Washington reports Attorney General Palmer told the Senate agricultural committee the settlement with the Chicago big five meat packers achieved more than a court decision could have. He said no further civil or criminal proceedings are contemplated and the packers are not given preferential treatment. Palmer noted no immediate price drop expected and discussed potential gains from smaller competitive units. He recounted that Armor & Co executive Robert Dunham opened settlement talks after learning of government intents.

What Surrender of Big Five Brought
The settlement forced the packers to accept a court decree barring monopolistic and unlawful trade practices, and prohibiting control of stockyards and related terminal railroads. They were allowed to sell cheese and eggs. The government did not demand relinquishing wholesale cheese and egg distribution, believing economic advantages remained in the current handling system. Committee sessions will continue, said Chairman Gronna.
