The considerable shift TO indus

for, according to bond house gossip,
by continued nervousness toward

that the rails have gone a long way

Rails Are Unpopular
There also has been a detection

of the carrier bonds. While general
desertion is not being staged, the

Stepping Ont of Bounds
Cracks Down on Several

by CNifCd Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. l8.-The
Federal Trade Commission, the
governments business policeman,
has been cracking down" on some
of the nations largest concerns
since NRA was outlawed, a survey
showed today. Latest concerns to be
cited were the California Packing
Corp, said to be the worlds largest
packer, and three subsidiaries.
The complaint alleged an attempt
to restrain competition in inter
state, coastwise and foreign trade as
we'll as to create a monopoly in San
Francisco Bay shipping terminal
business.
Since the Supreme Court held
NRA invalid the Federal Trade
Commission, headed by Ewin L.
Davis, has issued complaints against
the following major organizations:
Other Organizations Cited
National Electrical Manufacturers
Association, which includes Ana
conda Wire and Gable Co., General
Electric Co. and United States Rub

unlawful combination and conspi-
racy to restrain competition.

manufacturers and distributors,
including National Dairy Products

Attracts Special Interest
Special interest is attached to the
commissions activities because Sec
rotary Of Commerce Daniel C. Roper
has said that expansion of the COM
missions powers was one of the
methods under consideration for a
rebuilt NRA.
Among the food products packed
and shipped by the California Pack
ing Corp. are those under the trade
names of Del Monte" "Sunkist. T"
"Goldbar," GLASS JAR" president"
and Luxury"
The corporation, the complaint
charged, attempted to obtain busi-
ness for its subsidiary, Encinal Ter
minals, by promising to buy mate
rails such as wood, paper, contain
ers, tin, steel and copper from large
industrial concerns if they in re-
turn would divert their shipping
business to the corpartions termi-
