SUIT AGAINST THE BUTTER TRUST FILED BY THE GOVERNMENT Seeks Dissolution of Elgin Board of Trade as a
 Trust
CONTROL PRICE OF
 BUTTER ILLEGALLY
American Creamery Manufacturers Association Also Under Fire. Manufacturers Do Not Fear
 Result of the Suit

Chicago, December 14.-The Elgin board trust, and the American Creamery Manu- lecturers association were attacked by the federal government in civil anti trust suit filed here for the dissolution of both concerns today.
 Sweeping charges of fixing the cost of butter in the interest of big manufac- turers and cold storage concerns and to the detriment of the farmer. other small producers and the consuming public are against the so-called trust, which he would destroy.
 Butter making has drifted to the large manufacturers, the natural increase in the volume of transactions has been cur tailed and prices to the people of the country have been enhanced, especially during the winter season, by the opera tions of the conspirators, according to the government petition in equity.
 Aside from the dissolution of the two or ganizations the government seeks to en- join the defendants from appointing a price fixing committee; from liking prices: from quoting or publishing figures pur- porting to be market prices unless they are based upon bonafide sales of butter; from demanding that the Elgin price be used as basis in making contracts for butter, and from making fictitious or so- called wash sales of butter to mislead as 10 the actual price at which butter Is be-

Buy Up Supply in Advance

Before the summer of each year, the petition says, the large concerns send reports through the butter producing area contracting with small manufac- turers for their entire seasons supply, based upon the prices Of the EIgin board, usually one-half or ceut high CT than the Elgin price Vast quanti- ties of butter are thus purchased from farmers and others. 1t is claimed by members of the defendant association.
 If the price fixed by the Elgin board should fall below the real economic price of butter as fixed by the law of supply and demand. the profit accru- ing from the corresponding drop in contract prices goes to the large cen tral controlling persons upon every pound of butter which had been pur- chased in advance under contract based upon the Elgin price. the petition says
 The system by which the price of butter is fixed is not generally known to the widely scattered producers, ac- cording to the plea, but on tine con- trary, it adds, the price IS published throughout the country in the press and without any accompanying state ment the price is determined and read CTS of cash quotations thus published, and particularly farmers and other small producers of butter and sellers of butter are led to believe that the quo tations are prices established by actual --~----~--- --~-

RIOTS AND ASSAULTS IN LABOR DISPUTES ARE INQUIRED INTO
Judge Anderson Scores Off, ficials of Various Cities for Not Making
 Arrests

Indianapolis. Ind, December H.-Riots and assaults in labor disputes in Cleve- land. C.. out of which, the government charges, grew explosions against employ CTS of non-union men. were inquired into at the dynamite conspiracy trial to- day.
 In hearing the testimony of Peter J. Smith. former president and business agent of local iron workers union in Cleveland, Federal Judge Albert B. An derson, who Is hearing the trial of the il union officials. said in reference to local assaults in labor disputes that had the local authorities done their duty there would not have been any need of trial here
 District Attorney Charles W. Miller had stated that there were 15 explosions in and near Cleveland and that these ex- plosons, for which no one had been pros ecuted, were the basis of the present prosecution by the government for il legal transportation of explosives. The district attorney said reign of terror had existed in Cleveland second only to that at Los Angeles,
 Smith denied he had caused any explo- sions. but he admitted he was implicated in assaults when called upon to de- fend himself"
 A Typical Assault
 As typical of the assaults, the govern ment stated that one non-union workman had had his teeth knocked out by an- ether mans heel.
 With fights going on there in Cleve- land week after week and no one ar rested for causing explosions, I would like to ask what kind of government have you in Cleveland?" asked MT. Mil. Ter.
 I've have as good a government as anywhere In the country replied Smith.
 "But they never prosecute anyone, do they?'
 ''Yes, some'
 Smith was charged with complcity in causing explosions at North Randall and Akron O., near Cleveland.
 Sixteen witnesses have appeared against you,'' said Mir Miller Among them were two little girls who said they saw you and George Anderson carrying box near North Randall the night of the explosion. Do you say all those wit nesses did not tell the truth?"
 Some of them told the truth, but I didn't know anything about the explo- sion until the next day"
 Another witness testified Smith was at the union hall the night of the explo- sion at Akron.
 Smith admitted wiien he returned to Cleveland for a visit a month after the trial began here he gave a newspaper interview in which he said, in reference to the defendants, you never would think they were there on serious business. To see them you would think they were attending a ball game"

Constitutions Steadying
