baeco Co, saying that when such
finding was reached as that handed
down by the supreme court in the To-
bacco Trust suit, a receiver should be
put in charge of the business. He
said his political opponents in both
the old parties propose nothing but
notifications of the present systems
of regulations of trusts and that no
such modification would change the
Tobacco Trust in a way which would
amount TO anything" His proposal. no
declared, was not to damage business
but to punish crooked managers of
business
I'm a case like that of the Tobacco
Trust" Col. Roosevelt continued the
government should at once put in Il
receiver to run it until everything
which it had been decided was wrong
had been done away with and esery
Objectionable feature removed Then,
| and not until then could the old own
ers come back And they would come
back with the knowledge that if such
acts were repeated they would suffer
