Names of Those Wh-o

Will Attend Domin-

ference

OTTAWA Oct. 28. -All the Pro vinces. with the exception of Que- bec. have nominated their repre- sentatives at the coming Dominion Provincial conference

The list of provincial delegates

appointed to date includes the Pre- miers oi' all Provinces, except Que-

ngningt, the interest of the public is, the finding of Commissioner L. V.; oconnnn following his investlga-n tion under the Combines Investiga-| lion Act into the Proprietary Art~n inles 'I‘rade Association. This asscc-| lation is an organization of manu- facturing. wholesale and retail drugglsts who have been operating; for the last year under_ agreements ming minimum re-sale prices on ni-nprietary articles. The report was made public tonight by Hon. Peter Heenan. Minister of Labor.

In concludins his report 'Commis-l

sloner O'Connor states: “For the reasons above mentioned. and hav- ing in mind that persons engaged in the trade may lesslly orsanlw for* their mutualr protection and ad- vancement (so long as the interests of the public are not unduly im-‘ paired). I'am thoroughly convinc-

ed that the P. A. T. A., all~embrac-n ing as it is, or as it is designed to be in its control of the entire trade in nationally adveftised proprietary medicines and toilet articles, is ani organization which has operated and is l}'e1y to operate to the det- riment of and against the interest of the public." i

The P. A. T. A. was the subject of

an interim report by_F. A. McGreg- or, Registrar of the Combines In- vestigation Act, which was publish- ed ii. year ago. Following that re-i port, the P. A. T. A. claimed that they had not had adequate oppor- tunity to present their side of the case.

L. V. O'Connor. barrister, of Lind-

say, Ont., was appoint/ed commis- sioner, and A. R. McMaster. K. C. Montreal. was appointed by the Minister of Justice as counsel to conduct the investigation. Meetings were held in Montreal. Toronto and Winnipeg. i

More than B0 witnesses, including'

representatives of all branches of the trade and all parts of the Do- minion. were heard.

Mr. O'Connor comes to the con-

clusion that the P. A. T. A. is ai ooinbine within the ineanlns of the- Combines Investigation Act. In the! Commissionerfs opinion. the public interest is detrlmentally affected by
