NEW YORK, Defy 32.—Maintenance
of the Sherman anti-trust law and
Federal control of corporations was
advocated to-day by John Hays Ham
mond, capitalist and mining expert,
before the New York Civic Federa
tion. Mr. Hammond, who spoke on
the subject, "Should the Sherman
Anti-trust I*aw Be Amended?” said:
"To remedy the potential evils of
tru»tn the Federal anti-trust law —
the Sherman act—waa passed in 1890,
but until the past few years it has
been In a state of innocuous desue
tude. %
“Unfortunately. It ha? been invoked
too frequently In recent years to
punish the offenders rather than to
prevent the offense. Its application
has been dentructive, rather than
conservative and constructive.
Capitalization Evil.
"T favor maintaining the basic
principle of the Sherman anti-trust
law until a new, substantial law
bhall be enacted to protect the inter
est* of the public against possible ag
gression on the part of the trusts.
"One of the most serious evil® re
sulting from ‘big business’ is ascrlb-
able to the overcapitalization of in
dustrial corporations, which results in
the enhanced cost of their products
to the consumer, since the cost of
production i» based not only upon the
actual cash invested, but also upon
the watered stock Issued upon the
promoters’ profits.
"The public doe® not so much ob
ject to paying prices which would al
low adequate earnings on the actual
financial Investment a® It does to be
ing charged upon the basis of over-
capitalization.
For Federal License.
‘This ls a strong argument in favof
of the enactment of a Federal incor
poration law—or of a Federal license,
which directly attains the same end-
having as one of its functions the
power to determine the amount ol
capitalization of Industrial corpora
tions We believe that certain classes
of industrial corporation* doing Inter
state business should be compelled to
Incorporate under such a law.’’
Mr. Hammond said he believed that
the Government should sanction busi
ness amalgamations (agreements, he
called them), and cited the fact that
independent coal operators through
the South and Middle West were los
ing money through competition.

PURSE GRABBERS— fli
Charming Ellery ls in Atlanta with
| his big band to begin a series of con-
i certs Friday night at the Auditorium-
Armory, after being Introduced in a
special performance at the' Star Mat
inee at the Atlanta Theater Friday
afternoon, given for the Empty Stock
ing Fund.
Mr. Ellery, his band, and two cel
ebrated Scotch singers will be on the
Star Matinee bill—a feature the like
of which never has been offered in
vaudeville. After the matinee Mr.
Ellery is to be the guest of honor at
a reception by the Atlanta Music Fes
tival Association at Hotel Ansiey at
5 o’clock.
The programs to be offered at the
Ellery concerts will be a careful se
lection of artistic and popular music.
Perhaps the most remarkable features
of the big band are Its instrumental
combinations, as heard in the peren
nial sextet from "Lucia." and that
equally popular quartet from "Rigo-
letto.”
The opening program includes "Wil
liam Tell Overture,’’ Mendelssohn's
"Spring Song," selections from
"Madame Butterfly,” and Liszt’s
great symphony, "Les Preludes."
The two Scotch singers, Thomas
Wallace and Bayne Young, tenor and
baritone, have been decided features
of the present Ellery concert tour,
their repertoire including operatic
work, ballads, and—especially In the
case of Mr. Young—humorous songs.
Tickets in advance for any per
formance may be had at the Cable
Piano Company and at Phillips &
Crew.
The only important change In the
new traffic law that will be recom
mended to Council Monday will be of
interest to the women shoppers who
drive their own automobiles. No
machine will be allowed to be parked
in the shopping district for more than
30 minutes at a time, but the section
of the bill as drafted by the Joint
committee of the Council and the
Chamber of Commerce prohibiting
the parking of machines on Peach
tree and Whitehall and several tribu
tary streets unless in charge of a
chauffeur has been stricken. This
provision was considered to be espe
cially discriminatory against women
who drive electrics.
Beaumont Davison, representing
the Whitehall street department
stores. Insisted that this change be
made, and that the parking limit time
be made 60 minutes. He said that no
woman could shop In 30 minutes.
The zone in which parking is to be
restricted was changed. On Peach
tree and Whitehall streets It ls to be
from Forrest avenue to Mitchell
stxeet. The eastern limit is Pryor
street and the western Forsyth street.
Thi® provision reduces considerably
the limit prescribed in the original
ordinance.
No street car will be allowed to
stand within the zone for more than
io minutes at a t)mo.
Tliese changes were made by the
rmanic Board, acting as a com
mittee of the whole, and Indication#
are that the ordinance will be adopt
ed a9 recommended by the commit
tee. .
