Wilson Wants Trust Curbs , The President Declares Monopoly Is Indefensible and Interlocking Direc torates Must Go. President Wilson personally laid be- fore a joint session of congress on ! Tuesday the fundamental principles of the Democratic administration’s program for dealing with the trusts and “big business.” The president presented the case, he said, “as it lies in the thought of the country,” reiterating “that private monopoly is indefensible and intoler- able,” and declaring that conscientious business men throughout the nation would not be satisfied until practices now deprecated by public opinion as restraints of trade and commerce were corrected. “We are now about to write the ad- ditional article of our constitution of peace,” said the president, “the peace that is honor and freedom and pros- perity.” Besides suggesting the scope of legis- lation, the president made a personal appeal for an atmosphere of friendli- ness and co-operation in congress while handling the problem. “The an- tagonism,” he said, “between business and government is over. We are now about to give expression to the best judgment of America, to what we know to be the business conscience and honor of the land. The govern- ment and business men are ready to meet each other half way in a com- mon effort to square business meth- ods with both public opinion and the law.” : The chief points which the presi dent singled out as a basis for legisla- tion were: 1—Effectual prohibition of the inter- locking of directorates of great cor porations— banks, railroads, industrial, ! commercial and public service bodies. 2—A law to confer upon the inter state commerce commission the power to superintend and regulate the finan- cial operations by which railroads are henceforth to be supplied with the] money they need for their proper de- velopment and improved transporta- tion facilities. The president made it clear that “the prosperity of the rail roads and the prosperity of the coun: try are inseparably connected” in this regard. 3—Definition of “the many hurtful restraints of trade” by explicit legis- lation supplementary to the Sherman | law. 4—The creation of a commission to aid the courts and to act as a clearing house of information in helping busi: ness to conform with the law. 5—Provision of penalties and punish- ments to fall upon individuals respon- sible for unlawful business practices. 6—Prohibition of holding companies and a suggestion . that the voting power of individuals holding shares in numerous corporations might be re stricted. : 7—G@Giving to private individuals the right to found suits for redress on] facts and judgments proven in govern: | ment suits, and providing that a stat ute of limitations should run only from the date of conclusion of the govern: ment’s action. Big Dam Bursts, Flooding Valley. Residents of the Stony river valley, below Dobbin, W. Va., were sent into terrorized flight and much alarm was caused in towns along the north branch of the Potomac river by the bursting of the great dam of the West Virginia Pulp and Paper company. No loss of life has been reported, the people apparently having received warning in ample time to flee to hizh lands, but the destruction of property has been heavy. The great wall of water let loose by the dam swept everything before it in the Stony river valley and poured intc the Potomac at Schell, W. Va. At Harrison, W. Va. forty-seven miles west of Cumberland, the water rose to a height of thirty-five feet. The torrent tore down the Western Mary land railroad bridge washed out ths railway tracks and wrecked many homes. The loss to the railroad alone was estimated at more than $200,000. When the flood reached Blaine and Harrison it was sweeping everything before it. Piedmont and Keyser also suffered severely. Cumberland is more than sixty miles from the source of the flood, but all residents of the lowlands have been advised to flee from their homes. They carried their possessions to the hills. Cracks were discovered in the dam and the gates in the big concrete structure were opened to let out the water and lessen the strain on the weakened dam, whose breast was 1075 feet long and which held back more than 3,000,000,000 gallons of water.
