before the board OF Commissioners yester-
day regarding their action in refusing to

Extending Trade Relations.

"There is hardly anything that could be
of more service in extending trade rela-
tons than that the government should
have the benefit of the counsel of the men
engaged in trade and whose experience
could best point the way for extending
exports. The United States is behind
other great nations in that respect. and
no time should be lost in making use Of
this valuable means Of extending our COM
merce.
1T is important that the government
should be informed as fully and as early
as possible to the needs OF American
manufacturers and exporters i'm foreign
markets.. it is added: "as to grievances
which exporting interests may have in
connection with the treatment accorded
their products by foreign customs Off
Gals: AS TO restrictions to which they are
subjected: to any possible discrimina-
tons against them and any other matters
which may properly be taken up by the
government in it's negotiations with for
eign countries.
THE department has taken the first
steps to bring about this helpful relation
between the government and the business
community the Secretary SAYS. 1T now
remains for the business world to grasp
the proffered hand and to do It's share in
making the new organization a success"

Prosecution of Corporations.

Considerable space is devoted in the re-
port to the prosecutions instituted by the
bureau of corporations. and accounts are
given of some of the cases, but the Sec
rotary says that in many lines it has been
found that the government can much
more advantageously direct and curb the
operations Of great Industrial combina-
lions than it can suppress them altogether.
He adds that he is in favor of publicity
as corrective measure in many of the
corporate cases. and finds that where
some of the corporations are given a
chance they viii cooperate with the de-
partment and do right voluntarily rather
than be forced into it, This he SAYS, is
much easier way of handling the prob
lem than instituting prosecutions and in
ficting penalties.
