Not satisfied with his oral dissent

entirely rewrote the stenographic re-
port of his remarks from the bench.

In connection with what he terms
q "mischievous modification" Justice
Harlan quotes the chief justice as
saying that 1T does not necessarily
follow that because an illegal restraint

or monopolization resulted from the
combination and the transfer of the
stocks of the subsidiary corporations
to the New Jersey corporation, a like
restraint OF trade or attempt to mo

necessarily arise from agreements be

corporations after the transfer of the
stock by the New Jersey corporation

Justice Harlan, "the subsidiary com
panies are thus, in effect informed
