TILE MEN SUBJECTED
TO FEDERAL PROBE
Grand Jury Opens Investigation
on Charges Of Violation of
Antitrust Act

A Federal Grand Jury today began a
thorough Investigation of charges that the
Tile. Crate and Mantle Association of
Philadelphia, whose members are composed
of retail tile dealers of this city, New Jer-
sey and Delaware, is injuring the business
of competitors not members of the asso.
ciation by violating the sherman antitrust
law
The inquiry Is being IN lde under the di-
rection Of Henry Mitchell, Special Assistant
Attorney General and Ernest Harvey, As
sistant United states District Attorney, of
this city.
Independent retail dealers complain that
the association has so tied up the trade to
the advantage of its members that the for
mer are unable to do business. BY agree
ments with tile manufacturers, tile labor
unions price agreements, penalties upon
members for failing to observe the .canOns
of the association and other measures the
association, independents assert, is gradu-
ally freezing them out.
Because the striCtest secrecy is main
tanned in a Federal Grand Jury investiEa-
ton, neither Mr.. Harvey nor Mr. Mitchell
would discuss the purpose Of the probe.
In these early stages the investigation
will cover the activities of the association
In Philadelphia New Jersey and Delaware,
and whether it's scope will be made more
far-reaching depends upon the character
OF evidence that is laid before the Grand
Jury,
Twenty-eight retail dealers are members
OF the association, it was said. The as
