Grain Dealers’ convention here by Mar
tin A. Knapp, chairman of the Inter
state commerce commission.
He began his speech with a reference
to Senator Foraker's talk before the
convention. In which he attacked the
anti-trust laws.
"I disagree with the .distinguished
senator who addressed you yesterday
upon the effect of criminal prosecution.
The only effective way to prosecute dls.
crimination on the part of the public
carriers Is by criminal punishment, the
same as for violation of the postal laws
or any other crime.
"There Is a greater degree of moral
delinquency on the part of the man who
will accept favors from the carrier
companies than In the case of the pick
pocket or chicken stealer, and I believe
the time Is near when this man will be
shunned. Discrimination should bo
placed In the category of crimes and
should be treated accordingly.”
