STATE COMMERCE.
(By Associated Press.)

Paducah, KY, July 1.-THE state
control of corporations doing on in
terstate business was discussed an
address before the State Bar assoc
alton by George Wickersham, attor
ney general of the United States, in
this city otnight.
OF paramount Importance, because
Mr.. Wickersham gave complete
treatment of the trust question as IL
appears to the present national ad.
ministration, the address was notable
chiefly by the recommendation that
congress should enact law provid
ing for nationally created incorpora
tions to carry on interstate com
merce.
"Of course, many will object 20 the
centralizing tendency of national
law authorizing the formation of cor
porations to carry on interstate bust
ness" said Mr.. Witkershan-, "bu!
such law seems to me to be- the in
evitable result of economic condi
tions"
