WILSON GRADUALLY
WORKING OUT HIS
ANTITRUST BILLS
Plans to Nationalize New
Jersey Statutes on
the Subject
COVER SUBJECT IN
SIX SEPARATE BILLS
1nterlocking Directors Will Be Taken
and Limit Will Probably Be
Placed on Capital of Inter-
state Corporations
BY c. e. STEWART

Washington, November 2.-(SpecialD
The President has been giving much of
his time of late to the preparation of a
legislative trust programme which will
be designed to add to and strengthen the
Sherman law, and also provide additional
statutes for the control and regulation
of trusts and corporations This pro-
gramme will be handled through the ju-
dietary committee of the House of Rep
resentatives, of which Henry d. Clayton
Is chairman.
The Presidents task is by no means
completed. but hardly day passes but
what he does not take the occasion to
consult with the House and Senate lead
ers, who happen to be now available in
Washington, upon the subject. The Pres-
dent will follow the plan which, accord
ing to his Impressions at least, proved so
successful in New Jersey, where he Sc
cured the passage of the so-called "seven
sisters" bills, and he will recommend the
division of the subject into number of
separate measures rather than handle it
in one bill. 1t is said upon competent au-
thority that there will be at least six
of these, and it is the present intention
of introducing them first in the House
and make them strictly administration
bills and enlist the full strength of the
party behind them, as far as possible,
perhaps through caucus.
Nationalize New Jersey Laws
So far as is applicable the President will
nationalize the New Jersey statutes. The
Sherman law will not be repealed, but
will be fortified by the new measures.
There will be legislation to more clearly
define what is meant by trust and to
make the officers and directors personally
responsible, under penalty of both fine and
Imprisonment, for their good conduct and
the acts of their firms. 1t is not decided
whether this will be offered as an amend
ment to the Sherman law or as one of the
separate bills, but 1t is regarded as most
probable that the later course will be
adopted.
There will also be an attack upon the
present system of interloclxing director
ates. The President will recommend that
greater safeguards and restrictions be
thrown around the participation, as direc-
tors, of individuals in more than one
bank railroad or industrial corporation
engaged in interstate commerce. 1t Is not
believed that he will go to the length of
suggesting that the practice of interock-
ing directors should be prohibited alto
gether, but there is a considerable sent-
ment in Congress that this should be done,
and 1t was particularly pointed out by
Samuel Untermeyer in the Pujo nvestiga-
ton that interloeking directorates were

Easiest WAY Out

A Louisville negro was caught with a
number of hides in his possession, for
which he could not reasonably account.
and was brought into court charged with
stealing, says the National Monthly.
Guilty or not guilty?" Numbered the
Judge.
mot guilty., emphatically responded
the negro.
Then how do you account for the fact
that you were in possession of two IS
bills when you were arrested. although
you are known to have been unemploye
for year?" demanded his honor.
"Jes let me relate the circumstance,
Mr.. Jedge-''
"And that three hides, of which you
claim to know nothing. were found hiding
in your cellar?''
II duno, jedge, but
."And that you We're seen coming out of
the tannery with three more?"
The negro scratched his head In silence
for a minute, then blurted OUT
'Lookey here, Mr. Jedge, If you is
gwine ter get so troublesome an so
quisitive bout this little matter, rs jest
pintedly gwine ter take back what I
said bout not guilty an make it guilty"

Limit on Capital
1t is understood that one of the Pres-
dents bills will be directed to the placing
of limit on the amount of capital for I'M
terstate corporations that may hereafter
be organized.
He will recommend that industrial or
producing corporations should not be al
lowed to own interstate railroads or
steamship lines.
The President has been urged ito sug-
gest the creation of a trade commission;
In fact, this feature has received very
favorable consideration by many con-
gressmen and senators who are studying
the trust questionable commission to
have powers over corporations engaged in
interstate commerce similar to the powers
now exercised by the interstate commerce
commission over the railroads. So far as
can be ascertained, however, the Presi-
dent has not committed himself to this
idea.
At any rate, it is safe to assume that
when Congress is ready to take up the
trust question the President will be ready
with his complete programme, and outside
of telling them what to do, and how to
do it. he will allow Congress to carry out
such trust legislative programme as may
occur to them.

The following resolutions read by Su.
oerintendent Frank D. Slutz of Pueblo
for Ira M. De Long of Boulder, chair
man, were adopted with no dissenting
vote by the Colorado Teachers Associa
ton at the Pueblo meeting. The COM
mittee which presented the resolutions
was appointed at the Denver meeting
year ago and includes school teachers
and Sunday school teachers, officers and
clergymen of practically every denomi.
nation. The amount of credit proposed
to be given for Bible study is approx.
mately what would be given for sim
gle prepared lesson every week for a
school year.
'The religious education of the boys
and girls who are in our public schools
$ a matter of unquestionable import
ance, and should be encouraged and
furthered in every legitimate way.
The Sunday school is historic in
,titution, backed by strong religious or
organizations, and exercising wide re
ligious influence over young people. Up
20 recent date. however, but little se-
rious effort seems to have been made
to set up acceptable standards of teach
| ing in it's work, or to secure on the part
Of the pupils any real preparation of as
signed lessons. If such improvements
can be made, the Sunday school is en-
titled to an honorable place among our
educational forces.
ave believe that closer co-opera.
ton between the public school and the
Sunday school would be Of mutual ad-
vantage, and might assist the latter in
becoming more efficient agency of re-
ligious education; and that such coop

eve therefore re commend that this

to elevate the standards Of denomina
