DEALING WITH TIE TRUSTS.

1t is significant that the president in his message
to congress- the republican trust newspapers and Mr.
James B. Dill who has been called the father Of
trusts" should all have hit upon publicity" as the
proper solution of the trust problem.
THE utilization and restraint OF trusts" saws Mr.
Dill, "are the essential elements in industrial success
This regularity and control had only by an en-
lightened public opinion and by wise legislation"
1t is just as impossible TO understand what Mr. Dill
means by that as II is to understand the presidents
similar recommendation in his message How are the
trusts to be restrained and how controlled? There is
homey proverb to the effect that fine words butter
no parsnps The sounding phrases of Mr. Din and of
President Roosevelt fall gratefully on delicate ear
but as guide for practical action they are about as
seryiceable as bar Of music.
Mr., M. l.. Lockwood, president of the American
Antitrust League has given out a statement within
the last few days in which he crtcses at length the
recommendations made by President Roosevelt for a
National law TO govern trade combinations Mr. Lock
wood contends that there is no necessity for any fur

cent Civic Federation conference. He says:
