SUMMARY OF HIS
ANNUAL MESSAGE
PRESIDENT TAFT DEVOTED
1T MOSTLY To The TRUST
AND TRUST LAWS.
President Defended Supreme Court of
U. Supposed to Repeal of Amend
ment-Federal Law Proposed to Su-
pervise Corporations-w Reason
able'' Under Discussion.

ington.-President Taft S third
annual message to congress, devoted ex
clusively to the Sherman antitrust act
and the trust question in general, was
read in congress Tuesday.
The i'resid.n defended the Sherman
act as interpreted by the supreme court
of the United States, indicated plainly
his opposition to the repeal or amend
ment of this statute. but suggested that
congress pass a federal Incorporation
law and supplemental legislation that
"would describe and denounee methods
of competition that are unfair.
To supervise corporations chartered
under federal law, President Taft pro
posed the creation of an executive bu-
reau of commission, with powers akin
to those of the interstate commerce com
mission.
In NJ uncertain terms the president
gives the lie to those who claim that.ithe
supreme court has emasculated the Sher-
man anti trust law by reading into it
the word reasonable. - The president
gives unstinted praise to the court, and
characterizes the decision in the to
bacco case the most important in the
history of American law.

JUROR BRIBERY EXPOSE
G. T. Lockwood Tells of Franklin s
Plan of Paying the $4,000.

Los Angeles.-For the first time since
the arrest of Bert II. Franklin on a
charge of bribing a Mcnamara tales
man, George T. Lockwood, the pivotal
witness in this startling phase of the
case has revealed the circumstances sur
rounding the alleged bribery.
According to Lockwood, who now re-
sides on a ranch near Covina, startling
developments will follow the arraign-
ment and trial of Franklin.
The identity of the prominent repre-
sentative of the defense who was in
conversation with Franklin when the
latter was arrested probably will be re-
vealed, according to Lockwood. An
other trusted official will be dragged
into the bribery smirch, the talesman
believes, and illumination will be given
to the charges and rumors that other
jurors were bribed.
Lockwood s statement, which was
made at his home today, is as follows:
Gin the beginning l want it under
stood that the part l must take in the
prosecution of Franklin will be pain
full one. He was my friend for long
time; we were deputy sheriffs togeth,r.
/ hesitated for some time on that ac-
count before presenting to the district
attorney what facts l had secured.
talked it all over with my wife and we
decided that it was my duty to report
what had occurred
Franklin offered $4,000.
- Franklin approached me some time
ago, and after considerable talk he
said that he had been told to get some
men on the jury, and that he hoped ]
would be drawle He offered me $4,000
at this time and said he would see me
again. This was later raised to $4,000
when was called as a talesman. He
said that ] was good friend Of the
district attorneys Office and for that
reason they would not suspect my mo-
tives. lie said that he. would fix it
with the defense, so that would be
questioned severely, to keep up the APP
pearance. Franklin, at that time, made
no mention of how the money should be
paid -
Juror Balm Was Approached.
Los Angeles.-Th Los Angeles Elk
aminer prints a declaration that the
wife of Robert +. Balm, the first juror
sworn in the Mcnamara case, was brib-
ed by the Mcnamara defense to in
fiuence her husband to secure dis
agreement of the jury. A signed ar
tiele by two reporters announces that
Balm himself, as well as his wife, in
formed them of the Offering of bride
and that signed confession by Mrs
Balm was in the hands of District At
torney Fredericks.
