SUPREME COURT IN

HARD WOOD TRUST
RULING BRANDS ASSOCIATION
AS UNLAWFUL COMBINATION
DESIGNED TO RESTRAIN COM.
PETITION AND TAKE ExCES-
SlvE PROFITS.

Washington, Dec. 20.Open compe
Manufacturers Assn. was held by the
supreme court Monday restraint
of trade in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law.
Department of justice officials said
the decision would form the basis for
the governments policy toward nun
dreds of associations maintained by
various industries to exchange trade
information Definite action II mas
been stated by Attorney General
Daugherty, has awaited today's de-
cision.
Justices McKenna, Holmes and
Brandeis dissented from the decision.
1t sustained the United state district
court of western Tennessee, which
in April 1920, granted an injunction
perpetually restraining the associa-
ton from entering into further agree
ments under the plan.
The opinion of the court was deliY-
cred by Justice Clarke, who assert
ed the plan was clear combination
to restrict production and TO increase
prices.
The meetings of the members re-
suited in concerted action, Justice
Clarke stated, to raise prices regard
less OF conditions. He added that the
plan. instead of promoting open COM
petition operated to restrict compe-
tition.
The secretary of the association,
he asserted, utilized information fur
nished by the members as the basis
for bulletins and adyices These re-
plies. he said, also were utilized in
predicting and promoting advances in
prices, by Withholding products from
the market awaiting prices.
Justice Holmes, in dissenting. stat
ed that the methods of the assoca-
ton could not beobjected to in this
country of free speech, as a combin-
ton could not be objected to in this
practice he saw nothing essentially
different from the result produced
by the government in the distribution
of information for producers.
