DENEEN IN SPEECH
Governor Of illinois Strongly Opposes
Government Ownership of Public
Utilities-Means ImmeasurabIe In.
justice to Many Industries.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. Ex-Governor
Deneen made strong speech in op-
position to governmental ownership of
public utilitiesin addressing the Bank
ers' Association Of Illinois at their an
nual convention today. The governor
said the action of the large employers
of labor to secure an enactment of
laws for the protection of those who
labor against the unnecessary risks of
life, limb, and health and of railroads
to relieve the situation, has resulted In
tries.
The governor said he firmly believed
that if employers fail to make wise
suggestions in reference to legisla-
tion applicable to their busi-
ness and necessary to the common good
they will shortly find their business
regulated by laws placed upon the
statute books by men not familiar with
the requirements. The question of reg
ulation or no regulation, is rapidly
passing into the dangerously radical
issue of government regulation or gov
ernment ownership. While he deemed
it hardly credHabl that there is any
immediate danger Of triumph of the
doctrine of government ownership, yet
the tendency is rapidly growing. Its
proper antidote, he declared, was to be
found in the greater participation OF
the conservative elements of society in
economic discussion, and it's political
life and action of "a community. He
urged the bankers of Illinois
to aid i'm framing such laws
for the supervision of banking institu-
tions, that will avert such disastrous
failures as had been lately witnessed,
and make them well nigh impossible.
A strong plea against government
ownership of public utilities, which, he
declared, would tend to socialize the
country, kill individualism, and put a
stop to the progress of the country,
was made by Lieutenant Governor
Sherman. He. warned capitalists and
corporations that the sure way to
bring on government ownership was
for them to endeavor to block the
passage of laws for just and reason
able regulations of corporations.
