TRADE BOARD STAFF
SCANS MOTOR DEAL
chrysIer- Dodge Merger Not
Up to U. S. Group Officially,
However.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press,
The star of the Federal Trade Com
mission has been investigating the deal
that resulted Monday In the merger Of
Dodge Bros. Inc, and the Chrysler
Corporation but the commission itself
so far has not considered an inquiry TO
determine whether the antitrust laws
had been violated.
II was made clear at the commission
Offices that the merger would be looked
into as matter of routine. but not
until majority OF the members re-
turned from vacations
Commissioner Myers expressed the
opinion that on the face of the deal
the commission could take no action
under the Clayton act, because it did
not have the right to diyest physical
assets under which the Dodge -Chrysler
merger apparently was consunmated.
The Department Of Justice generally
looks into all big consultations, but
unless q violation Of the law is shown,
their activity Is not public. There has
been no indication OF the departments
attitude toward the automobile merger.
