Antitrust Case

At St. Joseph

~ VT AsSVOsANo Etwess
ST. JOSEPH. Mo-, June "a
verdict of acquittal for all defend
ants was returned last night in Fed
eral District Court on Government
charges they had conspired to con-
troll the prices and distribution Of
hogs at the ST. Joseph. livestock
market in violation Of the Sherman
Anti-Tru Law.
The defendants in the case were:
Swift g. Co.. Armour g. Co., the St.
Joseph Joint Marketing Improve
ment Committee: the hogs yards
subcommittee Of the marketing
committee; George n. Damsel, jr.
general manager at st. Joseph for
Armour; Charles s. Lechler. head
hog buyer here for Armour; Walter
S. Parker. general manager here for
Swift. and Carl Meyer, head hog
buyer here for Swift.
Thurman Arnold, Assistant At
torney General, who in recent years
has conducted many prosecutions
under the Sherman Antitrust Act,
had assigned special assistant,
Daniel B. Britt, to the st. Joseph
case. A staff of attorneys had spent
weeks compiling evidence and the
st. Joseph heading was watched
closely as a test suit.
The Governments case hinged
around charges that Armour and
Swift. through agreement, made
identical purchases of hogs; that
they created an artificial top price
each day by setting aside choice
offerings which were purchased at
the markets close at a premium
price. The defendants also were ac-
cused OF maneuvering to maintain
Fridays prices on the Saturday
market.
Walter S. Parker. general manager
for Swift g. Co.. in St. Joseph ex-
pressed his pleasure at the verdict
Knowing the policy Of Swift &
Co., in conducting its business in
compliance with the antitrust as
well as other laws. and knowing
also that these policies have been
strictly adhered to in ST. Joseph, we
were confident OF acquittal." Parker
said.
TT is, of course, unfortunate that
in times like these when all
businessmen are occupied with
problems incidental to the war. that
valuable time and effort have to be
devoted to defense against un-
founded attacks upon business"

Hunt for Retreadinq

Auto and Tire Firms
Pool Resources in
Emergency Search

DETROIT, June 9.-There will
be an emergency" or interim" au-
tomobile tire, designed to keep most
Of Americas motorcars in operation
until the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
rubber substitute program bears
fruit, If the combined chronological
resources of the Nations automotive
and tire industries can produce it.
A spokesman for both industries,
which are represented on a COM
mittee Of the War Engineering
Board, emphasized, however, that
the solution to the present rubber
shortage was not Just around the
corner
The committee. headed by James
G. Zeder. chief engineer in charge
Of laboratories for Chrysler Corp,
has been exploring for more than a
month all possible sources Of relief
for the impending tire shortage.
zeder said the tire and automotive
companies have pooled all their in
formation from many years of ex-
Fermentation In rubber substitutes.
Asked whether thiokol. the sub
stitute upon which Dow Chemical
Co. has been working. was included
among the possibilities, zeder re-
Piled
"All materials are being consid-
cred"
The committees objective, he
said, Is to do something quickly"
to meet the essential transportation
needs.
Thus the present search is mainly
for retreading substance, designed
to rejuvenate tires now on the Ma
tion's vehicles. Zeder termed as
criminal" the use of tires already
worn to the cord. At that point,
he said. you are getting at the very
heart of what is left that could be
used"
In the search an almost endless
variety of substances has been con-
sidered, including linseed oil, as
phalt, pitch, oils, CLUES, casein, soy
beans and other materials. The
committee has even considered
wooden or cushion wheek-and
ruled them out as providing no
solution.

NEW YORK. June 9.-As produc-
ton of war goods increases in the
metal working industry, manufac-
turers are giving greater attention
to installation Of machinery which
does the required job in the largest
volume at the lowest cost, reports
Burnham Finney, editor Of Amer
lean Machinist.
The emphasis at the beginning
was tool up and get into production
quickly without regard to cost, it is
pointed out. The time element over
shadowed all other considerations.
Now that the program is progress
ing ahead of schedule in numerous
cases, 1t is entering upon the second
phase, where cost and efficiency fac
tors are of growing importance.
A third consideration looms, says
Mr.. Finney. As the war industries
turn out goods for the United Ma
tions in ever-increasing volumes,
more attention is being given to i'm
provements in the design of planes.
tanks and other military imple-
ments.
The armed forces want planes
with even more firepower and speed
and maneuverability and they want
tanks from which the weaknesses
disclosed in actual combat are elm
mated.

Retail Grocers Ask
Control Over Both
Costs and Prices
Declare Many Facing
Ruin Unless Relief
Comes Quickly
z, tht Associated Press.

CHICAGO, June 9.-The National
Retail Grocers Association called to-
day for a mandatory national price
policy" under which retail ceilings
would be accompanied by effective
controls over all major items of cost,
including wages and farm COM
modities.
Unless relief from conditions
caused by ceilings is speedily forth
coming, tens of thousands Of retail
grocers face bankruptcy within six
months" the organization declared
in a resolution adopted at its 45th
annual convention.
The resolution reported grocers
were contending with an estimated
overall average increase of 10 per
cent in replacement costs over those
on which the March price ceilings
we're established: the prospect OF at
least so per cent increase in taxes
over last year: scarcities of mer-
chandise, manpower and delivery
services, and added:
The cost of farm commodities
and labor costs represent approxi-
mately IS per cent of the total cost
of food to the consumer" and "are
subject to no effective controls but
on the contrary are everywhere ad-
vancing, thereby steadily reducing
the already slender operating mar
gin of the retailer and. already in
some instances, eliminating it en-
tirely."
The association also asked that
Nation wide gasoline rationing be
deferred until after some of1cial in
vestigation of "the utmost confu-
sion" existing in the public mind in
connection with the rubber supply
situation and the need for gasoline
rationing.
