SWIFT MUST QUIT
 ANDALUS|A PLANT

By HUGH W. ROBERTS
Washington Bureau. The Age-Heral

Washington Bureau, The Age-Herald
 800 Davison Building.
 Washington, August 22.-(Special.) The federal trade commission issued an order today against Swift 6 Co.,, Chicago, requiring it to divest itse.f of all the capital stock and the fruits of acquisitions therefrom of the Moultrie Packing company of Moul- trie. Ga, and the Andalusia Packing company, of Andalusia.
 The commission found, upon in- Quiry, that Swift & Co.,, in 1917 ac- quired by purchase practically the entire then outstanding capital stock of the Moultrie and Andalusia con cerns, which resulted in a substan- tial lessening of competition between these two companies and their com petitors and a complete elimination of competition between the two companies whose stock had been so acquired.
 This the commission concluded to be a violation of the Clayton act The respondent is also required to cease from further suppressing com petition in trade heretofore existing between the Moultrie Packing com pany and the Andalusia Packing company, and from further holding, owning. controlling or operating in any manner whatsoever the plants and businesses of these two con- cerns.

 In the hours discussion, which preceded the House vote. Democratic leaders predicted that the bill will not be reported out of conference dn- til after the November elections, ar guing that the Republicans did not want to have to defend it in the coming campaign.
 Republican leaders made no pro- phesy, but Representative Mondell of Wyoming, the majority leader ex- pressed the hope that 1t would be out "at no distant date"
