McLaren offers plan to curb antimonopoly calls
Assistant Attorney General Richard McLaren seeks to head off new antitrust legislation by focusing court challenges on specific merger threats. He rejects anti conglomerate bias, pressing cases aimed at maintaining competition rather than judging by size or structure. The effort follows fears the merger boom could reshape the economy, with lawmakers eyeing measures akin to the old Public Utilities Holding Company act. He argues action should come from solid legal principles, not broad restrictions on mergers. The discussion notes a historic reassessment of how conglomerates affect competition and outlines criteria for potential court actions to deter anticompetitive consolidation.
