7 Large Liquor Firms
And Subsidiaries Are
Named as Price Fixers

The Federal Trade Commission
yesterday charged two large liquor
companies with conspiring with
their subsidiaries to Ak prices and
hinder competition.
One FITS complaint was against
Distillers' Corp.-Seagrams, Ltd,
a Canadian firm, and 81 subsi-
diaries. The other complaint was
against Schenley Industries. Inc,
and eight subsidiaries.
Both companies denied the
charges. The FTC did not charge
conspiracy between the two
groups. It alleged the two con-
spiracies separately set up a dan
gerous tendency unduly to hinder
competition and to create a
monopoly in the sale of alcoholic
beverages"
Len Paulson. FTC attorney ham
ding the two cases. said the
charges projected the Government
into a new antitrust field. He
said the Government had never
before tried to prove that ar
rangementS made between a par
ent company and its wholly owned
subsidiary companies was q con-
spiracy.
Cite High Court Ruling.
Mr.. PaulSon said the FTC
stepped into the new territory on
the basis Of a Supreme Court de-
cision Of January. 1851. He said
the court at that time upheld an
Indiana drug firm which COM
planned that Joseph E. Seagram g.
Sons and Calvert Distilling Co.
conspired to set sale prices. Both
companies were listed in yester-
days FTC complaint as Seagram's
subsidiaries.
The companies told the court
they were "instrumentalities of a
single manufacturing -merchandiz-
ing unit" and therefore could not
be charged with conspiracy.
Justice Black. handing down a
unanimous decision. said common
ownership is no defense against
conspiracy charges.
The two liquor groups, FTC said,
acted separately to "centralize
control Of all the corporations of
the two respective CLOUDS in the
hands Of the two parent corpora
tons. :"
New Complaints Denied.
Frank r. Schengel, president of
Joseph E. Seagram g. Sons. Inc,
said the FTC complaint was "en-
tirely without foundation and
fact. and we deny categorically
each and every allegation"
Milton B. Seasonwein. resident
attorney for Schenley. said:
"Schenley is not charged with
conspiring with any other dis
tiller.
I'm its answer Schenley will
deny completely the accusation
that it has attempted to monop-
Ollie or restrain trade or has
engaged in illegal price fixing or
any other illegal practice"

delegates personal preferences
showed Tar Heels leaning toward
Senator Taft. The poll gave Sem

and seven uncommitted or not
expressing a preference.
But Representative Reece, Re-
publican, of Tennessee, Southern
manager for the Taft forces,
claimed 18 delegates had pledged
their votes to the Ohio Senator.
And Gen. Eisenhower's North
Carolina manager, Sim A. De-
Lapp, listed 10 delegates for Gen.
Eisenhower. 10 for Senator Taft
and six uncommitted.
Organization of the North Caro-
lima delegation was completed by
the selection Of four at-large
delegates to the national con-
vention. The delegation, as a
body, will go to Chicago in July

Two Pledged for Taft.
Two definite pledges of the four
At-large delegates named here
yesterday went to Senator Taft.
One of the four is pledged to Gen.
Eisenhower and one told reporters
she was not committed.
Taft forces received a setback
when Eisenhower Supporter Hor-
bert F. Seawall, jr., defeated Clyde
r. Greene as the party nominee
for Governor. Mr.. Greene, a Taft
hacker. later was elected one of
the delegates at large. Other
delegates-at-large are j. E. Broy-
Hill. Taft leaner, and j. M. Bailey,
an Eisenhower follower.

for-President headquarters in1
Washington claimed that Taft
supporters had used "seldge- ham
mer tactics" on Mrs. w. P. Few,
who was elected national COM
mitteewoman. She told reporters
she had not pledged her vote.

gerated."

men. They nominated me and

until later in the campaign and
I am maintaining that position.
