Department of Justice to Accept Reorganization Plans to End Monopolies
As petitions were filed officials signaled willingness to comply with the law and submit proposed reorganizations and decrees. Negotiations are complete and at the next term defendants will agree to judgments that grant the government all relief it could seek. If other combines take similar actions and submit good faith reorganization plans to end monopolistic practices and restraining agreements, the Justice Department would consider them and present court petitions to bind terms and curb further monopolistic activity. The responsibility to craft these plans rests with those affected, not with officials.
