Attorney General Wants Company Cut
Up Into Distinct Units and compe-
tition Restored.
St. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 6.-Attorney
General James McReynolds, conclud-
ing final arguments for dissolution of
the International Harvester company
before the United States district
court, asked that an interlocutory de-
cree be entered by the court, declaring
the Harvester concern monopoly in
restraint of trade.
The attorney general requested that
the defendants have a reasonable time
to submit to the court a proper plan
of reorganization.
1T is the view of the government
that this company must be cut up into
separate and distinct units" the attor-
ney general said. This must be done
in such way that the stockholders of
the different parts must be distinct
We insist that it is an economic i'm
possibility for companies owned by the
same people to furnish bonafide COM
petition"
Mr.. McReynolds condemned Cyrus
Mccormick, whom he called the found
er of the Harvester trust" because
Mr.. Mccormick had not appeared in
the case.
Mr.. McReynolds reviewed the ca
reer of the Harvester company from it's
organization ten years ago.
strTho cfnry of fhic rnnpnp-
oily, marking time. or losing business
here and there, as related by some Of
the counsel for the defense, is alb
surd," he said.
'In 1903 the total business done by
the International Harvester company
was $53,000,000; in 1912 it had in
creased to s125,OOO,OOO; in the same
length of time it's capital had increased
from $120,000,000 to 163,000,000, and
between 1903 and 1911, the latest fig
ures available, the assets of this con-
Germ had increased from $3.50, ,000,000 to
$223. 100000.
"Of course there has been some
competition. We got that story in the
tobacco case and in numerous other
trust cases. But the fact stands out
that we have more than 80 per cent
Of the great harvesting companies of
the country put under one company.
"No man who looks on that picture
can fail to see that this concern had
the absolute power to fix prices.
Intent is wholly immaterial. Philan.
thropic purposes cannot be pleaded as
justification
@ John p. Wilson. during his summing
uu for the defense, predicted price
war among the Harvester manufactur-
ing firms. He did not demand ac-
quittal, but asked that the court dis
miss the case without prejudice to
either side, thus reserving to the gov
ernment the right to intervent at any
time in the future.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Mercy.
nolds' argument court was adjourned
and the case was taken under advise
