Editorial From LABOR

Now that the nation is again in war
emergency, Big Business is again demanding
that the antitrust laws be suspended" That
demand was made few days ago at secret
meeting of so of the country's biggest indust-
rial and financial "tycoons".
The meeting was held behind closed doors
at the swank Sea Island winter resort in Geor-
gia and the demand was presented to Secre-
tary of Commerce Charles Sawyer and other
high government officials who attended the
conference"
The ndustrialists and financers are mem
bers of the Commerce Departments Council
of Business Advisers, an organization of priv
ate businessmen. Sawyer, who is very con-
sentative gentleman did his best to clamp on
the lid of secrecy, but some news of what
went on behind closed doors leaked out
In addition to insisting that no excess
profits tax be levied on corporations the ty-
coons demanded that there be no enforcement
of the antitrust laws during the present war
and defense emergency Big Business
men, they said, should not be bothered by
charges of price-fixing and monopoly while
they are producing for war and defense.
Exactly the same argument was made by
spokesman for big corporations when the
second World War came along. and high
army and navy officers joined in the demand
for "Suspending" the antitrust laws So the
two enforcement agencies-Justice Depart
ment and Federal Trade Commission-wer
told to clay off,, and the laws against mon

SUSPEND ANTITRUST LAW?

opoly and price-fixing were a dead letter
til after the war.
The same thing happened in the great de-
preston of the 1905, the other emergency"
which this country faced during the past 30
years.
Big Business said it could not fight the de-
preston if it also had to fight prosecutions
under the antitrust laws. So the Justice De-
partment and the ETC were told to clay off,.
They did so, until shortly before the Second
World War began and then they were told
to clay off" again
Now Big Business is for the third time de-
manding "free hand, which means freedom
for monopoly and price-fiXing
What good are the antitrust laws, if they
are suspended" every time any kind of an
emergency comes along, are briefly and in
effectively revived between emergencies
and then become a dead letter again?
Are not the antitrust laws needed most
during an emergency, when Uncle Sam is
spending billions of dollars for war, depres-
sion or defense? That's when monopoly and
price-fixing cost American taxpayers most,
by boosting the cost of everything the govern
ment buys.
Isn't it ridiculous for Uncle Sam to pour
out the peoples money to big corporations,
with one hand, and with the other suspend"
the laws protecting both the government and
the people against the monopolistic greed of
those same corporations?
We hope Congress and the Administration
won't let it happen again in the present war
and defense emergency.

Tor M urrdy 5 Statement.
My attention has been directed to
certain statements made by Forrest
E. Cooper, Lakeview, Oregon, before
the Commissioners meeting in Hell
ena, November 20, which indicated it
is his belief there is nothing in exist
ing law to guarantee power from the
Hungry Horse project for use in Mon
tana.
1t is clear Mr.. Cooper is badly mis-
taken. Public Law 329, 18th Con-
gress, End session, which provided
for construction of the Hungry Horse
dam, provides as follows:
'Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the
United States that for the purpose
of irrigation and reclamation of
arid lands, for controlling floods,
improving navigation, regulating
the flow of the South Fork of the
Flathead river, for the generation
