3 MOTOR FIRMS

FACE ANTITRUST:

“ACTION BY U. .

Seek Settlement Without Trial on Financing Charges.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON. Nov. 23 (U. P) -—Representatives of Ford, Chrysler end General Motors are seeking trom the Government a settlement without trial, possibly by a consent decree, of allegations that antitrust laws have been violated by the imposition of exclusive financing imposed upon their dealers A Federal Grand Jury at Milwaukee has resumed deliberations on the charges after a recess granted for negotiations hetween the Justice Department and the three companies Russell Hardy, special assistant who has handled the case for the Justice Department, has returned to Milwaukee. A decision is expected within a week or two as to whether there will be an consent decree.

Wants Demands Met

Robert H. Jackson assistant torney General in charge of anti- | trust prosecutions, who is in charge of the negotiations here, is not ex- | pected to permit a consent decree | unless the companies meet all of the Government's demands The Administration believes there would be an outburst in Congress unless the public, the dealers and the independent financing companies were protected fully. The Justice Department has been urged in some quarters to proceed to trial as a means of dramatizing its current antitrust campaign. This case has brought the automobile industry, or most of it. within the general antitrust offensive inaugurated in recent months. This offensive already involves cement, aluminum and oil, and it may lead, according to an authoritative report today. into other big industries. Acts on Complaints Justice Department representatives spent a year and a half gathering evidence in the automobile cases, which involve alleged agreements requiring dealers to finance exclusively through specified finance companies affiliated with the “Big Three”—Ford through Universal Credit, Chrysler through Commercial Credit Corp. and General] Motors Acceptance Corp. It acted on complaints from numerous dealers and independent finance companies. In seeking to ward off Government action, representatives of the auto manufacturers have sought to capitalize on the business recession, arguing against any radical changes in their business methods at this rime. They began their pressure upon Government officials last week
