RULES TRUST LAWS COVER LABOR UNITS
WASHINGTON, March 26 (U. P.).—U. 8S. District Judge Peyton Gordon ruled today that labor organizations do not enjoy any
tion under the anti-trust laws. He refused to dismiss an indictment against the Washington local of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (A. F. of L.) and five of its officials. The indictment was returned as a result of a jurisdictional dispute between the teamsters and another A. F. of L. affiliate, the International Union of Operating Engineers, over. control of transit mix cement trucks. Judge Gordon’s decision was an important victory for the Departiment of Justice in its campaign against A. F. of L. building trades unions for alleged restraint of trade. The A. F. of L. lawyers contended | that the Clayton ' amendments
| adopted in 1914 specifically exempt-|
{ed all labor organizations from the | anti- trust laws.
