President Says Defeat of Nazi Armies Will Have to Be
Followed by Eradication
“And Stringent Restrictions on Others.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8
of That: Nation's Cartels
said today that the defeat of the Nazi armies would have to be followed by the eradication of German cartels and stringent restrictions on cartel practices in international trade. . In a letter to Secretary of State Cordell Hull, the President asked Hull to “keep your eye” on the whole subject of
international cartels “because we are approaching the time when discussions will almost certainly arise between us
and other nations.” The President read the letter to
his news conference and added the|
verbal comment the “subject | of international cartels would become most important in the ext six months. : The letter to Hull outlined the
American traditional opposition to|”
private monopolies and likewise the liberal American principles of free international trade for which Hull long has fought. “Unfortunately, a number of foreign countries, particularly in continental Europe, do not possess such a tradition against cartels,” ‘the President's letter said. “On the oontrary, cartels have received en‘couragement from some of these governments.” Mr. Roosevelt's discussion: gave emphasis to & campaign which the justice department's anti-trust division has been waging to prevent
post-war international cartel agree-|
ments. Spokesmen have charged recently, in testimony before congressjonal. committees, that such agreements enabled the axis to gain valuable information about American industry and industrial develop-

Times Special WHITELAND, Sept. 8.—Firemen believed today that an overheated motor on an elevator in the warehouse section started a blaze which razed the Stokely, Bros. & Co. cannery here yesterday, causing an estimated loss of $300,000. The loss was covered by insurance. The flames originated in the sec-

FLINT, Mich, Sept. 8 (U. P.).— America's air commerce has been Jeopardized by a native “Cliveden set in awiation” and by the efforts of a powerful railroad lobby “to force its way into commercial aviation,” C. Bedell Monro, president
of Pennsylvania-Central airlines charged today,

‘This board is administering the law in a manner consistent with sound and sincere American pia ciples,” the airline executive the meeting “but because it is “ amenable to the special Hieyeste of monopolists, attempts are made to do away with the ie » Monro put P. C. A. squarely on rec- | ord as indorsing the policies of the CAB which he asserted “have been responsible for the orderly growth of our great system of transportation.” It is “unbelievable, but a fact” that certain carriers in the air transportation field that have cried: the loudest against monopoly in the international field seek “not only to perpetuate but to increase the] virtual monopolies which they now {have in their territory in the do!mestic field.”
