Under Barnes the Antitrust Division has filed 104 new cases against some giants of U.S. business, among them, Pan American World Airways and the Radio Corp. of America. Last week, three days after his nomination to the federal bench was announced, Stanley Barnes warned General Motors Corp. that it might be wise to give up one or more of its divisions (see BUSINESS).

Once he bought a 1,000-ton war-surplus Canadian minesweeper for a yacht, then decided to turn it into a banana boat. Result: Davis' Three Bay Lines now has seven ships transporting 1,000,000 tons of produce monthly between Caribbean ports. Everywhere around Miami, Davis draglines, Davis bulldozers, Davis dredges are filling in swampy land, cutting yacht canals to prepare the way for $35,000 to $100,000 homes...
