Admits It Is Radical.

Mr.. Bristow admits that the proposition
for the appointment of a receiver for an
offending corporation probably will be re-
garded as the most radical feature Of the
bill.
But I am prepared to defend its wis
dom,'' Senator Bristow explained. IN
case a receiver is appointed for cor
poration. or joint stock association, II
becomes his duty to call meeting OF
the stockholders of the corporation, ana
they are required to determine whether
or not they will eject officers for the cor
poration who will conduct its business In
harmony with the law and the rules pre-
scribed by the commissions; and in the
event that the stockholders refuse to elect
such officers, then the receiver Is direct
cd to wind up the business OF the cor
pora ton and distribute the proceeds
among the stockholders pro rata, accord
ing to their several interests.
THE appointment of a receiver is not
to interfere with any criminal prosecu-
tions that may be determined upon.
Suits brought by the Department of JUS
tice or by the commission proceed as
usual but while these suits are pending
and dragging their weary way for years
through the courts the violations Of the
law will not be permitted to go on as
they do now They will be Immediately
stopped"
The commission is to be composed Of
seven members, to be appointed by the
President and confirmed by the Senate.
and serve for seven years. one going out
porations is 10 become a part Of the COM
mission.
Authority Of Wide Scope.
It's authority is to extend over every
person. firm. copartnership, corporation
or joint stock association that is doing
an interstate business whose gross re-
ceipts exceed $5.OOO.OO0 a year It's duty
is to investigate the financial conditions,
business operations and management of
all such concerns, and can require such
informal tion from them as it deems nee
esSary.
One section is aimed to prevent the
watering Of stock. and requires that with
In three years the water be squeezed out
of the existing overcapitalized industries
Another section limits the fees that may
be paid to promoters for merging small
er corporations into larger ones.
By another provision 1T is specified that
any contract combination in the form of
trust or otherwise, or a conspiracy in
restraint of trade is to be presumed to
be unreasonable and the burden of proof
is placed on the corporation or joint stock
association to show that the combination
or agreement is not an unreasonable re-
straint Of trade.
This is intended to remedy as near as
possible the evil which grows out of the
decisions of the Supreme Court in the
Standard Oil and tobacco cases. wherein
the report legislated the word reasonable
into the Sherman antitrust lad," Mr..
Bristow explained when he introduced the
bill
After making its Investigations it is
provided, the commission has the author
ity to submit the result to the Depart
ment of Justice for its action or to bring
suit upon it's own motion, either in It's
own name or in the name of the United
States.

Patterned After I. C.. c.

This is to be congressional comm1s-
sion of the same nature as the Interstate
commerce commission" Senator Bristow
said, land since 1t Is created to carry out
the policy and intention of Congress, ac-
cording to rules which 1t prescribes, II
seems to ME that Congress should nave
the power to remove the commissioners II
they fail to properly discharge the func-
tions of their Office. This proposed policy
may meet opposition because 1t is an IN
novation. but. in my opinion 1t is not only
reasonable b,t. desirable. 1t may be ar
gued that c, ..gress might act from par
tisan motives. as it frequently does In
determining contests for membership IN
its own body, but the bill provides tnat
the vacancy caused by a congressional re-
moval is to be filled by the President IN
the usual way. SO that while Congress can
create a vacancy ii can not fill it. That
duty is left with the President. which, IN
INV Judgment. would make removals for
r.artisan purposes improba ble.

Avoids clog Rolling"

Chairman Underwood of the ways and
means committee and his associates are
inclined to favor the same course as that
of last session. BY that procedure, 1t is
urged by it's advocates, LOG rolling" or
trading on rates on various articles could
be avoided.
The chemical schedule is one of three
or four that command the greatest in
terest. Democratic committeeman claim
revision. along the lines embodied in
the chemical bill Of last year would
save American consumers $17.00O,OOO
by reducing prices of all chemicals, and
at the same time increase the revenue
to the government.
The plan of the committee is to levy
low rates of duty upon nOn-com-
petitive articles produced in this coun-
try. especially the chemicals used in the
textile industry and chemicals and drugs
used for medicines.

STUDENTS OF PRINCETON
PLAN TOESCORT WILSON
PreSident-t0-Be Will Ascertain
Powers Regarding In
auguraI Parade.

TRENTON. y. J.. January 6.-Presi-
dent-to-be Wilson got up unusually early
today and was at work on his corre-
spondence before o'clock He had an
appointment for the afternoon with Rep
resentatve A. Mitchell Palmer. national
committeeman from Pennsylvania, whose
name frequently had been mentioned as
possibility for the cabinet. Mr..
Palmer was floor leader of the Wilson
candidacy at the Baltimore convention
On the way from Princeton this morning
Paul Myers. president Of the Woodrow
Wilson Club of Princeton University,
against talked with the governor about
the proposal that Princeton undergradu-
ates take part in the inaugural parade.
If Mr. Wilson wanted only small escort
Myers suggested that only the senior
class go; otherwise thousand under
graduates could march
That's mighty good commented Mr..
Wilson. He added that he would write
to Chairman Eustis of the inaugural
committee to find out just what his pow
ers were in the matter and would COM
muncate with the undergraduates as
soon as possible.

Protests Are Registered.


H. J. Krebs. president of the Krebs
Pigment and Chemical Company of New
port. Del, objected to the changes in
the tariff as proposed by the chemical
bill that was put through both houses
and vetoed. The same position was
voiced by r. A. Mccormick of Balti-
more. who objected to proposed changes
in drugs, barks etc. Louis l.. Brigham
of the Brigham Sheet Gelatin Company
of Randolph, VT, wanted relief from the
present chemical tariff. saying it was
not scientifically adjusted.
He held up specimens Of his own and
foreign gelatin and protested that there
was paid today just as much duty on
raw materials as for the finished prod
uct He contended that that put him on
the same basis as the foreign gelatin
manufacturer. He thought that about
double the present duty on the finished
gelatin product would be fair in the pro-
posed tariff
Discusses Dye Rates.
T. f. Schoelkopf of Buffalo followed.
He said the proposed reduction of the
duty on coal tar dyes or colors. of which
about 100000 worth annually are
brought in, from so to 1Sls per cent would
operate unjustly to the American manu-
facturers.
rs there any other difference in cost
between you and the German manufac-
turer except as to labor?" asked Chair
man Underwood.
Yes. the cost OF materials and cost of
freight"
Mr.. Schoelkopf was put through a quiz
zing course by the committee. Mr.. Tn
derwood drew from him that he regarded
his total labor cost as % per cent of the
cost Of the finished product. and that If
the coal tar dyes or colOrs came in free
he still would have to pay virtually IL
per cent duty because of the freight
charges, etc, from the custom house.
This is q trust-controlled product?
yes so far as the patents are con-
cerned.'
Some Patents Expiring.
The witness said that while a number
of patents on coaltar colOrs and dyes
were expiring. there were many yet con-
troIled by patents held by two big Ger
man companies.
"Then," said Mr.. Hill. 'the effect of the
proposed reduction would be to give alb
solute control of these products in this
country by trust syndicates to the detri-
ment OF American enterpriSe?
Mr. Schoelkopf asked the committee to
per cent dutyy because of the freight
yalorem on coal tar dyes or colors and
of 20 per cent ad valorem on all other
products or preparations of coal tar, not
colors or dyes and not medicinal, stand
unchanged. He agreed to open his books
to the committee II nedd be to show the
profits of his company.

Most of the democratic majority of the
present ways and means committee will
go into the next Congress. which is to
convene in extra session probably between
March II and early April. When the
tariff hearings are ended democrats of the
committee will devote themselves, in daily

tions, the new tariff rates from acids to
zinc, the expansion of the free list
and so on, will be formally passed
upon at a caucus of the repre-
sentatives of the new House, to be
called soon after the opening of the ex-

because the exposition is to be held
in honor Of a great present day
achievement that Importantly affects
the entire world. They realize that
those countries which first grasp the
full meaning of the canals rc-char,-
ing of the Commercial Map of the
world will reap untold advantages
and that the exposition will give them
their opportunity to read the canals

opportunity for the display of their

1t is not for commercial advantage
