 Fair treatment by the corporation of without monopolistic or unfair trade practices, was claimed by R. V. Linda bury, counsel for the defendants. 'An abnormal, illegal and grossly nation of combinations" was how the corporation was characterized by Hen ry E. Cotton, special assistant to the attorney-general
 MT, Lindabury denied that corpora tion has the power or disposition to oppress competitors and asserted that only the Sovernment-not customers or competitors-had complained of it's effect.
 '"The trade feels no oppression: cus- toners and employs are satisfied" he said, in concluding his argument. 'If there ever was a concern entitled to Judgment that 1t is the performing with clean. honest and fair conduct and beneficial effect on industry, this is one This is not the time. when we are endeavoring to mobilize our in- dustries to disintegrate or destroy them"

If the council should decide to appoint a man not a physician to perfofm the duties of a health officer, as has been the custom in the past, then s208 a year would amply pay for the service rendered. MT. Stanton resigned for the reason that long experience as su- perintendent of health has convinced him that a physician should hold the office.
