AFTER MONOPOl|ES
ONLY, SAYS WILSON
President Explains Proposed
Trust Legislation and
Gives His Views

Washington, January 9e.-Nothing in
President wilson's trust legislation
programme against holding companies
will be intended to bar anything that
10 not in nature and spirit a mon
opoly.
President Wilson today indicated this
when in discussing the situation, it
VAS pointed out that a sweeping pro-
hibition of holding companies would
naturally affect concerns which had
been required to organize subsidiary
companies TO comply with certain state
laws.
The President let it be known that
where such a business was being car
ried on by practically the same cor
pcration there would be no restriction
on 1t
He emphasiz IS the governing prin-
ciple that corporations organized and
merged with others for purpose of in
creased receipts, purposes OF monopoly.
or purpose of restraint of trade, would
be clearly barred and that those which
obviously did not interfere with in
terstate commerce would be let alone.
The purpose of the administration
would be, the President declared, to let
things grow that grow naturally and
legitimately.
With respect to the proposed inter
state trade commission the President
cleafed up various impressions once
vdGne by saying it would not be
administrative body but one of pub
liciEs concern and information. He
said, ii would have no possible conflict
with any other government depart
merit.
The President does not believe the
commission should give publicity to the
legitimate methods of business of any
corcern of which rivals might take ad
vantage

AWAIT RESULTS OF SENSATIONAL MOVES IN STATE SCHOOL CASE
AUDITOR cAlLAeHAN EXPECTED
 TO ANNOUNCE TODAY HIS FINDINGS IN INVESTIGATION

PHOEN1X. March 13.-Phoenix is on the quivive for news from Fort Grant. where Auditor J. C. Callaghan is conducting an investigation of the ugly rumors concerning the state in. dustrlal school. He Is not expected back before Saturday afternoon, at the earliest.
 Callaghan left for the school armed with an opinion from Assistant Attor- ney General Leslie Hardy confirming his contention that he had a right to question both the inmates and em- ployes of the school without Superin- tendent W. NJ whipple or his attorney being present.
 D There seems to have been com plete misunderstanding between the auditor and Governor Hunt and Chas. R. Osburn. the other member of the board of control. regarding the man. ner in which the investigation should be conducted
 Callaghan was delegated to make a public investigation" It was stipu- lated that Whipple should be present and that he should be represented by an attorney if he chose.
 The auditor left note at Whipple's hotel. stating that he would be at Fort Grant the next morning to commence gathering evidence. He denies abso- lutely that he ever had any intention of beginning the public investigation the next day. He merely wanted to gather evidence. the same as a grand jury hears evidence before bringing a true bill.
 Whipple arrived at Fort Grant on a train accompanied by his attorney , He insisted on being present while Rockingham questioned the employees Callaghan claimed that if Whipple were present the employees. who are under his direction. would be embar' rassed. In short Callaghan declared that the presence of the superintend' ent would hinder him in getting at the truth.
 Callaghan returned and put the mat ter up to the attorney generals office Tn a written opinion the assistant at tornev general upheld him in all his contentious.
 Immediately Callaghan left for Fort Grant. He did not forget to take along the Hardy opinion.
