President Wilson Speaks.
President Wilson, who made the address
of the day, said:
Individual accounta bility for the acts Of
corporations, the arrest and imprisonment
of corporation heads instead of the fning
or dissolution of corporations themselves
is the remedy for the monopolfstic tenden-
cies and the unlawful practices of modern
industry urged by Woodrow Wilson, presi-
dent of Princeton University, in an address
at the jamestown exposition today.
'One really responsible man in JAIL" he
said, 'one real originator of the schemes
and transactions which are contrary to
the public interest legally lodged in the
penitentiary would be worth more than
a thousand corporations mulcted in fines,
If the reform is TO be genuine and perma-
nent."
What this country needs. Mr.. Wilson set
forth, is not government ownership of rail-
roads. etc, but laws that will attack and
punish presidents and general managers
of railroads for evasions and violations of
the statutes Stock manipulations he calls
Sheer thefts," and says they should be
punished such. Failure to do So in his
mind, is like overlooking highway rob-
berries"
Individual Responsibility.
Every corporation the educator
stated, lis personally directed either by
some one dominant person by some
group Of persons. Somebody in particu-
lar is responsible for ordering or sanction
ing every illegal act committed by it's
agents or officers; but neither our law Of
personal damage nor our criminal law
has sought to seek the responsible per-

The claim is made that the smelter trust

President Wilson says it is just as alb
surd to indct or dissolve corporations for

to arrest and confiscate automobiles be-
cause their owners killed pedestrians. If
the individual is made responsible Mr.. Will
son is convinced the difficulty will be solved.
