Washington, Oct THE administers

in the senate when the conference re,
port on the Clayton antitrust bill was
agreed to by a vote of IS to "A. The
senate voted down a motion by Sena-
tor Reed of Missouri to recommit the
bill to conference.
Three Democrats voted against the
rercrt-Senators Lane, MARITIME and

Senator Poindexter. Progressive, voted
against the Reed motion and the mos
ton to agree.
The vote was taken at the end of a;
long day of bitter debate on the bin
In the course OF which Senator Walsh
referred at once to Senator Reeds at
tack on the measure and the latter re-
joined with even more vigorous criti-
cism. Senator Walsh declared the adj
mfnfStration commission bill had CON-
mitted congress to a policy Of proven
ton of minor restraints of trade by
the commission, instead OF criminal
prosecution of such offenses, Senator
Reed insisted the law would be utterly
ineffective without the teeth" which
criminal penalties would supply.
AS finally agreed to the bill forbids
price discrimination, limits interlock-
ing directorates and prohibits holding
companies where the effect is to de-
stroy or substantially lessen competi-
ton.
The bill also declares that "the labor
OF human being is not a commodity
nor article of commerce" and exempts
labor and farmers unions from the
operation of the Sherman antitrust
law. 1t reviews the law regulating con-
tempt of court and the use Of injunc-
tons in labor disputes, making reforms
long demanded by organized labor.

I'm facing the problem of Indus

ton is deliberately attempting to Crap
pie with what it believes to be the
most complicated and at the same time
the most urgent question of modern
times, and II is precisely for this rea.
son that the investigation has been in
stituted.
In no sense viii the investigation
be local or restricted or carried on
with particular reference to any exist.
ing situation or, for that matter, with
reference to conditions in any one
country. The experience OF the sew.
eral countries of the world will be
drawn upon.
In going to another country and
selecting as the person to have the
direction of this most important work
one whose public services have gained
for him an outstanding position as a
leading authority on industrial prob
lens, the trustees have shown their
desire to free the foundation from any
suspicion of interest or prejudice in
the investigation of the most contro.

A Useful Scout.

Here is good idea from the North. The Canadian Pacific has sent out a scout to travel over its system and dis cover employees who are deserving of advancement. Incidentally he will re- port those who are negligent of their duties, but his chief business is to find the good men.
 Big business concerns of all sorts could use this scheme to advantage. The undeniable fact that good service seldom comes to the attention of the heads of a concern, except through the favor of a sub-boss, has a deadening ef- feet upon the energies of men and women.
 Knowledge that attention to business is as likely to be reported as inattention would be a stimulus. And the concern would reap advantage not only in a better average of service, but in secur- ing for more responsible work men who are really capable. York Mail.
