THE mm MUSIC
Too many prosecutions of 'rusts b}
federal and state autfcarities an- now
under way for the average mind to re
ta.o them. and surely the press reports
give do indication t\o? many of the pro
ceedmgs liavf as >et resulted :n forciue
ol>ed:ei>ce to the la?. However, the
most effective of all government,
?schemes would seem to be the recent

neni of justice to seek in met ions re
straining all combinations alleged to Ite
acting in restraint of interstate com
merce under the Shernun law. An
other contemplated move is to pett'ioD
for the appointment of receivers to con
duct the business of such concern* in
harmony with the law and to -oil. ice
?heir trade arrangements to a lecal
basis. Thero c>n be no question ilial
with persistant etTort the government
can cause the civil law to be obeyed, as
it can and does prevent violence and
general chaos However, of late there
has been too much advertising of what
is to be done and but very little actually
accomplished U is all ngbt to go out
and punish the trusts whenever tiec.'s
sary and the point to keep prominently
in sight is to do it quickly, but what
strikes this paper as being wrong is that
there has all along bten too much briusa
band accompaniment for the hurrah
orowd of young lawyers who are after
the trusts and not enough funeral diges
for the trusts.
