The bills, drafted as result of the
conferences between Chairman Clayton,
Representative Carlin of Virginia,
chairman of the trust subcommittee,
and Representatives Floyd of Arkan-
sas, Mccoy Of New Jersey and others,
cover these three main points:
1-Interlocking directorates.
2-Trade relations and prices.
3-Injunction proceedings and dam
age suits by individuals.
Criminal PROVISIONS.
In every instance President Wilson S
idea of providing penalties for indiyid-
uals as well as for corporations in cases
Of violation has been followed. II was
decided that it would be better to draft

the Sherman act. An attempt TO define
combinations and conspiracies in re-
straint of trade as far as possible has
been made in the bills already pre-

The bill TO inhibit interlocking drec-
