TO CONTROL TRUSTS.
NEWLANDs ASKS FOR, FEDERAL
BOARD TO REGULATE INDUS "A
TRIAL cORPoRATloNs.
PUBLICITY TO BE REQUIRED
Would Compel All Concerns Doing
Business Of 100000 or, More
Annually to Register and Comply.
With Law.

Washington.-Sena Newlands Of
Nevada in a speech in the senate ad-
vocated an interstate trade commits
sion Of five members to control indus
trial corporations, as the interstate
commerce body regulates the rail-
roads. &
He contended that the Standard Oil
and Tobacco decisions and the re-
cent government report on the steel
industry demonstrate the need of IAN
Independent, quasi-judicial and admin
istrative tribunal of great character
and dignity. as far removed from par
tisan control as are the courts" The
plan is to apply only to industrial cor
porations engaged in Interstate trade
whose annual receipts exceed $4,000
900.
Mr. Newlands' speech was in ad-
vocacy of bill he introduced provid-
ing for such>a commission. His meas
.ure would separate the bureau of
corporations from the department of
commerce and labor, and merge the
bureau into a commission of inter-
state trade.
This commission would require all
Industrial corporations having re-
ceipts exceeding $5,000,000 to make
satisfactory statements as to capt.
talization, finances and operations,
such corporations to be known as
United States registered" companies.
1t proposes to make lack Of such
registration an indication Of some
thing wrong"
Mr.. Newlands declared that II such
legislation had replaced or aided the
Sherman antitrust act over twenty
years ago this scountry would have ad-
vanced as far In the regulation of in
dustrial organizations as 1t has in
railroad regulation. He referred to
recent expressions by MIR. Gary Of the
Steel corporation and others as indi-
eating that the great corporation
managers realize that public regula-
ton is inevitable.
Mr.. BNewlands said his plan pro-
poses that frequent reports be re-
quired from the corporations, informa-
ton Of public interest to be published
from time to time, the commission to
be non-partisan, not more than three
members to be of one party, and the
term Of ofice to be ten years. He
said that his plan makes no attempt
to give too many powers Of correc-
ton or punishment, nor the power Of
fixing prices, but its powers may be
enlarged as experience shall indicate.
The measure proposed includes
these provisions: The commission
may cancel at any time the registra-
ton of any corporation for improper
financial organization, oppressive or
unfair methods Of competition, accept
ance of railroad rebates. refusal to al
low access to records or non-compli-
ance with any judicial decree rem
dered under the Sherman act. In ex-
IRENE cases 1t may debar the offend
ing corporations from engaging in in
sterstate commerce and it may require
correction OF overcapitalization.
