Danger of Overshooting Mark


 Tho demand for some constructive measure is so pronounced that we may be in danger of overshootng the mark Consideration of some constructive meas ure to supplement the antitrust law has been so long deferred that now we may provide more regulation than is wise.
 The control of private business is lik- ened to the regulation of public carriers. I am bound to say that, in my judg- ment. such an analogy is dangerous. It is still question to what extent even the wisest government regulation may serve to paralyze individual enterprise. I think there should be rules of the game but true competition depends upon the in- itiative and ambition of individual play CTS.
 It is always dangerous to attempt to anticipate experience. It is more safe to adopt in the first instance one measure which is clearly called for by existing conditions, and then permit it's growth and development to depend upon our ex- perience.
 Province of the Law
 It is the province of the law not a prescribe a result but to create condi- tions that may work out their own soIu- tion A working agreement depends upon the sustained interest of both parties, and that interest depends upon the con- tinued hope of success and returns to both parties. Just as much Is true of legislation. Too much regulation IS bound to destroy enterprise. It is my opinion, therefore, that we ought to be content with the adoption of a measure providing for the conditions upon which large commerce may organize, and for such publicity as may be necessary to judge from time to time whether or not these conditions are being observed, and then leave all further control and reg,l- latIon to be built upon our experience as we gain it.

Life Preservers Needed for Aviators

Joe Mitchell Chappele in National Mag
 azine.
 The fatalities of the Chicago aero meet emphasized the necessity of life preservers for air men. It is felt that the time must soon come when every machine will have its parachute or some safety appliance. Aviation demands de- velopment along utilitarian lines. with due regard for the laws of physics. Even as heavy weight which could not be lifted can be rolled up an fn- cline plane, so it is thought fin some way the law of physics might be de- veloped, and thousands of pounds be rolled up in the air with perfect safe ty. Thus would be made possible achievements which even Archimedes contemplated as theoretical possibtli- ties. Ultimately aviation may literally lift the burdens of mankind, as well as sweep the heavens with the joyous freedom of the birds of the air.

Rights of Small Stockholders

In the discussion with respect to the re- organization of concerns now pending, most of the attention has been given to the great interests involved, and to the danger to commerce generally. That is all true. but it Is equally true that near ly all these concerns have a large num- Der of small stockholders. These have made their investments in the belief that these concerns were legitimate The fact that no proceedings against them were entered has been accepted as an implied approval of their conduct
 However necessary this correction is, and however wholesome the general re- suit must be, it is nevertheless apparent that as an exclusive general policy our one sided corrective system cannot be recommended. An ounce of prevention Is worth pound of cure. The wiser course Is to say what is condemned; so that every investor may know what he is do- ing and what risks he runs, and so that we may have at least some reason for saying that every citizen is presumed to know the law.
