WILMINGTON, Del.—Crawford
H. Greenwalt, president of the Du
Pont Ooritpafty, noted that the De- Court
partraent of Justice had made no
public mention of the fact that it
had withdrawn a criminal antitrust
charge filed in 1948 against Du
Pont in the Federal District Court
in Pittsburgh, Pa. He was referring
to the dropping of an indictment
accusing the company and a retir-
ed employee. Henry Lackey, of
conspiring with six other companies
to fix prices, discounts and terms of
sale of wood finishes.
Although the Antitrust Division
showed no distaste for publicity at
the time the indictment was ob-
tained, it seems now as though
its attitude has changed," Mr.
Greenwalt said. “It is now apparent
that if anybody is going to tell the
public that this case against Du
Pont was dropped, it will have to
be the defendant.
"This seems a trifle inconsiderate
to those of us who squirmed under
the initial publicity, but I suppose
we should be sympathetic with a
human reluctance to admit error.
After all, it is the Christmas sea-
in. In any event it is my privi-
lege to announce to the public gen-
erally that the Department of Jus-
tice, on December 2, 1952, drop-
ped this case against us."
Other companies concerned in
the proceeding elected to plead nolo
contendere and paid tinea. A com-
panion cate, involving painta, var-
nishes, enamels and |
ed late last year with
by a jury in the Federal
in Pittsburgh of D
and the Glldden Company, the only
companies that did not plead nolo
contendere.
The company pointed out that
the case dismissed in Pittsburgh on
December 2 had no connection wfth
the so-called “General Motors”
antitrust suit, a cavil action that
resumes in the Federal District
Court in Chicago on January 5.
