Hardwood
Trust Must
Be Dissolved

Washington, Dec. 19.-The gov
ernment today won its suit to com
pei members of the American
Hardwood Manufacturers associa-
tion to terminate cooperative sell
ing methods and agreements al
legged to have been adopted for the
purpose of eliminating competition
among themselves and to maintain
and increase prices.
The government in carrying its
case to the supreme court charged
that the association, consisting of
603 persons and corporations en-
gagged in the production and sale
of hardwood lumber, combined
and conspired to eliminate compe-
tion among themselves and to en-
hance their selling prices in re-
straint Of trade and that they did
this by comparing and exchang-
ing under an "open competitive
plan" the reports and bulletins
concerning prices, stocks and pro-
duction.
Justice Clarke, in delivering the
decision, said it was clear from the
evidence that the plan was com
binatlon to restrict production
and 20 increase prices. The call
ing Of the organization IAN open
competition plan" was merely put
ting an old concern in a new
dress.

es was understood to have received
cablegram today from London
stating that as a result of confer
euces between Premier BRAND Of
France and George Harvey, Amer
ican ambassador, that France was
expected to accept the American
proposal for limitation of capital
ships.
The advices to Secretary Hughes
were said to bear OUT unofficiai re-
ports from London that Premier
BRAND had advised the French
delegation here to accept the
American proposal of 175,000 tons
Of capital ships for France and
italy. The French acceptance, II
was reported, was on a tonnage
and not ratio basis.
Italy Expected to Yield.
Some discussion may be neces-
sary, it was said, to bring Italy's
views into accord with the five
power ratio proposal, but no pro-
louged negotiations on that point
are expected. The complete Amer
lean proposal for expansion OF the
three cornered agreement into a
five power treaty is reported in
the Paris unofficial dispatches as
providing for a ratio of Ito 70,
