Supreme Court Plans
Recess Of Six Weeks
After Decision Day
By Robert k. Walsh

A bench recess of six weeks, the
longest in many years, will begin,
for the Supreme Court after next
Mondays decision day.
The January 15-February 26
recess was announced after a brief
session at which the tribunal yes
terday handed down one written
opinion.
The court has not yet ruled or
several major cases involvine
Communist Party leaders, the
Federal loyalty program and the
Attorney Generals list of sub
versive" organizations. But it i;
further along than usual in dis
posing of review motions ano
hearing oral arguments.
Yesterdays written opinion
was an important pronouncement
that the antitrust laws allow a
company to meet competition
under certain circumstances b.
making price cuts in good faith
The court split to 3 on whether
an oil company could set lower
prices for one group of its GUS
toners to meet a competitor
price.
The decision reversed findings
by the Federal Trade Commission
and the United States Court of
Appeals in Chicago that the
Standard Oil Co. of Indiana vio-
lated the antitrust statutes by
selling gasoline to four Detroit
Jobbers at prices below those
charged to retail service stations.
A District case that has been in
the courts for nearly three years
apparently came to the end of the
legal road when the Supreme
Court yesterday refused to review
findings by the Court of Appeals
and Board of Tax Appeals against
the Riggs Development Co. and
the Colonial Mortgage Corp.
Those companies, with Offices at
6l7 Ninth street NV, contended
they were not obliged to pay a
total of $4,000 in District taxes
on income from sale of 156 row
houses they built in 1943 and
sold in 1916. The tax board, later
upheld by the appeals court,
ruled that the properties could not
be, classified as capital assets, as
the company contended. They
were held primarily for sale in
the ordinary course of business,
and receipts from their sale,
therefore. were subject to the Dis
trict income tax on corporations,
the appeals court ruled.
The companies said they had
put up the houses in Dexter
Heights Sc, and at New Hamp-
shire avenue and Peabody street
NV, for investment and rental
purposes. They sold the dwellings,,
they explained, because of a
change in the CT Bill of Rights,
which created an unprecedented
demand for housing for vet
erans."
