WILSON DEFENDS
ANTITRUST LAWS

Trenton. N. J., Feb. 22-Honest
business and honest men have nothing
to fear" This is the assurance Prest-
dent-elect Wilson gave in a lengthy
statement explaining the enactment
into law OF the seven antitrust bills
which he has signed.
Those who would engage IN ths
heartless practices of running rivals
and filching from the pockets OF tho
people more than they ought reason
ably to demand" said the governor.
"are the only ones who will have cause
to regret the enactment of these meas
ures. predict under them the people
of New Jersey will enter upon a new
era of prosperity. I congratulate the
legislature and the people on their
passage. These laws mark a new era
in our business life.
Senate bill No. 43, the act defining
trusts and designed to promote free
competition and commerce in all class
es of business, makes it criminal to
make an agreement which directly or
indirectly precludes a free and unre-
stricted competition. 1t was
urged upon the legislature that the bill
be amended by adding the word know
ingly,' so that 1t would read that any
person or persons woh willfully and
knowingly makes an agreement in re
straint of trade should be punished.

law that there must be guilty mind

me that this affords ample protection
to any honest man.
''It has been said in some quarters
that these laws will help big business
and hurt the small dealers. That is,
of course, not the intention and it can
not be the effect.
"The salutory provision OF the act
defining trusts is that it makes it un-
lawful to make any agreement, direct
ly or indirectly, which will preclude
free and unrestricted competition in
business. Monopolies have too often
accomplished by indirection what they
could not do directly. The holding

MANY NEW YORK
BROKERS SHORT
ON jim BUTLER
CHRONIC SHORTS ARE FORCED
TO DIG UP TO SECURE
STOCK FOR DELIVERY.

That the New York brokers are
short on Jim Butler stock and are
being forced to disgorge in order to
secure the stock is the opinion of
the New York Mining Age. The
Spectator, writing in that paper
has the following to say regarding
the sudden rise of this security:
The recent advance in Jim Butler
for instance has caused severe losses
to those who were short of stock at
about half the present market prices.
These chronic shorts have had every
thing their own way for so long that
they regard it almost as a personal
affront that Jim Butler should behave
in the way it has. There is likely to
be a recurrence of the trouble that
caused an adjourned meeting of the
Tonopah crowd to the Curb associa-
tion offices some months ago. There
is not enough stock to go around
and either there will be big "buy.
in" fest or pairoff-match. The
shorts have been waiting for a slump
in "Jim-ada But" to save a slice OF
two of their bacon, but it would ap
pear that they will have TO walk uI
to the trough and disgorge some oi
the gains they have piled up in the
last three or four years Probably
this lesson may do them some good
showing them the error of their
ways, but | fear some of them are
destined to live and die chronic bears
The market can't go one way all th'
time.
