INTERROGATION
POINTS ERASED
Business TO Get Its "COnStltu-
tiOn Of Freedom"
WILSON SEES ROSY OUTLOOK
President Addresses Gathering OF
Editors and Assures Them That
Business Depression Is Passing

"A new constitution of freedom for
business is the object of the admin
istration's trust legislation program,
President Wilson declared, addressing
party of Virginia editors at the
White House. He predicted the coun-
try was on the verge of a great bust.
ness revival.
The president said that temporary
business depression at present was
sure to pass as soon as business
realized that the antitrust legislation
is sure to be enacted.
The president in his address said
II want to say to you that the signs
OF very strong business revival are
becoming more and more evident
from day to day.
ION all hands it is admitted that
there are processes of business or
have been processes of business in
this country which ought to be cor
rected, but the correction has been
postponed and in proportion to the
postponement the fever has increased
the fever of apprehension.
There is nothing more fatal to busi-
ness than to be kept guessing from
month to month and from year to year
whether something serious is going to
happen to 1t or not and what in par
ticular is going to happen to it If any
thing does.
"The guessing went on, the air was
full of Interrogation points for ten
years or more. Then came an admin
istration which for the first time had
a definite program of constructive cor
rectiOn. And the administration pro-
ceeded to carry out this program"
The president referred to the enact
ment of the tariff bill and currency
reform bill and the opposition en-
cOuntered to their enactment and
said:
Then we advanced TO the trust pro.
gram and again the same dread the
same hesitation, the same urgency
that the thing should be postponed.
1T will not be postponed. We know
what we are doing. We have been
fortunate enough to obtain the advice
of men who understand the business
of the country and we know the effect
is going to be exactly what the effect
currency reform was, a sense of relief
and of security.
Because when the program is fin.
ished 1t is finished. The Interrogation
points are rubbed out off the slate;
business is given its constitution of
freedom and is hidden go forth under
the constitution. And just as soon as
it gets that leave and freedom there
will be a boom of business in this
country such as we have never wit.
messed in the United States.
81 am friend of business and
servant of the country would not dare
stop in this program and bring on an
other long period of agitation. Agita-
tion longer continued would be fatal
to the business of the country, and if
this program is delayed there will
come agitation, with every letter in
the word capital"
