The president, in pointing the way to legislation on specific phases of the trust question, intends to _emphasize the necessity for a friendly spirit in congress in approaching the task. He wishes the business men of the coun- £y to be assured of the administra- tion's intention to welcome suggestion and common counsel and to afford those affected by the proposed legis- lation ample tome to adjust them- selves to the new laws or condition: In line with this attitude the presi- dent favors public hearings on the adminstration bills when ' they are prepared.
