  • FAIR TRADE and the ART of PRESTIDIGITATION WALTER Adamst
    FAIR TRADE AND THE ART OF PRESTIDIGITATION WALTER ADAMSt A RECENT article by Professor Herman in answer to an article of mine on the subject of fair trade ' prompts this reply. Since the record speaks for itself, I do not propose to comment on Professor Herman's techniques of disputation. FAIR TRADE AND THE CONSUMER Professor Herman objects to my statement that the case against fair trade rests on highly questionable evidence. 2 He does not consider it meaningful and accurate to say that, so long as there is effective competition among manu- facturers, fair trade is not likely to prove injurious to the consumer, but con- tends on the contrary that since fair traded products "are frequently sold in markets of few sellers . significant factors are already at work tending to '3 reduce the effectiveness of competition." Competitive conditions and structural characteristics vary, of course, from industry to industry, and only a case-by-case investigation can yield statistically significant results. However, we do have fragmentary evidence which sheds considerable light on the extent of competition among fair traded products and between fair traded and non-fair traded products. First, it is noteworthy that there are 11,842 manufacturers of nationally ad- vertised, brand-name products in 43 industrial classifications listed by the Standard Advertising Register, and, as Table I indicates, the percentage of fair trading manufacturers in each of these broad classifications is by no means staggering.4 Although Table I probably understates the extent of fair trading (because it includes only broad industry categories), there is little evidence to support the contention that " 'it is nearly always impossible for one manufacturer to estab- lish a system of vertical price fixing unless he can be sure that his competitors will do likewise ....
