Denies Charges by Federal Trade Commission
Tacoma, Wash., March 6-The Fir Door fnstitute, of Tacoma, Wash., today issued a blanket denial to charges by the Federal Trade Commission that it has been guilty of collusion and restraint of trade in the manufacture of Douglas fir doors.
"These charges," said John O'Hara, managing director of the Fir Door Institute, "are absolutely without foundation and, of course, are denied altogether.'
Mr. Harte said that the inquiry into the practices of the fir door industry had been completed by the Government more than a year ago, and questioned their publication at this time during an ele,ction year. He said the officers of the Institute were no longer those listed on the bill of complaint.
IVIr. Harte said the Institute welcomed the inclusion of other technicalities in the Trade Commission's complaint, as these were of a nature that could well stand clarification.
"Some of the points raised by the Commission," said Mr. Harte, "have to do with the establishment of industrywide standards, backed by inspection.
"Such standards.were actually promulgated by the U.S. Bureau of Standards, in Washington, and apply to practically every industry in the United States. So that when the Commission objects to such standards it is, in effect, attacking an activity by another branch of the Federal government.
"The other charges in the complaint are equally denied and can be fully answered, and will so be answered by the Institute, and the companies involved in this action, at a date to be set in Washington.
"\Me are confident that final outcome of these hearings will be complete exoneration of the fir door industryr aadapproval of the manner they are producing doors in mil-' lions for the homes so badly needed in America toCa).i'
