AMERICANS SHOUT
BEFORE THEY ARE HURT"
Declares That Interstate Board
Would Correct Wrongs but
That No One Has
Appeared to
Complain.

81. Louis, April S.-"Had we made
our capital stock billion dollars in
stead of the insignificant sum of S97.-
25O.OO0 and declared per cent
dividend as we might easily have
done, there would have been no com
plant against us. declared Chief
counsel Milburn in mis- argument in
sdefense of the Standard oil com
pany in the government suit to dis
solVe the company. Milburn compiet-
ed his plea at noon.
When court convened this morn
ing Milburn continued his argument
In benalf Of the company. He re-
pied to the charges of Kellogg that
the company earned more than a
half billion dollars on its capital of
$sT'25O,OO0. He said 1t was true that
the profits exceeded the sums paid
cut as dividends but declared that the
money was used in extending the
proprties
I'VE admit our profit annually is
"a per cent, but we do not apologize
or defend 1t. We stand on it." de-
clared Milburn, as he pointed out the
company's investments.
Americans shout before they are
hurt" he declared. "If hurt they
shout until help comes" He said
that none complained but that the
interstate commerce commission is
ready 10 correct the wrongs OF ttans-
portatlon. Yet no oie has appeared
to complain about pipe lines, he said.
