prominent manufacturers were guests.On behalf of the retail merchants, Mr.Trow- ern asked the assistance of the manufacturers in securing the repeal of section 520 of the Criminal Code, which is directed against conspiracies in restraint of trade.\u201cIt is necessary that the inter- \u2018ests of the manufacturer, wholesaler, and retailer should be united,\u201d said Mr.Trowern.\u2018We are handicapped by eec- tion 520 of the Criminal Code, which cannot be found in any other country on the face of the earth; a piece of legislation that was never put there by mänu- facturers, wholesalers and retailers, but by men who had no knowledge of the great industrial affairs of this country.The result is the hands are tied, and it is a criminal offence for the manufacturers.wholesalers and retailers to get together and consider what is best in their interests, We are the largest body in the commercial classes.The retail men are spread all over the Dominion.We have gone to Ottawa, and are asking to have that section amended, so that we can meet together intelligently and not feel that we are liable to have the police van drive up and take us away.It is a blot on the statutes.and we want to have it removed.We are in the work and in the fight.and we want you to assist in having the Criminal Code amended.\u2019 \u2014r | A NARROW ESCAPE MR.CE DEWEY, OF THE G.T.R., TORONTO, WAS IN
