Exclusive Trade
Contracts Invalid

Washington, April 10.-Contracts
Of sale made by manufacturers,
requiring retail dealers exclusive
iy to handle their products, which
may haze the effect TO lessen COM
petition substantially; were today
held TO be invalid by the supreme
court.
The opinion was delivered by
Justice Day in a case brought by
the Standard Fashion company, a
New York corporation. against the
Magrane Houston company Of Bos-
ton. and sought to compel the re-
tai, company to observe the terms
of a. contract which the supreme
court declared was one Of sale and
not Of agency Or joint venture.
Being a contract Of sale, Justice
Day stated, the only question which
remained for the court to deter
mine was whether the facts es-
tablished that it would substantial
ly lessen competition.
Adopting the findings Of the cir
cult court Of appeals for the first
circuit Of the results obtained
through the contract, the su-
preme court reached the conclusion
That the contract, properly in
terpreted. with its restrictive co-e-
nant, brings it fairly within the
section Of the Clayton act under
consideration" 1t therefore af-
firmed the decision Of the circuit
court which held the contract in
valid.
Under its contract the Standard
Fashion company agreed TO sell its
standard patterns at discount Of
30 per cent. from retail prices and
to allow certain return privileges
when between certain dates semi
annually it would receive in eX-
change at nine-tenths cost discard
ed patterns. In July, 1917. the
Magrane Houston company decid-
ed to discontinue the sale of the
Standard Fashion company pat
terms and placed on sale in It's
store patterns of q rival pattern
company 1t was to enforce its
contract that the fashion company
brought suit.

Odessa, the Famous
Chicago Of Russia

Odessa. March 16.-ThiS former
Chicago of Russia, and destined
soon to be again the principal eX-
port and import center Of the new
Ukraine Soviet Republic. today
presents the appearance Of house
from which the owner has been
away on long journey and left it IN
the charge Of careless keepers.
Despite the many conflicts which
have taken place in this city since
the workmen captured it in the fall
of 1917, the we'll built docks, the
solid business houses and the spIen-
did residences are in good repair,
externally and seem to wear an
expectant air ready for the Old
prosperity to return.
Unlike Baku and Tiais, Astrak-
han. Batum and dozens OF other
cities the correspondent has visited
in Russia, there is not the air Of
finality of destruction and hopeless
ness that so characteriZes them.
There has been destruction, Of
course, but not SO much from war
as from necessity. The huge pub
lie market, covering several city
blocks has been torn down and its
stones used in street repairs. On
the waterfront the port looks III
good condition.
But the lack Of fuel in the city
for several years has led to the de-
struction of a part OF the grain
elevators, once capable OF storing
100000 tons of export wheat. In
some instances their wooden roofs
are gone. A quarter Of a mile of
the loading apparatus, consisting
Of steel and wooden frames for
handling the belt and bucket sys-
TEN of pouring wheat into the
ships alongside has been torn down
for firewood. The Peresk ware
houses must be restored.
Coming into the city, along the
railway line from .<iev the train
runs for half mile, along the
gaunt walls Of big buildings the
roofs and upper stones Of which
are gone.
For all this the city maintains
itself solidly. The sewage, water
works and electric light systems
function.
There is no doubt that Odessa
can and will come back quickly.
The saddest feature Of Odessa 5
life has 10 do with the immediate
present. Coming in on the train.
there was whole car full Of dead
people. frozen during long weeks o.
travel or dead from hunger or
from typhus.
On the very streets OF once proud
and prosperous Odessa where bread
could be had by The baskettull
there are daily dropping dozens
of people. i'll and dying from hung
er and typhus.
In the only large restaurant IN
the city furnishing people beg the
privilege OF sweeping the scraps
from the table and these scraps
they eat. These hungry persons
were once well-to-do people now
thinned down TO the skin and

Allendale Comes Back.
News and Courier)

AilenG2Ie county, IN the SOuln-
western part Of South Carolina,
bordering on the Savannah river,
was one of the first counties in this
Estate to be invaded by the boil Wee
vii. It is one Of the first counties
to find the way back TO prosperity
by way OF diversified farming. N.
L. Willett, who writes on agricul-
tural topics for the Augusta Chron-
icle. has been looking into the hog
situation in Allendale, and has made
up a list of 20 commercial herds
"all having around a hundred
head and shipping possibly one
car each per year" There are, Of
course, a good many other CONNER
Icial herds in the county. Indeed.
the AllendaIe County Citizen says
that whereas three years ago there
had probably not been two cars Of
hogs shipped from Allendale coun-
ty." now scarcely week passes
that at least one carload does not
leave some station in this county
for northern Or eastern markets. 4"
The Citizen continues:
Not only hogs, but every other
farm product that can be imagined.
are shipped from this county ev-
cry week in proportions that sounds
like fairy tales when spoken Of in
regard to this section which only q
few years back was SO completely
under the rule Of King Cotton.
Hogs, cattle. poultry, eggs, pota-
toes. hay, grain. beans, peas, vege-
tables Of every kind. truck in great
ly increased quantities. and every
other imaginable product that AL
lendafe soil can produce, leave here
daily for a ready market in testi-
nony OF the most complete and
rapid transition from an all-cot-
ton system to the most diversified
system Of any in the State, that has
ever been brought about.
"a large part of the credit for
this nerdful and aggressive change
is due TO the county and home
demonstration agents Of this coun-
". backed. of course, by an in
telligent farming class with fore
sight and business acumen. The
only changes that have been
brought about in the transition was
tersely stated few days ago by 4
visitor from another section. He
said in part: About the only
change [ notice in Allcndale Coun-
~ is Il complete change in the at
titude Of the people here in their
mode of lWing-a change which
Will accomplish u world of good
in their behalf. They have found

pose Of show, never have and nev-

Allendale County has come back
and so. too viii other counties OF
South Carolina come back when
they learn. as Allendale has learn
ed that cotton is not The only crop
Of which the people of this section
can make n living and more than

shall al look back on the period
Through which we are now pass
ing and marvel that We should ever
have been discouraged over having
to give up cotton ana the one-crop

sioner. and w. D. Humiston, assistant
general manager of the Potlatch Lum-
her company. and Dean F. G. Miller

at Boise of the committee appointed
! nv Governor D. w. Davis to frame
forestry bill. to be presented to the
llegislature at the 1923 session. Dean
miller presided at the meeting.
The Idaho Statesman, reporting
Mondavus session of the committee,
saws: The bill under consideration
will take into consideration the uses
To which the state forests are put, and
with this in view the committee will
endeavor to frame legislation that will
offer protection to the forests without
iniuring any industry which depends
on the forests for its wellbeing. The
southern part of the state is peculiarly
dependent on the forest watersheds
for irrigation. and the proposed bill
will endeavor to perpetuate these
Would Reduce Fires.
The lessening of fire hazards and
moro stringent measures to protect
state timber from fires will be incor
porated into the new law. Conserva-
ton of forest resources and perpetua
ton of continuous timber production
is the aim of the revised code which
will be presented to the legislature
this winter.
Governor-elect C. c. Moore has been
meeting with the committee. Sc far
in the meetings no opposition to
changes in the present law has been
said Dean Miller Monday
evening. The main difficulty before
the committee is the mass of details
which must be assimilated before the
law is whipped into shape, he said

MUST TRANSMIT
FINES WHEN COLLECTED.

Justices of the peace are required
to transmit Immediately fines collect
ed to the persons authorized to re-
ceive them and if they fail to do sc
may be prosecuted for embezzlement
as any other person. This is the
opinion written Monday by Roy L.
Black, attorney general, for Otto NJ.
Jones, state game warden.
The game warden complained to the
attorney general that in several in
stances justices of the peace in vari-
Gus parts of the state had refused. or
at least neglected, to transmit to the
game department fines collected for
infringement of the game laws He
also complained that justices of the
peace have taken it upon themselves
to extend the time for payment of a
fine without committing the guilty
person to jail in default of payment
Not only is the justice violating a
law by not transmitting the fines, the
general ruled, but he is liable
on his official bond for the amount of
the fines.-Idaho Statesman.
