Gov. Wilson's Antitrust Bills

The next President has, as gov
ernor of New Jersey, drawn up seven
antitrust bills. Instead of indulging
in vague statements he has put his
ideas into statutory English, and the
seven bills will be closely studied in
all parts of the country.
The corporations flocked to New
Jersey because her policy has been
lax, having an eye almost exclusively
to revenue. No doubt the passage of
the seven bills will operate to drive
away from that state great volume
Of corporation business.
Under these bills all price-fixing
agreements by corporations would lead
to an annulment of charters, and hold
ing companies must hold property in
stead of stocks. One of the seven bills
defines and names a punishment for a
trust. All stock issued hereafter must
be full-paid stock. No corporation can
be used in restraint of trade or in
creating a monopoly. 1t would be a
misdemeanor to do any Of these
things.
Should Governor Wilson succeed in
pushing the seven bills through the
New Jersey legislature he will cer-
tainly lay down platform that no
one will misunderstood. The seven
bills are straightaway attack on all
trusts and monopolies and an effort
to restore competition and opportuni-
ty in at least one state.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-01-27
Home Rule for Ireland

The one risk that Ireland faces Is a
dissolution of the house of commons
before the home rule bill can become
law without the sanction of the house
of lords. The present house must
pass the bip three times and at least
two years must elapse between the
first introduction of the bill in the
house of commons and the date on
which it passes the commons for the
third time. The present bill was in
troduced in April, 1912, and it cannot
become law in opposition to the peers
until April, 1914.
The present bill calls for senate
of 40 members to be appointed for
the first five years by the imperial
government, and after that to be
elected by system of proportional
representation. The Irish house of
commons is to consist of 164 members
to be elected by borough and county
constituencies The Irish parliament
is to make laws for the peace, good
order and good government of Ireland
and it is not to deal with the larger
matters of government. The executive
power sin Ireland will continue to be
lodoed in the lord lieutenant and the
Irish privy council. Not little of the
finacial burden falls at first on the
imperial government. The representa-
tion Of Ireland in the imperial parlia-
ment is to be reduced to AZ members.
1t now stands at about 80 members.
The bill is just one, all things
considered, and fortunately no dissolu-
tion of parliament can now be fore
seen before the bill can become law.

The Burnett Immigration Bill

The clause which required an i'm
migrant from Russia, for example, to
produce any certificate of character
issued by the home government, was
stricken out, and the bill was then
passed as it came from the conference
committee. 1t introduces these
changes in the existing law:
. /. An increase in the immigrant
heed tax from 81 to $5.
2. Exclusion of aliens not eligible
for naturalization.
8. Adoption of a reading literacy
test.
1. Making it permissible. ior the
Secretary of Commerce and Labor to
decide beforehand as to the necessity
of importing such skilled contract
labor as now is admissible under the
existing contract labor law.
5. Providing heavier penalties for

law against advertising for immi-
grants and which bring to the United
States aliens who are ineligible to
enter.

Eleven Justices Instead of Nine

Senator Gore of Oklahoma is an
earnest worker who never deals in
mere oratory for oratory's sake. He
presents his views without much re-
gard to popular favor. He retains the
good will and support of his state be-
cause he is frank and outspoken.
He has begun a movement looking
to the addition of two justices to the
bench of the supreme court. He sees
no doubt the increasing number of
great problems that the court has to
wrestle with, and he no doubt thinks
that eleven justices could write more
opinions than nine could. The great
court promises to be overwhelmed
with cases as the country increases
in population and wealth.
Senator Gore cares little about the
fact that a democratic President would
name the two proposed Justices. He
considers the business of the court
and the prompt handling of its cal
endars. Congress is full of lawyers,
and they are well able to judge the
merits Of Senator Cores proposition.
They know the state of the calendars
in the court of last resort and their
decision will be accepted as sound and
deliberate.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-01-27
Industrial Activity

In the industrial world activity
continues. Several railroads have
just placed additional orders for pas
senger and freight cars and the As
sociated Press states that negotiations
are under way for Is additional cars,
calling for 100000 tons of steel prod
ucts. 1t is further stated that there
is more interest in fabricated struc-
tural steel in all sections. Among the
contracts pending is one for 10000
tons of plates and shapes.
General trade is in a healthy con-
dition and there has been a fair de-
gree of activity since the first of the
year. The outlook for spring bust
ness is very good, indeed, and it is
believed that the first half of 1913
will witness genuine prosperity.
There has been unusual activity in
the Birmingham district for the past
IL months and there are no signs of
the pace slackening. Birmingham
made a new high record in building
operations last year and the building
trades promise continuance of ac-
tivity.
While the iron market is somewhat
dull as compared with the activity that
was in evidence few weeks ago, pig
metal is still selling for good profit
and new buying movement is prob
ably not far off. On the whole 1918
will be year of great progress here,
especially if we have bumper crops
again next summer.
