RULE OF REASON
CAN NOT PREVAIL,
SENATE ASSERT
Committee Says Supreme
Courts Ruling Is Dan
gerous to Interests of
United States

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The su-
preme courts so called modification of
the Sherman ant, trust law, to invoke
"the rule of reason" in decisions on
restraints of trade, is attacked in vig-
orous terms in a report presented to
the senate by the interstate commerce
committee today, which points out the
dangers of "uncontrolled and unguided
judicial discretion" and makes en-
phatic demand for amendments to the
Sherman law to remove from the courts
the power to determine what are
reasonable" restraints of trade
The report is the result of the COM
mittee's long investigation into the
operation of the antitrust law. The
committee recommends new statutes
to define exactly what combinations
are unlawful SO that both the business
interests and the courts will have a
standard on which to proceed 1t rec
ommends a federal interstate corpora
tion commission with power to super
wise corporations, pass on and approve
combinations and agreements and take
over the work of dissolving illegal
corporations.
Commenting upon the decision of
the supreme court in the Standard Oil
case. in which the rule of reason"
was called in, the report, written by
Senator Cummins. says:
The committee has full confidence
in the integrity. intelligence and patri-
otism of the supreme court OF the
United States. but it is unwilling to
repose in that court. or any other
court, the vast and underlined powers
which it must exercise in the admin
istration of the statutes under the
rule which 1t has promulgated 1t
substitutes the court In the place Of
congress. for whenever the rule Is In
voked, the court does not administer
the law, but makes the law. If it con-
tinues in force. the federal courts will.
SO far as restraint OF trade is con-
cerned, make a common law for the
United States, just as the English
courts have made common law for
England.
1T is inconceivabIe that in coun-
try that is governed by written con-
stitution and statute law that the
courts can be permitted to test each
restraint of trade by the economic
standard which the individual men,
bers of the court may happen to
approve

STANFORD CALLS
OFF BIC CANT:
WITH CALF F0RN|A
Devotees of Football Will
Not Believe Varsities
Really Mean All
They Say
by WILLIAM UNMACK

According to the announcement from
Stanford university yesterday, there
will be no "big game" this year be-
tween that Institution and the Univer-
sfty of California The announcement
came in the form of the abrogation by
the Stanford executive committee of the
intercollegiate agreement between
the two universities. The cardinal
camp has abrogated all that section OF
the intercollegiate agreement known
as article l, section J., which covers the
football situation.
During the week the University of
California student body voted to abro-
gate graph T OF the agreement.
which deals with the appointing of
football rules committee" Late
Wednesday night the Stanford execu-
tive committee put the finishing touches
on the drama by abrogating the whole
of the section dealing with football
TEXT OF CLAUSE
Article I. section 1, states that the
universities shall meet in football
games annually. and then goes on to
say that the games shall be played be-
tween the freshman teams as well as
the varsity teams. 1t also has special
clauses dealing with the places where
the contests shall be played the time
of year that the contests shall take
place and other such features.
The abrogating of this entire agree
ment'' necessarily does away with the
big game
The whole trouble arose over one of
the special amendment rules to the
laws of the game that We're made In
1901 by both universities. At that
time q clause was inserted which
states: ..'rhe officials of the game shall
be a referee. an umpire, If the captain
of either team desires one." etc.
CARDINAL WANTED UMPIRE
Neither university brought this "um-
pire'' clause into being until last year.
when Stanford claimed the right to
have an umpire on the field. To this
California objected, stating that in
their opinion, since the rules commit
tee had failed to meet. the rules had
lapsed Stanford held the view that
the rules were permanent and that it
was not necessary for the rules COM
mittee to meet. Stanford asked the
appointment OF the umpire. and that
among other things he be especially
