Whip HAND
TO BE HELD
over TRUSTS
some RADICAL LEGISLATION
To Be Recommended by Sen
ate Committee

Washington, d. c., Fe@ 21.-Ant:-
trust legislation of a radical charac-
ter is to be recommended by the seq
ate committee on interstate commerce
in a report early next week.
Amendments to the present laws
will be urged to take away from the
supreme court the discretionary
power" it now exercises in admins
tering the Sherman law, and to de-
dne clearly forms of illegal comb!-
nation, so that business interests viii
know when they are violating the law.
The report will be the termination
of the trust investigation begun by
the committee in 1911. The decision
of the supreme court that "only I'M
reasonable" restraints upon trade are
in violation of the law, forms the ba-
sis for radical sugges lions by the
committee to protect the antitrust
law against what it is claimed
amounts to Legislative action" by the
supreme court.
To enable business agents to un-
derstand what forms of combinations.
agreements, contracts or pools are il
legal, legislation will be urged to de-
fine them in exact terms. Members OF
the committee believe this necessary
to protect business interests that de,
sire to act without violating the law,
but have no legal standard to inform
them whether contemplated actions
are within the law. 1t is understood
that the report recommends the crea-
ton of a commission to exercise gen
eral control over corporations doing
business across state lines, and that
it urges amendments to the Sherman
law which will compel corporations 20
remain more Independent in charac
ter than at present, and that will en-
force competitive conditions.

not being anticipated, save by few
leaders of the anti-divorce crusade.
Reno today presents scene of min

subject of universal talk. Nevadans

spirited controversies in cafes, on the

WIRELESS SERVICE OF u. S.

All That's Necessary Now is For Completion of Ar

Found to Asia

Washington, D. c. Feb. 21-Arrange-
ments are being made for the estab
lishment of regular wireless service
across the Behring Sea between the
American and Russian governments
which will insure telegraphic commun
ication with Asia at all times, even ii
the event of interruption of cable SER
vice The projected service, taken IN
connection with the existing transA'-
Iantic radio service, completes the cir
cult of the globe by this means of COM
munication.
No new construction is required for
the institution of this service. The
Russian government already has a
wireless tower at Anadir, in Kama-
chatka, and the American govern
ment has a similar station at Cape
Nome, Alaska. There has been some
limited exchange of signals across tire
Behring sea between the towers, but
owing to the operators limitations
they have been unable to communi-
cate intelligibly, a difficulty which can
be overcome by the employment c.
operators who can speak both Russia ]
and English.
Probably the news service will be
conducted under the same regulations
as have been applied to the genera
commercial service of the governmn
wirless system.
