which to base charge of conspiracy
in restraint of trade The taking OF
testimony before Master in Chancery

dence on which to base application for
an injunction dissolving the butter and

is absolutely no such evidence in pos
session Of the department. of justice.
1t was explained today by a party
in a position to know the intentions
of the government that the butter
board is regarding simply as meeting
of individuals who give their indi-
vidual opinions as to what they will
paw for butter and what they will sell
1t for. No effort is made to control
the trade or to corner the supply.
Others may buy butter at their own
prices and sell it for what they see
fit. 1t is declared that the actions of
