If, however, either decline to submit to the arbitration committee of this association, then arbitration as abwve proposed, must be accepted by both. 3d: If either should decline to ar bitrate, then the decision will go by default and In favor of the one agree ing; to accept arbitration. 4th: li haa the same right to file complaint with the arbitration com mittee of this association against S that S has in the above to file against B. 6th: The loser In each arbitration o pay the expenses of the arbitra tion. 6th: A copy of all complaints filed shall be sent to each member of this association with a copy of the de cision, and this to he used for future reference by the members ot the as. soclation. 7th: Each member of the asso ciation will thus be advised of the nature of all complaints, who Is the complulnant. decision by the arbitra tion committee, etc.. while now, each member knows onlv of his own trou bles and oftentimes must submit to unfair and unjust settlements, t 8th: This method of settling differ ences Is adsoiuteiy f rlaot etaoinsru ences is absolutely fair to tha honest buyer and seller and will eliminate sooner or later l'o unfair and un businesslike methods of any- mill, commission house or buyer.
