Much of this evidence already had been made public Mr. Dlcklnson told the eourt that the billion dollar corporation, in mag nitude and strength, ia the greatest combination of capital ever brought together under one control. . He began his argument by going back more than a score of years into the his tory of American Industriea. He told of the sharp competition that then existed in the iron, steel, tin plate and kindred industries: of how pools were formed in the steel rail field and how ireements were made among manu facturers of iron and steel to keep up prices: how these pools dried up and aareementa were, ttfoken; how cantains of industry sHftemed to put one another 'but of business; how one steel concern would absorb another ,"snd gradual- led up to the formation of the gigaiftlc corporation now under attack.

Mr. Dickinson made no refer ence, to former ifesident Roosevelt, but in the brief filed by the govern ment.
