PLANS SEGREGATION,
 NOT DESTRUCTION

NEW YORK, Jan. 22. - The New York Herald presents from an official source an authoritative statement of the Administrations aims in dealing with "big business" The Administra' ton does not wish to use the Depart ment of Justice as crushing machine. It does not believe in the disintegra- ton as applied to big business. It be- lleves in segregation. It does not want to break corporations apart in a way that will destroy any lawful business. It hopes to accomplish through the medium of publicity and enactment of legislation such as that against interlocking directorates. Bills already introduced embrace these features. They will prevent trusts from controlling several branches of industry, as the Steel Trust controls first mines, then furnaces, then roll. ing mills, and so on.
