TALKS OF TRUST EVILS. Tells Senators How to Remedy Them—Defends Steel Trust and Talks of Carnegie, —— WASHINGTON,’ Nov. 2.—Governs ment control of corporations to protect public interests and insure stability of business, publicity of corporation af- fairs and loss Presidential politics were urged to-day by Elbert H. Gary, chatr- man of the Board of Directors of the United States Steel Corporation, as remedies for trust evils and business unrest. Incidentally Mr. Gary defended the Steel Trust, saying it was trying to do business in a thoroughly legitimate way. Ho added that the Steel Trust| officials would not think of doing what Andrew Carnegie and associates did and wnat they believed was right some years a9, Mr. Gary appeared v. the Senate committee on interstate | commerce which ts teas the question of additional trust legislation. Hoe declared that publicity would ac- complish most towards curbing the big | corporations; but that to Insure business | stability and the greatest development of industry, corporations must be per- | mitted to expand under proper govern: | mental control. COUNTRY FEELS UNREST OF COMING ELECTION. The Steel Mr said, had been at all times anxious to obey the law and desired only as fair treatment as was given to the con- sumer. “Equal treatment is all we ask,” he said, “There has never been a time that I have mot said: ‘Show us where we are wrong and we will get right.” Mr. Gary said there was ‘too much presidential politics in the country.” oluntarily before Corporation, Gary “Z would Uke to see the President | elected for eight years without an op- portunity for re-election,” he said. “In other words, put in such a position and frame of mind that he has no tempta- tion or inclination to look in any direc- tion or toward interests in reference to | his re-election. Mr. Gary added that he made reference to any individual” presidential suggestion. He said the country is already feeling the unrest of the coming election. “Dhe first great thing 1s publicity, said Mr,.Gary, !n opening his testimony | and talking on trust evils. “The great | corporation that 18 compelled to publish | its facts and figures and to live up to the requirements of the law will prove a great thing for the entire country." Mr. Gary declared that the United States cannot give up the big corpora- tlon or the big combination of capital. They aro necessary, he sald, if the United States is to maintain commer. clal supremacy and industrial equilib. rium, and the greatest public good will be secured by working out a system of Federal control that will prevent the misuse of the power of corpora- ‘no TOO MUCH MANAGEMENT THAT WAS WRONG. “In the last few years," sald Mr. Gary, “there has been much in the man- | agement of Kreat business affairs that | was wrong.

N THANKSGIVING DAY, from far and near, the members of the family gather for the annual reunion. After the hearty welcome home, comes the abundant feast, and then the remi- niscences—the recounting of incidents almost forgotten in the busy days of the past year. This is the day when we all longto be at home. With many of us in the busy city, however, time is so important that only at the yery last moment can it be known definitely that the journey can be made. Then it is the telephone to which we turn to carry the welcome message — the message that will give so much pleasure to the waiting family at the old home. mene sf The last moment, however, may find some of us comrelled by force of circumstances to remain at our posts far from the family circle. But the telephone brings comfort, even then, for greetings can be exchanged, and the voices and the laughter can be brought miles and / miles over the wires in all the kindly freshness of tone. Join the family group if you can, but if you can’t— there’s always the telephone. , NEW YORK TELEPHONE CO.
