BIG BUSINESS
GARYS PLEA
Head of Steel Corporation on
the Trust Problem.
POINTS WAY TO SOLVE 1T
Unrestrained Competition In United
States viii Result In pestruc-
ton OF Weaker individuals,
He Says.

Wahsington.-Elb II. Gary, eXecu-
tive head of the United States Steel
Corporation made plea for big busi-
ness" before the Senate Committee
on Interstate Commerce, which is
searching for solution of the present
trust problem in the United States.
Big corporations are essential to the
development of the country and the
maintenance of business prosperity,
he said.
AS curb for the trust evil Mr.. Gary
offered the following plank:
Federal license of corporations, re-
quiring full publicity, preventing over
capitalization and discrimination in
cases between persons and localities.
The creation of corporation COM
mission with power to grant, suspend
and revoke Federal licenses subject
to right of appeal to a court.
The corporation commission to have
power to decide questions submitted
by managers of business organizations
who desire to avoid illegality in their
actions, and to regulate prices as far
as necessary to prevent monopoly and
restraint of trade.
For example," said Mr.. Gary, "if
prices should be established by trade
agreement, or if raw amterials, such
as cotton or tobacco, should be pooled,
or if patents should be used to the
public detriment, this commission
should be empowered to establish
maximum prices for the goods thus
controlled"
Purpose Of Gary Dinners.
Mr.. Gary said the Steel Corpora
tion had been accused of making
agreements to restrain trade and in
crease prices. 1t had never done more,
he said, than to try to expand trade,
maintain fair prices, steady the mar
ket and prevent wide fluctuations.
This had been the purpose of the So
called Gary dinners and the confer
ences among steel men.
But now, with these dinners and
conferences mentioned in the govern
ment's bill of complaint filed against
us, am afraid of mourning public dis
pleasure if l do anything to maintain
the equilibrium of prices" said Mr..
Gary. MANY manufacturers are now
selling below cost, and if the situation
continues they will go into bank
ruptcy.
I'VE wouldn't think of doing now,"
he added, what Mr. Carnegie and 9TH
ers would have done IL years ago and
would have thought it perfectly right
to do"
The witness declared that there can
be no return to unrestrained competi-
tion in the United States without the
destruction of the weaker individuals
and companies by the greater ones.
He declared that publicity was the
remedy to accomplish the most good
in regulating the big combinations.

WOMEN in MASONRY

consent is an old one. 1t is the plea
that whatever is is right and that all
attempt at reform is wrong Such OBJ
jections have been raised through all
ages. dating from the time when the
Pharisees objected to the preaching OF
Christ in Palestine
Furthermore, the feminist move
ment cannot be ignored. Looking
back on the events of the last few
years it can be seen how disastrous
has been the absence of a policy as
regards this movement, and the re-
suit has been a course of events of
which no nation can be proud. Such a
position is not one that Masonry can
afford to risk To exclude woman as
a sex is to court early disaster, so let
us be beforehand and welcome her
gladly"
And you find that women keep the
great secret perfectly?"
Perfectly" replied DR.. Cobb. The
secrets of Masonry cannot be told"
