The breach between the tvo officials

suit OF Looby's failure several days ago
to remove his headgear when he appeared
before the commissioner.

LIKELY TO SETTLE
SUIT AM|CAbLY

Washington, July pa friendly settle
ment, through an agreed decree, of the
proposed antitrust suit against the Amer
lean Press association and Western News
paper union, seems likely. AS the result
of extended conferences during the last
two days it was said today that all diff
ferences between the government and the
corporations as to the provisions of all
agreed DEGREES have been composed with
one exception the nature of which was
not disclosed. Officials declared that the
outlook apparently was favorable.
The attorneys for the two corporations
left Washington tonight to consult fur
Their with their officers.
Should the negotiations succeed a civil
antitrust suit would be filed and the
agreed DEGREES entered shortly after
wards. The decree would not provide for
the dissolution of either company but
contain injunctions against any unfair
methods in competition.
