Activity Against Business Mergers
Suggested in High Court Decision
Washington -fllPIt- Sharply
increased Justice Department
activity against business mer
gers was suggested today by a
resounding government vic
tory In the Supreme Court in
a shoe industry case.
The ruling was part of a
voluminous outpour ing of
opinions and various other
actions which brought the
high court's 1961-62 term to
a close Monday.
The court acted on lunch
counter sit-ins, sale and mail
ing of obscene material, con
gressional contempt, narcotics
addiction and school segrega
tion. It also handed down one of
the most far-r e a c h i n g reli
gious freedom decisions in re
cent times by outlawing use
of an official state prayer in
New York public schools.
The justices now disperse
for the summer. Barring a
special emergency term, ihey
will not return to the bench
until Oct. 1.
Besides the shoe industry
Tax Collections
Tolal 85.4 Per Cent
For Current Year
The Jackson county sher
iff's tax office has collected
84.5 per cent of the taxes
due for the current year, ac
cording to County Treasurer
Karl Janouch.
This percentage represents
three quarters, Janouch said,
since the fourth quarater col
lections are due on Aug. 15.
These figures are based on
the overall amount levied for
all districts such as school,
water, fire, irrigation and
various cities.
The amount due from all
levies is $7,577,059.97. The
amount paid during the three
quarters is $6,468,435.79.
From 1956 through 1961,
the tax collections have never
run below 93.6 per cent of
the amount needed for the
over-all levies, Janouch's fig
ures show.
In 1956 the amount col
lected was 107.7 per cent of
the total levies in Jackson
county.
There are four dates pay
ments are due, the county
treasurer explained. Most of
it is collected in the first
quarter collection date which
is Nov. 15. The other collec
tion dates are Feb. 15, April
15, and Aug. 15.
During the last six years
the amount of the total levy
not collected is less than 7
per cent, Janouch continued.
Since ccunty operations are
financed by O and C and na
tional forest timber receipts
almost entirely, a tax levy for
the county has not been need
ed. Tax collections have al
most met the total amount
due from levies to run the
cities and special districts,
the treasurer explained.
Budget estimates from the
special districts and cities are
always more than what is
actually needed since they
have to be made a year ahead,
so the resulting levy would
be higher than the absolute
needs, the county treasurer
concluded.
decision, the government also
won an anti-trust ruling that
officials acting for corpora
tions are subject to the stiff
penalties of the Sherman anti
trust law as well as the less
severe Clayton anti-monopoly
law. The Supreme Court re
instated several Sherman act
charges against corporation
officers which were dismissed
by lower courts.
Chief Justice Earl Warren
wrote 51 pages in the shoe
case, analyzing for the first
time 1950 amendments to the
Clayton act designed to plug
loopholes in the 1914 statute
and bring it up to date.
Warren declared it was the
intent of Congress to curb
"tendencies toward concen
tration in industry" in their
beginnings, "par ticu
larly when those tendencies
are being accelerated through
giant steps striding across a
hundred cities at a time."
The opinion said the court
agreed with the government
that so far as the shoe indus
try was concerned "this is an
appropriate place at which to
call a halt."
The judgment means di
vorcement of th? Brown Shoe
Co. of St. Louis and the G. R.
Kinney Co., the nation's larg
est retail chain.
The Justice Department al
so won a victory of sorts in a
price discrimination case in
volving two big milk distri
butors in the Chicago area -Bowman
Dairy Co. and the
Borden Co. A lower court had
accepted the companies' cost
justification for price dis
counts to chain stores but the
Supreme Court ordered more
proceedings. The case is 11
years old.
In the field of obscenity,
the court did not act the way
the Justice Department sug
gested. Instead, it set aside a
post office order barring from
the mails three magazines ap
ealing to male homosexuals.
The court ruled that the
magazines were not offensive
or indecent enough to be ob
scene. A minority of three
even said the postmaster gen
eral did not have authority
from Congress to determine

PLANNED LONGEVITY
Lincoln Continental is the automobile that gives
no quarter to the false philosophies of "conspic
uous consumption" and "planned obsoles
cence." The Continental has been specifically
designed tomakeitsownerscontented, and keep
them that way. To this end, its design features
have been made the ultimate in elegance, luxury,
and timelessness. Its engineering is so precise,
so durable that the Continental is the only Amer
ican car which oilers (or deserves) a 24,000 mile
or 2-year warranty. Because ol this "planned
longevity," the Lincoln Continental will remain
an up-to-date automobile throughout the years,
reflecting Us owner's taste, discrimination
and foresight.
