verdict completely in favor Of the
defendants.
The court, in its charge to the jury,
pointed out that the reason stated by
the defendants for not selling to the
plaintiff at dealers prices was that
they were forced to decide between
two alternatives-to deal with the CO.
operative leagues, such as the plain
tiff was assumed to be, and lose the
business of the regular dealers, or
to say we will not deal with the CO.
operative leagues and We will keep
the favor and the support of the reg
ular Dealers"
Further, the court said:
'If the plaintiff was not entitled to
the consideration accorded to, and re-
ceived by, regular retail dealers in
the ordinary course of trade, then to
refuse to deal with them as regular
retail dealers was no restraint of
trade"
Again, the court said that the jury
would have to ask itself this ques-
ton, namely:
WAS the10 any necessity for Mr..
Raymond, representing the Goodrich
company, with it's standing in the
trade, to appeal to other tire max
ers to join with it in such an agree
ment against this corporation? Was
there any benefit to accrue to the
Goodrich company to do this sort OF
thing?"
And the jury decided in favor OF
the defendants.
The Goodrich company will con-
til ue with its uniform and long-es-
tablished policy, which has been and
is and will be to- protect its dealers
and refuse to sell at dealers prices
to consumers under whatever form
of association they may be banded to-
gether.

Washington, May 2O.-Congress to-
dav completed its part in the enact
ment of the first administration pre-
naredness measures by sending the
army reorganization bill to President
Wilson for his signature.
The house approved, with only 20
dissenting votes, the conference re-
mort on the army measure which al

with a peace strength of more THAI
100000 men, backed by federallzed
National Guard of more than 100000
and carries many reorganizing tea-
lures worked out by the department.

spend more than s1,OO000O,OO0 within
the next FIVE years, congress still mas
