File — Box: 99, Folder: 8
Scope and Contents
Correspondence in opposition to legislation (S. 1008), known as the Basing Point Bill, concerning the application of the Federal Trade Commission Act and the Clayton Act to allow for the absorption of freight where it is done in good faith to meet competition. Opponents argued that the legislation would reduce the ability of small businesses to compete with larger chain stores. Senator Maybank supported the legislation.
