our prosperous conditions. 1t

these words OF Woodrow Wilson
so shortly after his election =
There is absolutely nothing for
the honest and enlightened bust
ness men of the country 10 fear.
No man whose business is conduct
ed without violation OF the rights
of free competition, and without
such private understanding and
secret alliance as violate the prin-
ciples OF our law and the policy o.
all wholesome commerce, need
fear either interference or en-
barrassmnt from the administra-
