CANNERIES PLEA REFUSED
Not to Intervene in Packing
Case.

Justice Bailey of the District Su-
preme Court today refused the plea
Of the California Cooperative Can
neries to intervene in the govern
ment's case against the big five"
packing concerns. The California
company sought to set aside the con-
sent decree of February 81, 1920. by
which the packers agreed to divorce
their companies from corporation
dealing in unallied commodities.
Justice Bailey points ont that none
Of the parties to the suit is asking
to vacate the decree. Under it. he
says, several of the defendants have
disposed of large interests in such
concerns at considerable loss. If the
decree were set aside 1t would be i'm
possible to restore the status quo,
the court stated.
The consent decree between parties
compromising their differences, de-
clared Justice Bailey. is as fully
binding as a decree rendered after a
full hearing on the facts.
That the agreement is reached
prior to filing suit does not render
the decree less effective, the court
finds. when no deception is practiced
on the courts.
II the decree was entered into by
Armour & Co. to prevent the latter
from fulfilling legal obligations which
it owed to the canneries an action
at law would AFFORD the proper relief,
the court suggested.
