IRUSTTO DISSOLVE Telephone & Telegraph Company Bows to Anti-Trust Law. American Disposes of All Western Union Stock— Long Distance Service Given to Rivals. Washington, D. C.—Attorney Gen­ eral McReynolds made public Saturday details of an agreement for reorgan­ ization o f the American Telephone & Telegraph company, the ‘ ‘ telephone trust,’ ’ which will prevent litigation to dissolve that corporation under the anti-trust act and under which compe­ titive conditions would be restored in the telephone service o f the entire country and the combine will dispose of its holdings in the Western Union Telegraph company. The reorganization plan originated with the company, although it fol­ lowed many reports that a suit against it might be filed. It was regarded by department of justice officials as the most striking indication offered in a decade that “ big business” has come to the conclusion that it is better to follow the Sherman law than fight it. The plan met not only the approval of the attorney general and his chief “ trust buster,” G. C. Todd, and offi­ cials of the subsidiaries o f the com­ bine, but was heartily approved by President Wilson. In a letter to Mr. McReynolds the President expressed his admiration for the attitude of the telephone company and his conviction that such conduct on the part of busi­ ness men meant a building up of busi­ ness on sound and permanent lines. Coming on the heels of the an­ nouncement that Postmaster General Burleson is interested in government ownership o f telephone lines, the ac­ tion of the department o f justice took an added significance and some offi­ cials went so far as to express the opinion that it indicated legislation to acquire the country’s telephone busi­ ness woult^ not be pressed by the ad­ ministration at the present session.
