Utah Not Invited to the st. Louis
Convention.

Relative to the announcement that the
governors and attorney generals of all
the states had been invited to attend the
proposed antitrust convention in St.
Louis. Acting Governor Hammond said
yesterday that no such invitation had yet
been received at the executive offices OF

While Acting Governor Hammond does
not pretend 10 know the full scope of the
convention. he expressed the belief that
the matter of suggesting or framing leg
islation against the monopolies can be
handled better through the concerted ac-
ton of the states than through congress.
II is a legislative and not an executive
problem. suggested Secretary Hammond.

line proposed should, in order to reach
popular results, be a convention of leg
islative committees. The governors can
only recommend legislation or veto leg
islative acts and frequently a legislature
is diametrically opposed TO the execu-
tive's policies.

Wells. who is in New York. indicating
