Seven Justices Hear U S Steel Case With Two Justices Absent
The Supreme Court began hearing the Federal dissolution suit against United States Steel and its subsidiaries with seven justices, as Brandeis and McReynolds retired. Assistant Attorney General Todd called the firm a colossal super combination dominating half of U S iron and steel output and argued it exploited the public. Defense counsel Lindebury contested that the Sherman law targets monopolies, not size, citing the Gary dinners as context. The hearing proceeds through next Wednesday.
