TRUTH ABOUT THE TRUST.
Expected Economies From combina
ton" Do Not MateriaIize.
[Louis D. Brandeis in Colliersl

ILouis ID. Brandeis In Colliers.l
Leaders of the new third term party
argue that industrial monopolies should
be legaliZed lest we lose the efficiency
Sf large scale production and distribu
tion. No argument could be more mis-
leading
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 at
tain the size of greatest efficiency, for,
while a business may be too small to
be efficient efficiency does not grow in.
definitely with increasing size. What
the most efficient size is can be learned
definitely only by experience. The
unit or greatest efficiency Is reached
when the disadvantages of size coun
terbalance the advantages. The unit
of greatest efficiency is exceeded when
the disadvantages of size outweigh the
advantages. The history of American
trusts makes this clear. That history
shows:
FirSt.-No conspicuous American trust
owes its existence to the desire for in
creased efficiency Expected econo
mics from combination" figure largely
in promoters prospectuses, but they
have never been compelling motive
In the formation of any trust. On the
contrary, the purpose of combining has
often been to curb efficiency or even to
preserve inefficiency. thus frustrating
the natural law of survival of the fit
test.
Second.-No conspicuously profitable
trust owes its profits largely to supe-
rior efficiency. Some trusts have been
very efficient, as have some independ-
ent concerns. but conspicuous profits
have been secured mainly through con
troll of the market. through the power
of monopoly to fix prices. through this
exercise of the taxing power.
Third.-No conspicuous trust has been
efficient enough to maintain long as
against the independents its proportion
of the business of the country without
continuing to buy up from time to
time it's successful competitors
