those who make and operate it, it
is not violative of this law.
But if its necessary effect is to
stifle or directly and substantially to
restrict free competition in commerce
among the states or with foreign ma
tions. ii is a combination or conspir-
acy in restraint of that trade and 1t
falls under the ban of the act.
"And the power to restrict competl-
titon in interstate and international
commerce vested in a person or asso-
citation of persons by a contract or
combination is indicative of its char
acter, for it is to the interests Of the
parties that such a power should be
exercised and the presumption is that
1t will be. In the case under consid-
Grafton it has been exercised II
thereby the principal company has
prevented competition between the
corporations it controls since 1899.
'In the case under consideration
the combination and conspiracy i'll re-
of trade and its continued exc
cution, which has been found TO exist,
constitute illegal means by which Il
conspiring defendants combined n
still combine and conspire to monop-
olize a part of interstate and interna-
tional and by which they
have secured an unlawful monopoly
of a substantial part and this con-
spiracy constitutes a clear and com
plete violation of the second as of the
first section of the act.
Upon the ground that the defen-
dants have thus violated and are vio-
lating the second section OF the act
as fully as upon the ground that they
have violated its first section, the de-
cree in favor of the government must
be and is based"
