How two Washington women
slid down ropes to escape the
Stalheim Hotel fire in Norway
was told today in a letter re-
ceiyed from one OF them.
Miss Callie Hull OF 2230 Cali
fornia street NV. a retired
National Academy of Sciences
librarian. wrote her niece, Mrs
Jasper Dorsey Of lit Primrose
street. Chevy Chase. she was
thankful to be alive"
The fire in the famous old
hostelry last Tuesday killed at
least "a persons. Miss Hull and
her travelling companion. Miss
Sara Steele of 1921 California
street NV, narrowly missed a
like fate.
Miss Hull said they owed
their life in part to the fact
they had opened a window
upon retiring. Catches on the
windows were hard to open, she
said.
When the fire broke out, an

Judge HoltZoff denied the JUS
tice Departments contention
that the coop has been violat-
ing antitrust laws in this area
since about 1880. The Judge
cited a statute exempting agri-
cultural co operatives from
antitrust actions so long as
they do not conspire with per-
sons who are not producers Of
agricultural commodities.
The Justice Department
asked the Supreme Court to
overrule Judge Holtzoff on the
antitrust question, contending
that agricultural co-operatives
do not have blanket imniu-
nifty" from prosecution under
anti-monopoly laws.

The Supreme Court yester-
day agreed to review a District
Court order requiring the
Maryland-Virginia dairy farm
ers cooperative to dispose of
Embassy Dairy.
Appeals were made by both
the Government, which charged
the Maryland-Virginia Milk
Producers Association with vio-
lation Of antitrust laws, and
the coop. which claimed i'm
munity from prosecution. The
order was issued last year by
District Court Judge Alexander
Holtzoff.
In it. Judge Holtzoff granted
the Justice Departments re-
quest that the farmers coop
be forced to get rid of Embassy
Dairy. which it purchased in
1854 for s3.850,00o. He held
that the co-op's purchase
tended to lessen competition
substantially and to create a
monopoly for its members.
The Government contended,
in the civil antitrust action,
that the Embassy purchase
eliminated the dairy as an out
let for farmers who are not
members of the Maryland
Virginia group. The coop now
controls about 80 per cent Of
raw milk production in the
Washington milkShed.

II am pleased that I have
