STEEL MAKERS
COMPLAINED OF
BY COMMISSION
Bethlehem and Lackawanna
Companies Charged With
Using Unfair Practices
(By The Associated Prcssl

WASHINGTON, u. G., June 5. - The
Federal Trade Commission has issued
formal complaint against the Bethlc-
hem corporation and the Lackawanna
company charging that they have been
and are using unfair methods of com
petition.
The complaint grows out Of merger
recently. The commission said it had
reason to believe that the proposed Beth
iehcm and Lackawanna merger when
consummated will constitute an unfair
method of competition in that it contains
a dangerous tendency unduly to hinder
competition and restrain commerce and
that the proceeding by the commission
IN this respect is in the public interest.
The commission made the announce
ment today in "A report 10 the senate in
response TO the recently approved reso-
luton by Lafollctte Of Wisconsin direct
ing an inquiry into the merger by the
commission and the Department OF
