RADIO TRUST CASE
RDEREDD|SM|SSED
Federal Trade Commission
Decision UphoIdS Legality
of CroSS-LiCenseS.
BY MARTIN CODEL

Five years of inquiry into the
organization and operation of the So
called Radio Trust" with the Radio
Corporation of America as its fountain
head, have resulted in sweeping de-
cision by the Federal Trade Commits
sion dismissing all charges of monopoly
and unfair competition in the manu-
facture and sale of radio devices and
in the field of radio communication.
The action of the commission
virtually upholds the legality of the
croSs-licensing arrangement, whereby
eight great companies have acquired
and pooled patents to make up the
largest producing, distributing and
operating aggregation in the radio m
dustry. Commissioners Abram F.
Myers. William E. Humphrey Garland
S. Ferguson and c. w. Hunt voted TO
dismiss. Commissioner Edgar A. Nc
Culloch alone voted against dismissal.
No formal comment was made in dis
missing the case, except for a state

in radio station to restrain commerce

telephone or other wire company.
The Radio Protective Association of
Chicago, group of independent set and
tube producers, is behind this complaint.
This organization has been the prime
mover against the alleged trust, and its
attorneys were responsible for the vic
tory over the r. c. A. in the recent
tube case With the Federal trade body
holding that there has been no violation
of the Federal Trade Commission act,
the Chicago group is a.se expected to
seek action by the Department Of
Justice on the basis Of the antitrust
laws. The Attorney General has con-
eistently refused to consider the trust
charges while the matter was before

Lila took courage on the barest

not told BERTHE Lou about last hight

"You hadn't any right to inter

I still loved him. I made no secret
of that. And anyone but a fool
would have guessed I'd have him

with a sheer. Rod was my man.

There was nothing to be feared

why was BERTHE Lou here, at this
