TRUTH ABOUT THE TRUST
Expected Economics from comhIna-

(Louis d. Brandeis In Collier,l.

A0Ouls ~. OTAQQCle IN OOdlleT u.
Leaders OF the new Third Term
party argue that industrial monopo-
lies should be lsgAliEed, leat we lose
the efficiency of lArEe-scale production
and distribution. No argument could
be more misleading.
1t may be safely asserted that In
America there Is no line OF business
In which ali or most concerns or
plants must be concentrated in order
to attain the size OF greatest en-
cheney. For while a business may be
too small TO be efficient, efficiency does
not grow indefinitely with increasing
size. What the most efficient size is
can be learned definitely only by ex-
perience. The unit Of greatest effi-
cheney is reached when the disadyan.
tages of size counterbalance the ad
vantages. The unit of greatest eff.
cheney is exceeded when the diszd-
vantages OF size outweigh the advan-
tages. The history of American trusts
makes this clear That history shows.
Ffrst-No conspicuous American
trust owes its existence to the desire
for increased efficiency. Expected
economies from combination" figure
largely in promoters prospectuses
but they have never been compel
Ing motive In the formation of any
trust On the contrary, the purpose OF
combining has often been to curb eff

cheney, thus frustrating the natural
law Of the survival OF the fttest.
Second-No conspicuously profita.
Bile trust owes its profits largely to
superior efficiency Some trusts have
been very efficient, as have some in
dependent concerns; but conspicuous
profits have been secured mainly
through control OF the market
through the power of monopoly TO fix

taxing power

Mother,s Only Chance

John, the twelve-year-old son of .
widely known corporation lawyer OF
Kansas City whose public life often
brings his picture in the daily press,
caused his father much amusement
and pride when he returned home from

his father the boy pointed to a picture
of himself printed in the daily paper.
Pa, guess I can get my picture
in the paper, too the boy proudly
said. Il won the first prize in the

The boys mother came up and
laughingiy said: Well, do not think
that is fair. Your papa has his pic
ture in the paper so many times, and
here you begin. What can l do to get

Hardness Of a Diamond.

1 carpenter runs his plane over a
piece Of wood and out come the pretty
cudly shaVings. Now, If plane is
made with a diamond blade instead OF
a steel blade, and the blade is set Just
right, the plane when run over glass
will turn out fine, thin shavings, some
thing like those made by a plane on
wood. This gives some idea OF the
wonderful hardness of diamond, yet
there is something harder than a dia-
nond; it is another diamond or even
the same diamond, for diamond may
be extra hard in one part and not so
hard in another part.
