Wright Patman
John William Wright Patman (August 6, 1893 – March 7, 1976) was a U.S. Congressman from Texas in Texas's 1st congressional district and chair of the United States House Committee on Banking and Currency (1965–75). A self-styled "populist" he energetically attacked the banks, the banking system, and the Federal Reserve system. He sponsored the Robinson-Patman Act of 1935. It was designed to protect small retail shops against competition from chain stores by fixing a minimum price for retail products.〔Roger D. Blair, and Christina DePasquale.
