American Socialists want busi
ness further concentrated in the
hands of a few. They, too, are
using the war effort as an excuse.
They know from history when
business control is closely con
centrated it only takes one eco
nomic crisis; one session of a hys
terical or “left wing” legislature
to nationalize, or socialize, indus
try. This has been the pattern in
all nations where Socialism has
taken over.

This background of a current
fight to squeeze out the American
middle class is useful in analyz

battle. They will be bitter.
Not only does small business ■

all who believe in the American
system have as big a stake in

’’BETTER STOP" BEFORE YOU GO’’

Here’s the background of battlel
on the Potomac to set aside anti-1
trust laws as an emergency!
measure. You’ll be hearing a lotj
about it. < /
Opposition to this move^isl
hampered by lack of understand-!
ing today by the general public!
of the term “anti-trust.” j
* * * . —
i Around 1900 when the first anti- ?
trust laws were passed, a “trust”^
meant any industry group, mo-|
nopoly, or cartel, that conspired!
to artificially control a commod-S
ity, or to fix prices so that mem-|
bers of the industry would not be W
in competition with each other^
Anti-trust laws are not anti-bigß
business, although a great effort.l
has been made to sell this ideay
to the public. Anti-trust laws areM
merely rules so any business has fl
i the opportunity to get as big as?l
it can. “Anti-trust” merely means 11
“anti-leadpipe cinch.”
I During World War II a*nti-trustj
। laws were suspended. The Amer-|
’ ican free competition system has!
I not yet recovered from this blow.!
** * I
i Congress knows that in 1940 j
' 66% of American manufacturing
was done by 15,000 firms; today
only 250 firms do this volume.
i Senator Herbert O’Connor, Md^
■ states “in 1946 1/10 of 1% of
American corporations owned
: 50% of total corporate assets...
। 8% owned 90%.”
F “Unless anti-trust laws 7 are
' suspended,” says one side, ' “In
' dus try cannot get together on vot
। untary allocations of scarce nia-4
terials without violating the law."^
