Defended the Sherman Antitrust
Law at Banquet Given by
the Chamber Of Com
merce.
WOULD CUT OFF HAND
Declares He Would Sooner do That
Than to lnjure the Business
Interests Of Amer
lea.

PITTSBURGH Pa. Nov. 1.-Presi-
dent Taft defended the Sherman anti
trust law last night in answer to an
address by Congressr an Martin w.
Littleton Of New York, who earlier in
the evening had attacked provisions
Of the law at a banquet of the Pitts
burgh chamber of commerce. It was
nearly midnight when the president
started to speak.
sThis question has been eloquently
considered by my friend. Littleton. =
said Mr.. Taft. "and regret that the
matter has come up It savors OF
harshness to have difference OF
opinion on an occasion of this kind.
But must say what think.
"The Sherman law has been on the
statute books for twenty years and
has been construed. and construed
and construed. and finally by the su-
preme court The two decisions last
spring, in my judgment. give 1t def.
mite meaning that any combination In
restraint Of trade with the purpose Of
controlling prices and sitting COM
petition, is violation Of the statute.
Men know they intend to stifle
competition and control prices and all
that Is necessary In court Of law is
to prove the combination and the In
tent. That is all that is needed for
the enforcement OF any criminal
statute.
TT is not pleasant to be engaged in
what may seem to be an assault on
business, but business men thought
this law could not be enforced. Now
the law can and is being enforced and
because OF this we hear that 1t Is to
be repealed.
II would cut my hand off before
would injure business. But what has
my dear friend Littleton to offer
Only one course is open. Either we
will have individualism or we will
have combinations in restraint OF
trade going to that point where the
people will demand that the power Of
men engaged in such corporations be
transferred to the government and
then we will have state socialism.
Now we can disintegrate unlawful
corporations, and put them under In
junction. II they operate they must
compete.
Il know am speaking against the
trend Of many Of you, but ] can not
help It. The law is on the statute
books and must be enforced, and this
sitting Of competition and this con
trol Of Orices TnuSt Caase
Il didn't want to get into this dis
cussion. but want you business mer
to face this problem"
There was frequent applause dur
Ing the presidents remarks.
At midnight the president was TAX
on to the Shadyside Station of the
Pennsylvania Railroad where plans
had been perfected for his trip tc
