Hoover Wants Change sa
In Antitrust Law

} Washington, Dec. 4-Liberaliza-
tion Of the Sherman antitrust law and
supplementary restraint of trade
acts" to enable ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
tions, as distinguished from capital
consultations, TO be legally formed,
/ is advocated by Secretary of Com
morce Hoover, in his annual report,
parts of which were made public To-
day.
Hoeyer's plan for legally sanction
| ing such cooperative ventures, togeth-
er with his arguments in its favor IS
set forth in his report, follows:
at has often been argued that the
original intent Of the restraint Of
trade acts was not to inhibit any sort
of economic collective action which
was an interest of public welfare, and
that the time has come when the act
should be limited so as TO leave free
all such action.
without entering upon debate rs
to the difficulties of such a course il
is possible to consider narrower field
of liberalization of law; that is, for
the law to be liberalized to the extent
that cooperative organizations gen
orally, as distinguished from capital
consultations, should be permitted TO
file with some appropriate govern
mental agency the plan of their opera
tions, the functions they proposed to
carry on, and the detectives they pro-
posed to reach; that upon approval
such of these functions as did not APP
parently contravene public interest
might proceeded with; that upon COM
plant, however, either of individuals
or the law officers Of the Government
that these functions had reacted
against public interest, then after a
hearing before some suitable tribunal
the right to continue these particular
functions should, if the complaints
are justified, be suspended.
"If thereafter these functions were
continued or if it should be proved
that the activities had been extended
beyond the functions in the original
proposals, the organization should be
likewise subject to prosecution under
the present acts. Parties who did NOT
wish to avail themselves of this privl-
lege could continue in the present
status.
"All who know the situation in such
matters will realize that the problems
of cooperative action are manly the
concern of the smaller businesses.
Such a measure as that suggested
above would serve actually to pro-
tect small business and thus to main
tain competition. Big business takes
care of itself Legitimate trade as
socations and other forms of business
cooperation would be greatly stimu
lated along lines of public welfare ii
such plan were adopted.
at appears to me that the time has
come when we should take cognizance
Of these necessities if we are to have
a progressive economic system. It's
growing compleXity, It's shift of OBJ
jective and service, require a determi-
nation based upon a proper sense OF
of long view competition,
business stability, and pub
lie interest"

WORDS OF WISE MEN

There is one pursuit in life which
it is in the power of all to follow and
of all to attain. 1t is subject to no
disappointments, since he who perse-
veres makes every difficulty an ad-
vancement, every contest victory
and this is the pursuit of virtue.
The fact that it is easier to do
right when others are doing it is one
reason for choosing good company.
We too often lose what is certain
while we are seeking what is uncer-
tain.
We can not vote right into wrong
or wrong into right
