Antitrust Bill Passes House Amid Union Labor Amendment
In Washington on June 2 the Littlefield antitrust bill passed the House with only one opposing vote by Rep Mann of Illinois. Democrats forced adoption of an amendment excluding trades unions from the act while Republicans largely supported it. The measure widens the Sherman act to make contracts in restraint of trade illegal and allows treble damages. The bill now goes to the Senate.
