He described It as a method of at- [ tempting to regulate trusts and com- Dinations dealing in fruit products and explained the provisions of the bill in detall. “The government corporation pro- posed,” said Senator Norris, “will in feallly bs & gigantic middleman, which will aid both the producer of farm products and the consumer.” Kfforts to Regulate Fall. Senator Norris declared that this | country has for years spent huge sums in an effort to regulate the jrailroads and the trusts. | He said that these efforts have been a faflure and that the United States has expended enough money in at- temping to regulate the raliroads to purchase a large numbér of them. He added that in rpite.of laws to regu- late trusts, more of them ex.st to- day than in the past. The condition exiating in the country today he said is abnormal, and every one admits that it should be changed. | " The producer of foodstuffs ix losing mohey because of the cost of pro- duction and the small return he re- ceives.
