Last week Attorney General Herbert Brownell dismissed the six-year-old suit. After months of looking into every possible way to carry on, the Justice Department decided-with the full concurrence of lawyers and section chiefs held over from the Democratic Administration-that it lacked sufficient evidence. For one thing, the big four's share of the U.S. meat market has shrunk from one-half to less than one-third in the last ten years, while 800 independents have stepped to the fore.

Heidi (United Artists) is pretty well taken care of in the words of a six-year-old boy who saw the picture. "It got sad in the middle," he said, "but it happiered at the end." The suggestion of a fallen cake, sunk under the weight of its unassimilated sugar, fits Lazar Wechsler's film as well as Johanna Spyri's book (here done in film for the second time), but young children will probably like the one as well as they do the other. Heidi herself is freshly, simply played by Elsbeth Sigmund, and her crusty grandfather...
