Century, v. 79, p. 748 (Mar.). “It needs no argument to show that the Sherman law denunciation of ‘every contract and every combination’ is too broad. . . . Many propositions for amending the Sherman law have been made, all aimed at the same
result. . . . But every such proposition yet advanced has been found, u on careful study,
to be defective. . . . The res t is the conviction on the part of the Administration that the better way would be to leave the Sherman lawtas it is, and by a new piece of constructive,

He had ar ed more cases than had been customary or an Attorney-General in recent firs, and said he thought it might have 11 well had he tried even more. . . . To my mind, Mr. Justice Mood '5 advice was thoroughly sound. Our preme Court possesses greater power and enjoys higher dignity than any other tribunal in the world, and the chief law officer of our government is appropriately employed when he defends beore it in person the great common in terests of the American people." Of his experience in attempting to enforce the Sherman act, Mr. Bonaparte says: "In general I expected more satisfactory results rom civil t an from criminal proceedings. I was, and am still, convinced that the present method of attempted control through the courts over our vast aggregations of capital is altogether too cumbrous, dilatory, ex pensive and uncertain to be satisfactory, and that some time we must substitute for it a system of administrative control at once fair, simple, summary and drastic.

Knew of conditions in Congress, a construc tion of the existing law must be obtained which might lead the ‘interests’ to accept and even welcome the change. I hoped this might be, perhaps, the outcome of certain equity suits I caused to be instituted, notably those against the Standard Oil and the Tobacco Trust."

(Feb). "Three facts are to be noted in regard to the relations of the labor unions and the federal Anti-Trust law. First, nothing in these cases indicates that the union itself is illegal, but the inference is that through the union organization and agencies a con spiracy or an action in restraint of trade can readily be fostered. Second, in the applica tion of the Sherman Anti-Trust act to labor unions in the two groups of enterprises, manu facturing and transportation—productive and distributive-the courts have made it appli cable to any union, whether intra-state or interstate, which directly and specifically afiects interstate commerce to restrain it. Third, the logical and consistent holding, by the courts, to the general principles of interpretation of the Sherman act, already outlined, allowed of no other result in these
