DESIRE CHANGES
Senate and House Leaders Be- Iieve Anti Trust Laws
 Need Strengthening.

WASHINGTON, April 9.--That the antitrust laws need strengthening and that the existing immunity clause must be redrawn, is the belief of fore most members of the House and Sen ate. President Roosevelt and Attor' ney General Moody. beaten in the Beef Trust prosecutions in Chicago. arC urging that steps be taken to revist the laws applying to miscellaneous corporations engaged in interstate commerce. A movement in that di- rection is begun, and results are prot able at this session of Congress.
 The administration suffered a hard blow by its defeat in the beef trust cases, when Judge Humphrey handed down a decision extending immunity to the sixteen defendants, because they had given information to Mir Garfield, chief of the Government Bu reau of Corporations. Mir. Moody has decided that no appeal to the Supreme Court will lie. These cases are lost. The only question is whether the government can be fortified in further investigation by stronger legislation
 Representative Evan w. Martin, of South Dakota, author of the resolution under which Mir. Garfield conducted the Beef Trust investigation" is talk ing an active part in urging legisla tion. "A bill should be passed" sai6 he today, giving the United State the right to appeal in criminal cases preserving to the accused, of course full protection against being twice pu in jeopardy by a second trial. Tho affirmative legislation required should give to the Federal Government |: close supervision of the organization and business affairs of the large inter state corporations.
 The Beef Trust prosecution illus trates forcibly that the criminal stat utes, while valuable for punitive ana exemplary purposes, are of little or nc value in reaching the abuses of "bi. business"
