Even had the American Refining
company intended sitting competition
through the formation Of the present
trust,' testified Thomas, ut would not
have realized It's ambition. In this
respect the company Is far from a
success"
The witness said the trust was form
ed to "fortify' The American against
competition rather than to crush com
petition.
Thomas was asked what ne thoush'
congress could do toward preventing
the creation of trusts. He had preyl-
ously testified that he didn't know
what trust was but said he thought
forbldding the payment OF bonuses
which It Is now the practice to give
owners Of companies absorbed by a
monopoly, would go far toward end
ing trust building.
