THE MASTER PLUMBERS CASE.

THE MASTER PLUMBERS CASE.
The following editorial on the mas
ter plumbers case is from the Bur
lington Hawk-Eye:
The citizens of Burlington will read
with surprise and regret the Assoclat-
ed Press comment from Des Moines
that the federal jury in the case OF the
government, for violation of the
Sherman antitrust law, has brought
in a verdict of guilty against the thir-
ty-six indicted master plumbers,
among whom is Mr.. Charles G. Bosch
of Burlington. Mr.. Bosch is one or
our veteran business men, OF un1m-
peached integrity and good standing,
popular, publtc-spirited, an all-around
good citizen. To our citizens VINO
know the man SO well, the indictment
and trial will look like persecution
At the worst, Mr.. Bosch is only tech
nically at fault for violation OF a
statute whose scope and bearing Is
ill-defined and concerning which there
have been doubt and great diversity
of opinion among business men, attor-
neys and even in the courts for many
wears. Mr.. Bosch's relationship to
the association Of which he is men,
Der has been more perfunctory than
active and without intent to violate
law or commit any other act incom-
patible with good citizenship.
So vague has been the popular
conception OF the purport and detail
ed requirements of the antitrust law.
that on the showing made in. court at
Des Moines in this case 1t Is hardly
too much to say that many other
lines of business In Burlington, as
we'll as everywhere else In the Unit
ed States. have violated the federal
statute of similar character. Since
the inauguration of government ST.
pervision OF transportation, manu-
features, and nearly all commercial
and industrial activities, the conduct
| of business of any kind is becoming
more complex and difficult, with a
resultant of an increased cost of liv-
| ing. Business enterprises are ham,
pered, and an atmosphere Of doubt
and uncertainty obtains. Capital
and business talent hesitate. no one
knows Just what are the laws re-
uuirements; what is legitimate and
what unlawful This is a burden that
ought not to be imposed upon bust
ness. There is a rapidly growing
sentiment in the business world that
alleged reforms which originated in
political animus have been carried
too far, and that congress ought to
come to the relief by revising anti
trust measures whose interpretations
have puzzled learned Judges and led
to conflicting decisions and divided
courts The whole proposition needs
to be recast and adjusted to meet the
real necessities Of the public.

If Iowa legislation would assist
the natural wealth of the state there
would be commonwealth prosperity
that would make those people now
residing in California so homesick
they would walk all the way back
provided they couldn't get here any
other way. An increase of over
$16,00O,0O0 in bank deposits within
three months indicates conclusively
that If proper legislation will permit
the capital to go to work--well, We'll
have some state.

Mr.. Mann said:
81 appreciate the gravity OF the re-

China and Japan and Europe, and the
relations which they may bear to the

for this house and for the people OF
this country to place their reliance IN
the president of the United States.
''The president represents our coun-

president possesses, to endeavor to
interfere.
