‘ THE PRESIDENT’S MES-
, SAGE.
J President William Howard
Taft submitted to Congress his
third annual message today. The
an. admin 11111. army
of equity jurisprudence.”
- . .Then further on in his message
' he considers what has been said
. . oi; the repeal of the law and says,
“But I which thet the discussions ‘
which have been brought out in
tinned seecutlon or the anti-trust
law have produced nothing but
glittering generalities. and have
offered no line of distinction or
rule of action as definite and as
clear as that which the Supreme
Court itself lays down in enforc-
in the statute."
he president also reviews the
act in regards to its force and. ef-
fectiveness. and says this, is a mat-
ter of growth. Calling attention
to juries feeling averse to convict-
ing men of respectability to a term
of imprisonment for an offense
which has been regarded “as
merely statutory." he continues
and says. “Still. as the offense‘be-
comes better understood and the
”committing of it4partakes more of
studied and deliberate defiance of
the law, we can be confidentthat
juries will convict individuals and
that jail sentences will be im-
posed. "
As to the effectiveness of the
decree' 1n the case of the American
Tobacco Company he writes. “I
venture to say that not in the his-
tory of American law has a decree
more effective for such a purpose
been-entered by a court than that
document was devoted exclusive-
.ly to the consideration of the:
Sherman Anti-Trust law and the
trust question in general. Warn-l
ing Congress that it was but thel
first of a number of messages
which he would submit to that
body before the Christmas ad-i
" journment he went on to explain. .
comprehensively and with a clear-l
ness and terseness which usuallyl
g haracterises his expressions on
great national questions. The
. language of the message is so.
chosen as to make it possible for,
all to read it easily and under-
stendingly. and serves to clarify
“ ny phases of this complicated
Wet which have been misun-
derstood by many; since "trust-
.busting" first began to occupy the:
attention of the people of the
World.
‘ The president lets it be known;
in‘no uncertain terms that he is
opposed to either the repeal or
amendment of the Sherman law.
. Instead he urges strongly supple-
rmjentary legislation “which shall
describe and denounce methods of 4
competition which are unfair and‘
re badges of the unlawful pur-
‘ pose denounced in the anti-trust
He also recommends federal' mJ
orporation, recalling, in this in'-:
stance, his special message sent
to Congress on January 7, 1910.l
in which he said. “It is possible1
4: so to frame a statute that while it
offers protection to a federal com-
pany against harmful. vexatious
and unnecessary invasion by the
states, it shall“ subject it to a rea-
sonable taxation and control by
1 the states with respect to its pure-
* ly local business."
For the supervision of those
corporations which should sub-
scribe to the federal corporation
law, he recommends the creationI
of a federal corporation commis-
sion with powers akin to the In-
terstate Commerce Commission.
He holds. however, that subscrib-
' ‘ers to such a commission would
not be exempt from prosecution
[under the anti-trust laws. should
that commission or the courts de-
tect any infringement under the
terms of that law.
.4111 speaking of the criticisms
tit have been directed against
herman act and of those who
been loud in their demands
it be repealed, the president
j; hose critics who speak of,
0. disintegration in the trust as.
e change of garments have
"given consideration to the' in-
his working of the decree.
understand ittle the personal
4‘ ton Globe
Zagainst the Tobacco Trust." .
That the message, dealing as it
does with this great question ex-
clusively and comprehensively,
will serve to clarify the situation
in the minds of the American peo.
ple, and that it gives them the
benefit of a keen analysis of the
effectiveness and force of this
statute at the hands of the presi-
dent. whose trained legal mind
has enabled him to grasp the es-
sentials of the question. looking
at it from all points of view. goes
without saying.
