The Sherman Nuisance

The Sherman antitrust law has
been on the statute books since 1890
"a period Of thirty-two years.
Il has been subject 10 countless in
terpreting decisions. Yet yesterdays
news from Washington attests that
what It permits and what il forbids
are still a deep and dark mystery.
The statute stoutly resists clarihea-
tien.
The Federal Trade Commission,
the Department Of Justice and Sam
uel Untermyer. in behalf Of the
Lockwood committee. have had the
recent steel merger under considera-
ton. and each has reached a differ
cnt conclusion as 20 whether or not
the law is violated. and, if so, in
what respects. The managements
OF the combining companies have
proceeded on the advice Of able coun-
sd. and. Of course. have sought TO
keep within the limits Of legality.
But nobody knows where is the bor-
der line. and the proceedings Of the
trade are merely exploring.
Considerably the Supreme Court,
after prolonged cogitation. fathers
voluminous opinion which in the way
Of decision on the issue before II
or in the way Of obiter dictd and
general comment is as opaque as the
famous opinion of Chief Justice
White in the Standard Oil case. AL
ready the debate as TO what labor
unions may do has begun again. and
most contradictory are the readings
wEich are heard.
We have law which no one is
able TO understand. Is it not time
to,scrap it and to substitute one all
can understand? The law should
surely define what conduct or form
Of organization is legal.
The vaporous Sherman law, whose
clucidation has but intensified the
foe. has never effectively stopped
any abuse; but II has done great
hahn 10y creating doubt and uncer-
tainty. Both large corporations and
labor unions are entitled to know in
advance the qualities Of their acts.
They do not now know this and can't.
Chief Justice Taft has entertained
the idea that ultimately the courts
would "work OUT an understandable
body Of doctrine. But at the present
rate Of progress this will take CEN
tury. Moreover. such working out
is highly Objectionable in that it inn
Apnes that the Supreme Court shall
Fhecome a legislative body.
The Sherman law is nuisance
which has been too long endured. 1t
Is a totem pole that Congress should
remove TO the museum Of legal an
tiquities.

Aerial Anarchy

There will be hearty approval Of
the action Of the Secretary Of War
in promptly dismissing from the Air
Service Reserve, in dishonor, the
egotistic ass who dehsntly drove his
airplane over the throng at the dedi-
cation Of the Lincoln Memorial on
Memorial Day. 1t seems almost in
conceivable that any person should
be so lost TO sense of decency as 10
make one Of the most solemn and
impressive ceremonials in the his
tory Of America the occasion for
smart Aleck" exploitation.
The Secretary Of War has done
much more, however, than to dismiss
the culprit and TO warn all other
members Of the service against sim
liar offenses. He has reminded the
President. and thus has brought II
20 the attention Of Congress ana the
whole country, that there is at pres
ent no effective system Of regulating
aviation. The army has It's rules,
but these do not apply TO civilians ;
and if there are state or municipal
laws on the subject there is no
means of enforcing them.
Aviation should doubtless be en-
coursged, both for pleasure and for
practical use. But this can be done

Slandering international Law

"The World" attacking Secretary
Hughes. has become 30 eager TO
serve the Bolshevists that it invokes
inetheir behalf the coldest and most
reactionary precept Of international

This is that, with respect 20 q

whether the candidate for recognition

from assassination, or fraud, or ex-

physical ability 20 enforce its man.

argument. It is left entirely out Of

But, though some juridicsl author
ity may apparently be cited in favor
of'the proposition that what sort Of
government a country has IS no

not true that international law
teaches that recognition automstical-

Sir: Anslyzing the preeepts OF the
oldtime penal code, II can be likened
TO the might makes right attitude

our Law is toward giving every man an
equal chance in llfe's battle. 30 should

ton Of evil is 10 be accomplished by

YOUR correspondent R. F. Foster. HIS
school is one Of fear breeding. whose
product is tho shifty-eyed ex-eonvict'
only too familiar to US in fae, ana

observed in dogs; on the one hand we
have the kind which slinks, tail be-
tween legs and suspicious OF every
human. on the other the one which
mas inspired our love for its kind
lcval. resolute and brave. The analogy
is perfect; we are different from dumb
animals only in degree.
In speaking Of free conversation At
meals mutual exchange OF valuable
criminal information is encouraged,
Mr.. Foster tells US. Granted. when each
penitentiary is packed with all types
Of eriminality. II segregation in dis
eases, why not in crime correction :
There is no excuse for the daily COM
partnership Of the hardened veteran OF
