HISCHIEVOUS LEGISLATION.
10 the Term Chairman Knapp Applies
to Sherman Anti Trust Law.

ton in the history of our country
is the Sherman anti trust law, be-
cause it recognizes and is based
on the exploded economical theory
that competition is thu life of
trade"
This statement was made Satur-
day by Martin A. Knapp, chair
man of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. in an address before
the annual convention of the
American Association of Freight
Traffic Officers at the Auditor
ium.
Only one man, and he the
President of the United States, "
he continued. has dared to tell
the people of the nefarious charac-
ter of this legislation; to tell
them that we have advanced be-
yond the point where unrestrain-
ed competition is a blessing; who
has had the courage to point out
the blighting effects of his act
and to call attention to the COM
mercial and economic necessity
for the restraint of the savagery
of competition"
1t was Mr.. Knapp's new doc
trines of social economy-that
combination, and its resultant
monopoly. in some form followed
the increase of transportation and
distributing facilities in geometri-
Gal ratio. Whether combination
and so-called trusts would prove a
good thing for the world the
speaker was unable to say, but he
. felt that the problem could be
safely left in the hands of the
people, with the assurance that
the present was a transition period
to the certain coming of a world
wide federation. commercial

give way to kindly assistance anC
