1918 due to price understandings and dealer activity. It also proposes dissolving agencies like the National Implement and Vehicle Association and the Southern Association of Wagon Manufacturers to remove trade restraints. Cyrus H.
