'Fair Trade' Law Costly, Klamon Says WASHINGTON (U.P.) An economist warned congress today that reviving the so-called "fair trade" laws would cost the consuming public as much as a 10 to 12 per cent sales tax.

Dr. Joseph M. Klamon, professor of marketing at Washington University in St. Louis, made the statement in testimony prepared for delivery before the house monopoly subcommittee. Also called to testify before the subcommittee was Q.

Two house subcommittees are studying bills to restore the "fairtraded fixed--prices.

A supreme court decision last year in effect scuttled the "fair trade, laws, on the books of 45 states.

Pending bills would overturn the court decision. Fair trade supporters claim they need the price-fixing provisions to protect small, independent merchants from "predatory" price slashes by big chains and department stores. But Dr. Klamon asserted that the pending legislation would "destroy our anti-trust laws" and "would seriously affect the living standards of a large portion of our population." He said the "fair trade" laws during the years they were in operation "cost the consuming public many billions in higher fixed prices on branded goods." a Briarbrok Petite tailored by Leslie Fay Feminine Flannel -endorsed for sweet fit and flattery! $3295 Eye-filling little suit with NO FIGURE precisiontested to fit your petite figure to a if you're 5'5" or less!

Jacob 314 N. Washington St. Lands in Jail After Pursuit Of His Canary EVANSTON, I11. J. Lance, 56, shared a cage with his canary today.

Lance, a radio advertising executive, was seated in his hotel room Sunday enjoying a drink. The canary, whom Lance identitied as Clarence, also was enjoying himself, twittering on the arm of a nearby chair. Peace was everywhere. Then Lance opened a window. Clarence fled.

Lance pursued, down the stairs, of course, and out into the street, dressed in his smoking jacket and hat. Frantically, Lance signaled a passing cab driven by Edward Sholin. He Sholin what Clarence had done, then climbed into the cab and together they cruised into the night looking for Clarence. Sholin shined his spotlight en rooftops and trees. Clarence was no where.

Lance's tension mounted as the minutes passed and no sign of Clarence. The two-way radio in Sholin's cab began to get on Lance's nerves. He asked Sholin to turn it off. Against the rules, Sholin explained. Lance reached out and seized the transmitter.

His anger poured out over the air waves into the cab company office where it was heard by the dispatcher. Shocked at the outburst, the radio operator summoned police. Officers Walter Obezak and Chester Markiewicz went to the scene. Just as they screeched to a halt alongside the cab, Lance spotted Clarence seated in the gutter. He jumped from the cab, stole up on his little feathered friend and picked him up.

Cooing gently, he wrapped Clarence his handkerchief, then put the tender little bundle in his hat. At that point, the officers moved in and got their man. Lance was charged with disorderly conduct and was lodged in a cell pending an appearance today before Municipal Judge Harry H. Porter. Clarence also was locked up in the same cell.

No charge was placed against him. Lisbon CONCLUDED FROM PAGE 1 will provide insurance against sudden attack Russia's Koreanproved jets or new long-range bombers. The Atlantic council also gave its blessing here to the European Defense community (EDC). That is a plan for a supra-national European force made up of French, Italian, West German, Belgian, Dutch and Luxembourg fighting men. Eisenhower would be in command, just as he would over United States, British and other forces committed to NATO but outside EDC.

The European army is a long way from existence still. each nation must sign a treaty. Then each parliament must ratify it. Only then can German recruiting begin. Eisenhower now has less than 30 divisions combat-ready or available within two weeks.

Douglas MacArthur will give him solid support for the Republican presidential nomination when the chips are down at the Chicago convention. Taft would not comment, but friends say he isn't worried about reports MacArthur might be thinking of himself as a possible nominee if a deadlock develops between Taft and Gen. Dwight D.

Eisenhower. Evidence of Taft's confidence in MacArthur was seen Sunday when said on a television program he favored the general addressing the convention. If he does, Taft added, he probably would be the keynote speaker.But he sidestepped direct swer to whether he plans to name MacArthur head of the joint chiefs of staff if elected. He he hasn't been elected yet, and was not announcing any appointments. Didn't Deny Backing Taft's supporters regard as significant that MacArthur did not deny.

News- magazine's article week that he was a Taft backer. In statement, MacArthur referred to what he called "misleading headlines, captions and advertisements" of the article. He said these led to "erroneous speculation on my political, views." As for Eisenhower, MacArthur said: "I do not support his didacy for political office as have no slightest knowledge of his political beliefs or his views on many grave issues which now confront our nation."

WISCONSIN Ferguson Says Treasury Lax Senator Charges Rules Stretched; Cites Moves Of Nunan in Tax Cases WASHINGTON- (AP) -Senator Ferguson (R-Mich) today accused the treasury department of "stretching its rules" to let a former internal revenue commissioner represent tax-troubled clients. A treasury official called the contention "somewhat far-fetched." Ferguson said in an interview the treasury "had no business whatsoever" authorizing Joseph D.

Nunan, former chief of the revenue bureau, to represent clients in tax difficulties with the government. "I think the department was did that and I am thinking stretching its own whebout introducing legislation whien would prevent it in the future," Ferguson said. Would Welcome Move they Treasury, officials welcome a said move Sunday by congress to clamp rigid restrictions on former government officials seeking to represent clients before government agencies. In fact, a spokesman said, the treasury urged a sweeping bar against the practice in 1936, but congress did nothing about it. As a result, the treasury said in a statement, it worked up its own restrictions which "go far beyond the prohibitions imposed by congress." The treasury said tthe only law on the subject, basically unchanged since 1873, bars a former employee for two years after leaving service from prosecuting any claim against the United States that was pending while U.S.

The United States, Britain and 1 France are conferring through diplomatic channels on new ways to prod Russia into agreeing to a four power peace treaty for Austria. The project recently has taken on new importance in the face of ominous signs that Russia is actively stirring up trouble in the jointly -occupied country.

Soviet actions under close watch by the west include: 1. Behind-the-scenes Soviet efforts to discredit and unseat Austria's pro-western foreign minister, Karl Gruber. 2. Charges made for the first time Moscow's Pravda newspaper that the western powers are planning to split Austria into two parts by writing a separate peace treaty. State department officials said the charge was sheer nonsense." 3.
