The two companies, former subsidi- aries of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey, were separated when the parent company was dissolved under a decree issued here in 1909 and approved by the | Supreme Court in 1911. This decree forbade the subsidifries of .the old Standard of New Jersey to reccmbine in any manner which might have the effect of restoring the com- | bination held to be illegal Five judges of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, sitting in Omaha_next week, are to consider the briefs filed today and testimony taken OUIS, September 30.—Briefs | < G _STAR, WASHINGTON, in New York in July. The Government’s brief maintains that the proposed merger would violate the decree, inasmuch as the two com- m are now competitorsyand m.y e competitors on & larger The court h.d intended to modl!y the decree in the future, the Government's counsel argues, it would have specifical- 1y reserved the power to do so. The ofl companies’ brief contends that the merger should not be stopped because it violates the letter of the 1909 decree, but only in case it is found that it would create a monopoly. ‘Testimony as to the present distribution of the trade, with the Royal Dutch Shell Co. potential competitor of the Standard | group, is cited as showing that there is no danger of a monopoly.
