Chicago, March 1.-"Regulation of
industrial combination" was the theme
scheduled for discussion by many
speakers at conference of the West
ern Economic society which began
here today. c. W. Wright. professor
of political economy of the University
of Chicago, said:
I'VE should substitute a policy Of
discriminating regulation for the pres
ent policy of destruction, and enforce
competition
George w. Simmons of st. Louis de-
clared: IF there is any one ching
that is a curse to the business of the
country today it is that we have too
many lawyers. In the last congress
there were 212 lawyers and less than
so business men. We have a big bust
ness organization called the United
States of America. Why not have for
it business administration?
Professor Smalley of the University
of Michigan characterized the dissolu-
ton plans of the Standard Oil and the
American Tobacco companies as shams
and the judicial review of the eco
nomic questions an absurdity.
