I.H.C. COMPLIES
WITH DECREE
Agreement Reached Today
Will Restore Competitive
Market Conditions

Washington, June 7.--tPD-The In
ternational Harvester company today
complied with the consent decree ar
ranged to restore competitive market
conditions in its field.
The question whether the company
was monopolizing the harvesting ma
chinery business had been bone Of
contention between the government
years.
In 1912 the government asked the
federal district court for Minnesota
to dissolve the company, which was
organized through the. purchase Of
five harvesting ",achincry concerns.
After protracted litigation, inclid-
ing several oral arguments in the su-
premc court, the company in 1915
consented to a decree which required
it to restore competitive conditions
within eighteen months after the end
Of the world war. The government
had contended for dissolution. of
the company into three independent
corporations. with wholly separate
owners, stockholders and managers
Appeal to High Court
In July. 1923, the government
again went into the federal district
court for Minnesota, asserting tina.
the company had failed to comply
with the decree. The company in
sisted that it had complied, and the
court decided against the govern
ment, which appealed to the Supreme
Court.
II was argued that while the com
pany had disposed of some Of its
properties it had retained the two
larger concerns which originally hac
been competitors, and was able t.
dictate PRICES. The company, how
ever, declared that the order Of tho
court which restricted it to one agent
in a town had completely opened the
field to competitors who now haC
competent avenues for reaching the
trades.
The International Harvester Com.
pany was organized under the leader
ship Of j. P. Morgan & Company
through the merging Of five harvest
ing machinery companies. The con
trovcrsy presented rs ono Of it:
phases whether bigness of itself con

pany asserted its size raised no OBJ

fly thence to Rome, Paris and Lon
don, and even that Chamberlin has
expressed determination to fly to
America from London.
Both men agreed that their voyage
was not as monotonous as they ex-
pected. They were on the qui vive
almost constantly in their efforts tc
avoid storms. Levine remarked that
they were not particularly sleepy
during the flight, as they took turns
at resting. He told Of sighting the
cruiser Memphis taking Colonel Lind
berh home to the United States and
said that when he suggested they
swoop down and have look ut the
New York-Paris flyer. Chamberl;r
merely remarked: 81 want to 20 on
II did not undertake the trans-At-
lantic flight for financial or other
considerations and have not received
any money for it," Chambcrlin said
today. He added that the designer
of the plane, Giuseppe Bellanca, had
requested him to fly to Berlin.
The flyers expect to remain in the
German capital at least until the end
Of the week. They may visit Paris,
incognito if possible, and hope to be
able to accept the invitation to Lon
don extended by Sir Alan Gotham,
noted British flyer.
I'VE certainly plan to see London

State in Midst of Most Pros.
porous Era in History, Bar.
ton Banker Says

Minneapolis, Nov. 3.-tF-Nortt
Dakota is in the midst of the most
prosperous era in its history, with
land values on the uptrend, w. A
Lilyquist Of Barton, Pierce county
banker, declared late yesterday at
the grain rate hearing being con-
Quoted here before q member Of the
interstate commerce commission.
Two Pierce county farms, of which
Mr.. Lilyquist is half owner, produced
a net revenue from grain alone dur.
ing the past season Of about Sl4,22O,
he said. Each farm contains 42O
acres, farmed on the half crop basis
by tenants.
"The tenant on one of our farms
made enough money during the past
few years to buy farm Of his own
this fall for cash." Mr.. Lilyquist
said.
Never Had Land Boom
Cross examined by II. A. Bron-
son, Grand Forks, N. d. attorney,
Mr.. Lilyquist denied that North Da-
kota had land boom during 1919
and 1920 that collapsed in 1921 and
1922.
North Dakota never had land
boom," Mr.. Lilyquist declared. "De-
velopment during 1919 and 1920 was
strengthened by high prices for farm
products, but even these two high
price years did not give us the pros
perity that most Of North Dakota
enjoys today.
"The state is better off than in
pre-war days. We suffered setbacks
during the past few years, but we
have overcome them. Land sales
are frequent, but they are voluntary
sales. In most instances in Pierce
county the land is being sold to
renters who have made the money
from farming operations to make
the purchases"
Under cross examination, Mr.
Lilyquist denied that 1915 and 1921
were the most prosperous years in
North Dakota.
Farm Debts Being Paid
w. A. Clemens, Fargo, N. y.
banker, declared that farm debts had
been largely liquidated this fall, and
that all Of the Fargo territory was
in "good financial condition"
The hearing will adjourn Friday
to reconvene at Chicago November
90. Several North Dakota farmers
were expected to testify as to con-
ditions in that state late today and
! tomorrow. No other witnesses will
be heard in Minneapolis.
H. A. Feltus, traffic manager of
the Van Dusen-Harrington company,
on the stand today, declared that a
lower grain transit rate would bene-
fit Minneapolis grain firms, and,
through them, every grain producer
in the northwest dealing with line
elevators owned or operated by the
Minneapolis companies.
