Trust League, Says Laws Against
Combinations Are Ample.

Terry, Tex, Dec. 3O.-M. L. Lock
wood, Of Zelienople, Pa, president OF
the American Antitrust league, has
given out a statement in which he
criticises at length the recommends
tiOns made by President Roosevelt
for a national law to govern trade
combinations. Mr.. Lockwood con-
tends that there is no necessity for
any further legislation on the sub
jet; that the rigid enforcement of
the Sherman antitrust law would be
sufficient to suppress efectuaIly and
restrain hurtful trade and industrial
combinations. He then says: Does
not everyone know that these indus
trial combinations have destroyed
competition, have created monopoly
and are now rObbing the American
people of hundreds of millions of dol
lars annually to pay dividends on bill
lions of watered stock, and that some
of these dividends are 4s per cent.
