Dear Congressman Stokes:

Thank you for your letter of February 12, 1997, requesting that we contact [REDACTED TEXT (b7D)] who had written to you complaining that Frito-Lay is attempting to put him out of business by paying local companies not to carry his products.

The Department is aware of the concerns expressed by [REDACTED TEXT (b7D)] Since receiving your letter, lawyers in the Antitrust Division have spoken to [REDACTED TEXT (b7D)] regarding the allegations contained in his letter to you.

Thank you for your interest in this matter and in the enforcement of the antitrust laws.

Sincerely,


Joel I. Klein

The Honorable Louis Stokes
