[Docket C-3378]


Mannesmann, A.G.; Prohibited Trade Practices and Affirmative 
Corrective Actions

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Set aside order.

Commission approval prior to acquiring any business that manufactures

pursuant to the Commission's Prior Approval Policy Statement. The order

presumes that the public interest requires setting aside the prior 
approval requirement in Paragraph V of the order.

October 11, 1995.\1\
