Calls Dismemberment Policy
Sincere Rural Toryism."
HARM TO INNOCENT CAPITAL
Declares Present Policy Leaves Mo-
nopoiy TO Operate in New Clothes
and immune From Prose
cution and Control.

New York. = Severe criticism
or the trust dismemberment pol
icy OF the present administration is
made by Theodore Roosevelt in an ed
itorial in the current number of the
outlook. The former president advo-
Gates complete governmental supervi-
sion Of industrial corporations as a
remedy for the evils of business com
bines.
The assertion by President Taft that
the recent Supreme court decisions
nave brought about an era of compe-
tlt1on is answered by Mr.. Roosevelt.
VINO declares that such a result is
neither possible nor desirable.
The recent suit for the dissolution
OF the United States Steel corporation
IS an evidence of chaotic government
policy as regards business, Mr.. Roose-
welt declares.
Mr.. Roosevelt cites the recent set
Element Of the tobacco trust litigation
as proof that the present national pol
icy simply leaves a monopoly, unim-
paired though in different clothes, and
immune from prosecution or control.
The methods used in Wisconsin for
the control of trusts within the state
are commended as worthy of being ex-
tended to the federal rule.
Mr.. Roosevelt lines up fatty against
Attorney General Wickersham and the
law officers of the present administra-
ton by declaring he was not deceived
IA permitting the Tennessee Coal &
Iron merger, which is one of the
grounds on which Wickersham has
asked the dissolution of the United
States Steel corporation. He contin-
ues:
1T is evident that the antitrust law
is not adequate to meet the situation
that has grown up because of modern
business and the accompanying ire
mendous increase in the business use
of vast quantities of corporate wealth.
1T is vitality necessary thing to
have the persons in control of big
trusts of the character of the Standard
Oil trust and the tobacco trust taught
that they are under the law, just as 1t
was necessary to have the sugar trust
taught the same lesson in drastic fash
ion by Henry l. Stimson when he was
United States district attorney In the
city of New York.
in the case Of the tobacco trust,
for instance, the settlement in the cir
cult court. in which the representa-
tives Of the government seem inclined
to concur, practically leaves all the
companies still substantially under the
control of the 20 original defendants.
Such a result is lamentable from the
standpoint Of justice
The decision of the circuit court, If
allowed to stand, means that the to-
bacco trust has merely been obliged
to change it's clothes, and that none OF
the real offenders have received any
punishment.
The antitrust law cannot meet the
whole situation, nor can any moditica-
ton of the principle Of the antitrust
law avail to meet the whole situation
The fact is that many men who have
called themselves progressives. and
who certainly believe that they are
progressive, represent in reality in
this matter not progress at all, but
kind of sincere rural toryism.''
