When we In our gener- ation look upon the circumstances of America we must try to see the facts »s they are and to see them broad- ly. America is a business nation, a nation of material enterprise and commerce on a large scale. It is our duty, therofore, It we would heed the example of Washington and the men in his generation to ask ourselves what must we do for America as she is? “The cry of the hour scems to be that business has grown as formid- able in its independent organization as to have set itself up in rivalry to the government itself and that fit, therefore, must be regarded; that the whole force of government must be bent to the restraint of businees. [. venture to suggest that what we are really after is not the restraint ot business but the restraint of indi- viduals who are putting business upon a false and sclfish footing. We do not wish to hamper the great pro- cesses of our economic life but to free them where they have been made wronz use of by men who have ig- tiored the common interest and sought to promote their own private and celfish purposes by means tha: wern neither publie spirited nor hon- oruble. The rules that we now seek to ¢t up are that the men who are making uge of our corporation laws [tor their own advantare shall not cmpley them to establish mononoly: that they shall not nse them to limit - leredit to those whom they draw into ‘ © own enterprices; that they nall not if they do wrong find covert aspd concealent within the corporas iors whose power y emloy. ) s & (t of the resiraint of lwreones we chonld deal with individ- { als rather than with carnorations ‘It should be laid bare of whom busi- wwivt and thoese should be di- ind individually dealt with o+ a wrong is done cither to ar individual or to the freedom of Lusiness itself.
