Mason Scores Effort
To PIT Small Firms
Against Big Ones
By Donald B. HodIey

The effort to pit small business
against large business is one o1
the most dangerous things today
and threatens to obStruct the
proper administration of regula-
tory laws, declared Lowell B. Ma
son, member of the Federal Trade
Commission, yesterday.
Speaking before the distribu-
ton luncheon of the United
States Chamber of Commerce in
the Hotel Washington, Mr.. Mason
declared that no difference be-
tween big and small business is
recognized by antitrust statutes
yet there is an increasing effort
within the administration to Gre
ate a difference.
Il find it difficult to decide what
is a small business and what is
big business" he said. What
kind of measuring stick can be
used. This effort to create a di-
vioing line only adds to the diff
cultieS Of fair regulation.
If you want to stay out of trou-
BILE with the Government, ad-
wise you to leave out of the name
OF your company any word that
might indicate success.
IF the economists who believe
that bigness in itself is bad have
their way, you had better put
words to indicate littleness or
humbleness in the company
name"
Attacks SEC Levy Plan.
The Securities and Exchange
Commission proposal to levy
charges on brokers and dealers
violates a fundamental principle
of our form of government and is
"of doubtful constitutional va
lidity." declared Richard H.
Crooks, chairman of the Board of
Governors of the New York Stock
Exchange, at a hearing here
today.
Testifying before a House COM
mlttee, which is studying the
plan, Mr.. Crooks said that the
$50 registration fee" which the
SEC seeks to impose, as we'll as
the $40 head tax" on certain
classes of employees, actually are
taxes. rather than charges for
services rendered.
The power to tax has always
been invested in the House of
Representatives. and for Congress
to delegate this power to an ad-
ministrative agency not respon-
Sible to the electorate would be
departure from fundamentals, he
said
