It Is asserted by the defenders OF
trusts that in almost every instance
the formation Of a trust has been fol-
lowed by a decrease in the pa zee of the
product. This is true; but in most in
stances trusts have been formed 10
check the downward tendency of prices
by interfering with the operation of the
law Of supply and demand. Probably
there is no conspicuous instance of
lower prices following the organiza-
tion OF a trust, in which the prices to
the consumer would not have fallen
still lower i: the trust had not been
formed. The greatest objection to
trusts i8that they are wrong in prin-
ciple. in that they interfere with a
fundamental law Of trade.
