Arguments Over Steel Case Shine in Supreme Court
The United States Steel Corporation antitrust dissolution hearing continued in the Supreme Court with government attorney Colton describing the firm as an abnormal illegal overcapitalized mega combination controlling half the nation’s industry. Defense counsel Lindabury argued fair treatment of customers and employees, while Colton asserted the stock pool and mergers allowed price domination and suppression of competition. Hearings resume with final defense and government closings planned.
