= Judge Minton is q Protestant
but his wife is a Catholic.
There has been no Catholic on
the Supreme Court since Justice
Frank Murphy died in July.
There had been speculation that
the President might choose an
other Catholic until he named
former Attorney General Clark
q Protestant, to succeed Justice
Murphy.
Fought for Court Bill.
As a Senator, Judge Minton
was an embattled New Dealer"
and a vigorous fighter for the
Roosevelt administrations meas
ures. He fought hard for Presi-
dent Roosevelt's plan to add new
justices to the Supreme Court
to the number of those over age
70 who did not retire.
AS the age of the justices then
stood, the plan would have en-
larged the court from 8 to Is
members.
The court of that time had
declared unconstitutional major
legislation which the President
backed as essential to the country.
Critics of the Presidents plan
to enlarge the court called it the
"court-packing bill"
The fight over it split the DEM
ocrats in Congress Fand was one
of the bitterest of the long Roose-
velt administration. The measure
did not go through, but out of the
battle came a retirement plan at
full pay for justices aged 10, with
10 years service, who voluntarily
elect to retire.
Named to Senate in 1884.
Judge Minton's rise in Indiana
politics was coincident with the
governorship of Paul v. McNutt,
who later became Federal security
commissioner, war nanpower
commissioner, high commissioner
and then Ambassador to the

Trade Bill Without
Peril Point Today
Final Action Is Near on
Two-Yeur Extension of
Reciprocal Agreements
By J. A. O'LeoY

Senate passage before nightfall
of a two-year extension of the
reciprocal trade bill. without the
Republican peril point" clause
appeared likely as the closing
hours of the debate began.
A last-minute check-up by in
formal sources indicated the Re
publicans may not poll more than
81 or 38 votes for the amendment
which would enable the Federal
Tariff Commission to fix peril
point" below which American i'm
port rates should not be reduced.
Under the amendment, the
President could 60 below those
points, but if he did so he would
have to explain his reasons for
overruling the Tariff Commission.
The Democrats. who had fewer
Senators absent than the Repub-
licans this morning, may muster
A votes against the peril point"
restriction. This would be a mar
gin of six over the probably Re-
publican lineup, but Senator
George, Democrat, of Georgia,
made a more conservative estimate
of victory by 3-to-5 votes.
The vote on the peril point
amendment is set for 4 pm.
George Leading Fight.
The peril point" clause was
put into the trade agreement law
by the Republicans last year, when
they controlled Congress. It died,
however, when the Trade Agree

1t appeared obvious that the IS

To oSp|itA A. & P.
Grocery Chain
New York Civil Action
Is FoIIow-Up to 1916
Antitrust Conviction
BY the Associoted Press

Attorney General J. Howard
McGrath today filed suit to break
up the Great Atlantic g. Pacific
Tea Co.'S Nation wide food chain.
The civil action was brought in
Federal District Court at New
York this morning.
1t is a follow-up to a criminal
conviction of the A. & P. Co.
under the antitrust statutes at
Danville, Ill, three years ago.
The conviction was affirmed in
the Circuit Court of Appeals at
Chicago early this year and the
company paid fines totaling $175,-
900.
Would Divide Operations.
The action in New York requests
court order requiring A. & P.
to separate its manufacturing and
processing business from its buy
ing and selling business and to
separate its present seven retail
store divisions into seven inde-
pendently owned retail food
chains.
The Justice Department pro-
poses to dissolve the Atlantic
Commission Co., A. & P's whole
sale purchasing and sales agent
in the produce markets.
Under the proposed breakup Of
the present national chain into
seven independent companies, A.
& P. itself would not be permitted
to own more than one such divi-
sion, probably covering about 800
stores, in contrast to the 5000
retail outlets it now operates.
To Be Determined by Court.
The Department pointed out.
however, that the final form of tho
proposed dissolution would be a
matter for the court to determine.
Mr.. McGrath described the A.
& P. system as "the largest enter
prise in the food industry in the
United States, with annual retail
sales amounting to about $780,.
100000 or about 6.4 per cent Of
the national total of retail food
store sales.
THE. suit" the Attorney Gen.
eral said in statement, "is
designed to eliminate the abuse
by A. & P. of its mass buying and
mass selling power"
The complaint alleges that the
big chain has used its power and
position to impose unreasonable
restraints of trade on competitors
at all levels of the food industry
from farm to table"
Official Assails Action.
It asserts this was done by OBJ
tanning discriminatory price pref.
erences over retail competitors "by
exercising a dual threat perma-
nently to withhold its patronage
(from suppliers) or to manufac-
ture for ITSELF"
In New York, an A. & P. official
branded the suit as "a threat to
the welfare and living standards
of every American citizen"
Entering general denial of the
Government charges. a spokes-
man for the big food chain said
THE whole basis of this attack is
the fact that we sold good food
too cheap"
This is not just an effort to

On Minority
Segregation

(Reprint from Arizona Republic.)
America is in no position to
boast of democracy so long as it
permits segregation of racial mi
norities, the Rev. George H. Dunno,
S. j., declared here Wednesday
night.
Noting that segregation is form
of hypocriscy that strikes at the in
tegrity of the American people,
Father Dunno said it is impossible
to build a society on the basis of a
fundamental contradiction, "as we
have been trying to do ever since
1776."
Addressing a joint meeting Of the
Arizona Council for Civic Unity and
the groups Greater Phoenix chap
ter, Father Dunno scored believers
in a "policy of gradualism" in con-
nection with segregation.
1--WE don't dare to adopt this pol
icy," he declared. "We must fight
for our principles, Diplomacy has
no place in the battle for human
rights.
Father Dunno, a recent arrival
from Los Angeles, is assigned to
the st. Francis Xavier parish. He is
widely known for his work as
magazine and play writer. His play,
Trial BY Fire, based on Los An
geles racial incident, is playing in
several major cities.
Joseph Smeltser, president of the
Phoenix group, presided at the
meeting in the Civic Center House,

ization's phase of the program.
