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.

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."
