llloAent that we have not enough
sense in the United States to reform
our corporation laws, differing as
they do in half hundred states. The
time has come when no corporation,
great or small, should be allowed to
do any interstate business whatso-
ever until it has complied with rules
and regulation setting national
standard at least as high as the
corporation laws OF England or Of
the state of Massachusetts,. A step
of this kind would remedy great
part Of our existing business troubles.

OUR NATIONAL CORPORATION
LAWS.

T .
A service Of vast Importance is be.
ing rendered to the country at the
present time by the senate commit.
tee on commerce, in its hearings up
on the whole subject Of the regula-
ton and control Of large business
enterprises. Senator Cummins OF
Iowa is chairman Of the subcommit-
tee that is conducting these hearings.
Senator Clapp OF Minnesota is chair
man Of the full committee. The
Sherman Antitrust law, as it now
stands and as it is interpreted by
the courts, is protective neither Of
big business nor OF little business. 1t
has smashed the Tobacco Trust, but
it has afforded no satisfaction or re
lief to the smaller competitors of
that trust who were instrumental in
having the suit brought. No one
need fear that the small business
man, or the plain citizen, would
suffer anything even from the abso-
lutte repeal of the Sherman Anti
Trust law. It will not, of course, be
repealed in any case without the
substitution for it Of something that
would afford a vastly better protec-
ton to every citizen and to every
kind OF legitimate business enter
prise But even il it were repealed
with no federal law to take it's place,
there is reason for the view that ev-
cry one needing protection or remedy
would find himself as safe under the
common law as he is at present IN
der the so-called Sherman statute.
1t would be absurd to think for a
