MANY VIEWS ON
SHERMAN ACT

Some time ago the department of
the National Civic Federation having
under it's charge the subject Of the
regulation of industrial corporations
sent to a large number of editors, po-
litical economists, lawyers, publicists,
statisticians, manufacturers, mer-
chants, bankers and officers of com
mercial, labor and other organizations
a series of questions calling for their
opinions regarding the Sherman anti
trust act, the advisabilty of its re-
peal or amendment, the scope of gov
ernmental regulation of corporations,
the control of prices through a com
mission, etc. In response to these
questions answers have been received
from more than 10000 of those adj
dressed, and the expressions of opin.
ion thus elected have been analysed
by the Federation officials with some
interesting results, 1t appears that

quite incorrect impression concern

the New York Tribune. THAT it will
greatly shorten the sea route between
the two coasts of the United States
is obvious. So is it that it will bring
us into much more direct intercourse
with the west coast of South America.
But there has been notion eXtant
that il will offer few advantages to

Between Europe and the ports ui

Secretary Meyer declares that the

implication, the Secretary said that
the Democratic party lacked the cour-
age to achieve real economy by abol-
ishing needless navy yards which are
costing the government several mil
lions a year for maintenance alone.
"A navy for the nation and not for
local interests" should be sought, the
Secretary says pointedly
The statement further points out
that even with the continuation of
the acknowledgement program the
United States will fall behind, owing
to the deterioration of old ships, and
that the United States, by its enor-
nous coast lines and many insular
possessions, must have a strong navy

MERCHANT MARINE
AND THE NAVY

New York Post: Secretary Meyers
petulent scolding of the Democratic
caucus because of it's vote against new
battleships includes no argument OF
novelty or value. He speaks, for in
stance, of the extent of our coast lines
and the necessity Oh defending Ha-
wall, Cuba, and the Philippines. But
adequately to defend the latter would
require a tremendous feet with it's
base at Manila, one wholly Independent
of the squadrons intended to defend
the Pacific Coast. Nobody save few
wild navy maniacs has at yet seriously
suggested this, nor a special fleet to
defend Hawaii AS for the rest of
our great coast line, did we not have
it to defend from 1920 TO 1860 and
from 1870 to 1890, during which periods
we had no fleets to compare with Eng
lands of Frances or Russia's? More
over, as Mr.. Taft has himself pointed
out, the opening of the Panama Canal
will decrease the need for battleships
because of the comparative speed OF
transferring ships from one ocean to
another. AS for Alaska, what strate,
gist would think of defending this iso'
lated territory with bGttleships? What
could it be used for? Not as base
surely from which to launch an army

contention of all is Mr., Meyers bonn

the pure food law The order affects
hundreds of industries and thirty
classes of foodstuffs. 1t is regarded
as the most important issued since
the passage of the pure food law.
This order means an increase of 1907
0O0 tons of sugar per year in the con
sumption of the country
The steady advance in the prices on
Hawaiian sugar stocks for some time
past has not been based on any spec
ulative movement, but it may be at
tributed mainly to the trade condl-
tions which apply to sugar under the
law of supply and demand. For fully
six months past there have been lib
eral buying orders in this MARKET FOR
shares in the Hawaiian sugar com
panies, not alone from local capital
but from the Hawaiian islands. The
big interests of Honolulu have real
lied the situation and they have been
purchasing enormously on the local
Stock and Bond Exchange. In the
best informed circles both here and
in Honolulu there is a general belief
that there will not be any disturbance
in the sufar market for the next four
or five years as a result primarily of
the action of the Brussels conference.
Furthermore, the sharp advances
which the raw sugar market has been
showing for the last year or two com
bined with the extensive output of
the Hawaiian sugar plantations and
the steadily growing demand for the
commodity in all markets, make a
foundation for stability which is be
ing recognized by financial interests
generally. The Hawaiian sugar com
Ipanies have been paying regular divi-
dends. These are the factors which
Influence investors, and hence the lib
eral and constant buying Of these

As to the tariff, it is now reason
ably certain that there will be nc
changes recommended by the tariff
board, and this prospect has elimin
ated to a large extent the uncertainty
which has for some time existed.
