In an interview at Augusta, Ca, a few

ut Is hard TO understand why, with
all the conditions favorable to unpre.
eedented prosperity in this country,
said Mr. Prick, there has suddenly
appeared a hesitation in activity, par
tieularly upon the part Of railroads
and manufacturing establishments
which are first to fee! the demands
for increased facilities to meet public
requirements and the first to take
alarm when the demand halts. II this
cause is, as it is generally asserted
a fear of unfriendly legislation at
Washington and the drastic enforce.
ment of the antitrust law against the
business organizations of the country
| cannot believe that is sufficient
reason to justify the timidity shown
in many quarters. Congress will not
legislate any form of property out of
existence and court decisions cannot
destroy the produetiyeness of the soil
or of any legitimate enterprise.
Even though it may be necessary
to change the forms or methods of
doing the business, there will be just
as much business done as the neees.
