Worldmarks And The Antitrust Law, Rudolf Callmann
Vanderbilt Law Review
Like all things, trademark rights can also be exploited for sinister purposes. A trademark can, for example, be used in violation of the antitrust laws and no elaborate references need be made to the legislative history of the Lanham Act to demonstrate that the Act was "not intended to undermine the anti-trust laws."' Certain specific provisions of the Act clearly disclose the legislative intent to dissuade a trademark owner from using his mark in violation of the antitrust laws.

A Note On Concentration Studies And Antitrust Policy, Jesse W. Markham

Du Pont General Motors Case, James A. Hart
Du Pont General Motors Case, James A. Hart
Vanderbilt Law Review
On June 3, 1957, the United States Supreme Court, in a four to two decision, held that the du Pont Company's ownership of twenty-three per cent of the voting stock of General Motors had tended to create a monopoly in a line of commerce and thus violated section 71 of the Clayton Act. Justice Brennan wrote the majority opinion and Justice Burton, joined by Justice Frankfurter filed a vigorous dissent.
