With regard to the United Mine
Workers of America the court
found that the International or
ganization and it's officers did not
order the strike or ratify it and
that, they should not have been
made parties to the suit.
The lower federal courts had
awarded the Coronado and eight
other coal companies damages
am mounting to S6OO,000 against the
United Mine Workers of America
and district union No. 21. The
damages were held to have result
ed from the acts of fsunion miners,
on the ground that the acts were a
part of a conspiracy to restrain
interstate shipments of coal.
Discussing the details Of the
strike, Chief Justice Taft said the
evidence showed the violence waa
purely a union attack under the
guidance of the district officers OF
the union.

Federal Trade Commission to
Oppose Merger Now
Proposed.

WASHINGTON, June 5: The
Federal Trade Commission has is
sued formal complaint against
the Bethlehem Steel Corpora ton
and the Lackawanna Steel Co..
charging that they have been and
are using unfair methods of com
petition. The complaint grows out
of the merger recently effected by
the two companies. The commls-
sion made this. announcement IN
report to the Senate in response
to the recently adopted resolution
of Senator LaFollette of Wlscon-
sin, directing inquiry into the mer-
ger by the commission ana the De-
partment of Justice.
Stating that it had the proposed
merger of steel companies sunder
investigation prior to action OF the
LaFollette resolution and had close
ly followed developments along
that line. the commission SAID 1t
nov had reason to belieye,y1n the
Language of its constituent act,
I that the proposed Bethlehem, Lack
avanna merger when consummat-
| ed will constitute an unfair meth:
Cd Of competition in that it contains
dangerous tendency un duly to
hinder competition and restrain
commerce and that procee ding By
the company in tins respect IS an
the public interest.
/ The commissioner emphasized
that the issue. of the complaint ex-
pressed.no final judgment as to the
| legality of the Bethlehem-Lack cka-
wanna merger. That is a! question,
the commission said, to be deter
mined after hearing OF the TWO
companies on July "A.
The commission also referred to
the pending merger of the Midvale
Steel e. Ordnance Co. the Repub-
ilic Iron & Steel Co.. and the Inland
steel Co, but said it has not yet
been able to reach a reason toshe-
llievs either that the proposed three
| company merger will or will not
lcarry the same tendency and ca
pacity as: in the case Of the Beth
llehem-La merger.
5'sThe deails of this plan" how.
ever. the, commission added, "are
being carefully followed and as
soon. as! the commission is in pos.
session of sufficient information it
viii make a further report to the
iSenate as to the second OF these
proposed mergers"
