According TO a memorial which
will be presented to the President on
his return from the west, thirty three
trusts are squeezing the life out of
an important industry, the manufac-
ture of agricultural machinery.
There is, it seems, one agricultural
machinery trust which, because il
mines the ore and provides the raw
material from which it makes its
products, is independent of the
trusts and it makes 90 per cent of
the agricultural machinery of the
country. The remaining 10 per
cent is made by various indepen-
dent companies and these are the
Presidents petitioners. The list of
of thirty-three trusts, to which these
independent manufacturers claim
they must pay "uibute", is too long
for reproduction here. The petition.
ers claim that these trusts have put up
the price on everything they have to
buy, arbitrarily and unnecessarily
Until they have become Gas mere
