Mr. Cantrill was chosen in the primary, August 4, as the standard bearer of his party at the next November election over Alben W, Barkley of Paducah, representative from the first congressional district.

BUSNES OVBIE QUSTEDBY COURT Members of St. Louis Lum- ber Trade Exchange Pay : Fines Totaling $96,000. ! By the Associated Press H JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, September | 3.—Missouri has scored a complete | victory over the new form of business | i fons known as ‘*‘open price as- | sociaitons,” in a suit brought by At- | torney General Jesse W. Barrett against the St. Louis Lumber Trade xchange. The Missouri supreme court ousted each of the nineteen St.| Louls fumber companies composing | the exchange, a: sed fines totaling | $96.000 and ousted the e¥change itself. | court sustained the attorney general in holding that the combina- tion violated the state anti-trust laws | even though it did not directly fix | prices. So far as it is known, it is the first decision of any state’ court on the points involved and follows closely the decision of the United | States Supreme Court last year in the hardwood lumber cases, according to Attorney General Barrett. 1 Sought New Methods. After the anti-trust decisions of federal and state courts some fifteen years ago, holding that it was illegal for competitors to come together and jagree upon prices, lawyers over the {country began searching for a method i which would keep within the law and yet advance the interests of their clients, the attorney general said. A plan was found which has been “the open price as- | sociation plan,” according to Mr. Bar- | rett, whereby competing companies formed a central association with a manager and secretary and reported to it all prices on sales by members. The assoclation regulated the ter of credit and the general busin pract of its members. and pro- vided for co-operation that went far but stopped short of the actual nx- ing of prices. Books were written describing the plan as “the new competition,” and it was believed, the attorney general said. that the method would be proof against pros- ecution by the state or federal au- thorities. Explains Net Effect of Plan. Attorney General Barrett main- | taihed that the net effect of the plan | was to lessen the full and free com- petition which the Missouri laws re- quire and to impose upon the public much higher prices. The court in a sweeping decision declared that the Missouri statutes forbid not only agreements to lessen competition, but agreements which tend to lessen it. The decision said that the very crea- generally called { well, such as higher freight rates and | | the lumber exchange in most positive terms. —_— An TItalian is creating a sensation in Rome by treatinz a donkey as a boon companion.
