Milk dealers not exempted in Sherman Act ruling
The Supreme Court ruled Chicago milk dealers are not exempt from the Sherman Antitrust Act despite the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act and Capper Volstead Act. The decision focused on whether such marketing agreements could shield prosecutions for price fixing between 1935 and 1938. The ruling also upheld the Labor Board’s action under the Wagner Act and confirmed ICC authority to aid workers in a railroad reorganization.
