ARGUMENTS HEARD BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT ‘Washington, Oct. 7.—In accordance with the government's announced in- tention of resuming the prosecution of the anti-trust cases pending in the supreme court, now that the war has ended, arguments were heard today in appeals brought in suits instituted by the sovernment under the Sherman act against the alleged anthracite coal | trust and the United States Steel cor- poration. The hearing of the coal cases | was concluded, but owing to additional time being granted both sides for ar- sument, the sicel cases will not be fin- ished until Friday. Before argument sin these two cases were begun. the court at the request of Solicitor General King consented to postpone temporarily the hearing of arguments in government suits against the Eastman Kodak company and the Assoclated Bill Posters’ and Distribu- tors union. These are expected to be herad possibly late this fall. Except for the order of the federal district_court calling for the severance of the Central Railroad of New Jersey from Reading interests. the govern- lost both its cases in the lower ment court azainst the Reading Holding corporation. the Lehigh Valley Rall- road company and the United States corporation and their subsi- diaries. All the cases have been ar- zued hefore in the supreme court So the Lehigh case was submitted to the court today on the printed briefs pre- viously filed by both sides. The other arguments were virtually repetitions of those already presented. In_asking for the dissolution of the Reading company, Solicitor General King argued thaf the evidence showed that organization with its subsidiarics was controlled by interlocking direc- torates and had & monopoly in anthra- cite coal. These contentions were de- nied by Jackson S. Reynolds and Rob- ert W. De Forest, both of New York, representing the 'Reading company, who also asseried that the separation of the Central Railroad of New Jersey from Reading interests was not to the public interest. The railroad, they erted, was not competitive with the railroad but instead comple- ‘.(m]inf‘ Mr. Reynolds declared the Reading could not compete with coal companies operating in the Wyoming Valley sec- on of the anthracite rezion because it costs less L, operate there and said < a result the Reading’s business had reduced—a clear indication of ibsence of a mongoly.

At Gary, Tnd., where Major General Leonard Wood, commanding 1,600 fed- ers has established “military control.” government agents seized a quantity of radical literature in several raids and a number of persons were brought before the military authorities and questioned.

Caused Early ‘Washingion, Oct.. 7.—After perfect- ing an organization today, the Indus- trial Conference . called by President Wilsor, got tangled up in its own rules and adjourned until tomorrow. Secretary Lane was elected perma- In his speech of ac-| ceptance, he stirred the delegates, rep- resenting capital, labor and the public to great enthusiasm by declaring that the high purpose of the gatheriig made failure impossible in the effort to harmonize industrial selations in this tountry. Proceeding to the adoption of rules, the conference struck its first snag in a protest by John Spargo, of New Yorw, a scpresentative of ‘the public, that the report \ the rules commit- tee made no provision for minority expression and was a _“travesty” on dree deliberation, H: criticism caused early adjournment of the morning session to permit amend- ments to be formulated by the re- speciive groups, but on reconvening the rules were amended without ma- tefarl change. They provide for puk- lie sessions and unanimous vote by groups on all conciusions and de:i- sions, ad require the asset of a group before any member of it can intro- duce a resolution. A committee of fifteen was named to recommend for or against all res- olutions introduced as follows Representing the public: Thomas L. Chadbourne A A. Landon, H. B.
