A & p Brands Anti
Trust Charges False

The second in a series of cases
in which false" charges were
made by antitrust lawyers against
The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea
Company is cited in advertisements
being published in $500 newspa-
pers this week.
Under the caption, "Here Is An
other Time Antitrust Lawyers
Were Wrong!" A. & P. tells about
suit filed against it's prOduee-buy-
ing affiliate in Wilson, N. c. After
the charges were heard, the jury
was instructed to return a verdict
of mot guilty" Federal Judge C..
C. Wyche told the government at
torneys that you can't make a case
without facts"
"In this case," the ad states,
'the antitrust lawyers gave
story to the newspapers, telling
millions of farmers that we were
the kind of people who would force
their prices down, deprive them of
decent income, and lower their
families living standard"
The company points cut that not
only were the charges false, but
were made despite the fact that
it had always been A. & P.'s policy
to pay our farm suppliers fair mar
ket prices for all produce; to aid
agriculture through better distri-
button of it's products; to narrow
the price spread between farm and
retail prices; and to help farmers
build better markets for their pro-
ducts"
The ad also states that a potato
expert of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture. who was called as a
government witness, testified that
contrary to the allegations. A. &
P.'s subsidiary had made every
effort to help the Department Of
Agriculture aid the potato farmer
in better marketing and in gettinl
a better price for his products.
Judge Wyche, in dismissing tn
case. said 81 might say that new
er tried a case in my life where 1
greater effort, more work, NOR,
investigation had been done, comb
ing almost with a fine-toOth cOml
