Robert C. Weaver '29, administrator of the Housing and Home Finance Agency, last night declared that integrally planned new communities will provide useful demonstrations of what can be done "in creating a new pattern for suburbia," but he warned that such communities "will not solve our problems of future suburban development...
...each of the past two years. Spurning Government subsidies, Heineman has employed modern technology-from computers to helicopters-to cut his expenses and win back business from the highways. He led the fight against railroad featherbedding, enduring a costly strike and winning labor contracts that have set an industry pattern. Urged to abandon the North Western's commuter operation-which was losing $2,500,000 annually-he instead modernized equipment, advertised for passengers. Last year his road earned the nation's only commuter profit...

If the Supreme Court continues in this pattern, more federal judges may be emboldened to back the trustbusters' complaints in the lower courts. The Justice Department is now arguing suits against Milwaukee and Chicago bank mergers, is expected to file another against a San Francisco bank. It is also watching other mergers that it feels might lessen competition...
