...producer of a different but possibly competitive product. Specifical ly, the court disapproved of the 1956 merger between Continental Can and Hazel-Atlas Glass, ruling 7-2 that Continental's cans and Hazel's bottles were not in separate industries but were all part of the "competitive overlap" in the packaging market. > In a highly concentrated industry, a large company may not acquire a relatively small competitor. A month ago, the court held that Aluminum Co. of America violated antitrust laws by its 1959 acquisition of the Rome Cable Corp. Rome had only 1.3% of the aluminum cable...
...metropolitan economy can become more important than even that of the state," he said, and problems such as "inadequate highways and air and water pollution" overlap the jurisdiction of towns and cities. The existence of these problems was "not foreseen in the Constitution," he pointed out, and new policies must be worked out on all government levels...
Swiftly cutting from person to person, place to place, Resnais' camera leapfrogs through time, often with stunning effect. Even more daringly, he lets dialogue overlap-voices from one scene continue into the sequence following, or precede images yet to come.

A 1961 survey, conducted by an independent Manhattan research company for the Daily News, showed that seven out of ten Mirror readers also read the News on weekdays-and nearly nine out of ten on Sunday. Such duplicate readership is fickle, as New York's 114-day newspaper strike proved when it ended last April. Almost at once, Mirror circulation dropped by 85,000-the suspicion was that the defectors were...
...Federal Communications Commission now proposes to license a new television station, Channel 37, in Paterson, N.J. This will be only the first of nineteen Channel 37s which the F.C.C. expects to spread across the nation so that they will not overlap. Unfortunately broadcasting networks on this channel will transmit radio waves on the frequencies between 608 and 614 megacycles per second. Radio astronomers find this portion of the spectrum very useful because it is roughly an octave below (half the frequency) of the 21-centimeter line of unionized hydrogen. If Channel 37 becomes nationwide, all astronomical work on that band...
