H. Gary, head of the United States Steel Cor- to] poration, testified (before Committee on Interstate Commerce to- day that he always believed that it was entirely legal for corporations to come together, mutually disclose their busi- ness conditions to steady and balance trade, without making any agreement on prices. to] He urged @ Federal commission au- 111} thorized to consider management, char- acter and extent of corporations and to permit certain when conditions warranted “No corporation can reach a perma- nent success In this country unless it Is willing to recognize at all times the P-| public interest and welfare,” sald Mr. Gary, He reiterated that business firms must be given some means of knowing what ja an “imreasonable restraint of trade” e they take any steps that might them Jable to Federal to ne te at er n= or make ry | prosecution.

Such agreements, ap- proved by the commission, and made with full publicity, would be in the pub- th) He interest, preventing business demor- alization “If the United States Steel Corpora- tion has not done business in a fair way, if it 1s not doing business fatrly now, I am willing to concede that there ought to be a law to compel it to do so," said Mr. Gary. ‘It was formed to do in a business Foremost Clothiers Since 1845.

Senator Pomerene asked If the cor- poration ‘had not been greatly over- capitalized when formed in 1901, “On the basis of the original cost of the properties involved, it was undoubt- edly’ overcapitalized,” said Judge Gary, “but on the basis of the actual values of these properties when the United States Steel Corporation was formed and the amount it would have cost to reproduce them, it was not « ized.” DENIES IT WAS A WALL STREET | EXPLOITATION. | Senator Pomerene asked whether the Steel Trust had been formed as the re+ sult of a financial combination, or to purposes of real benefit to the country’ inimical 1 bination realized a larg@ profit for their work and the risk tnvolved; I do not | deny ‘that there were those interested | in it for finanotal benefit; but ft ts not right nor fair, nor consistent with the y that it was in any way a xploitation.’ "" | Doctors’ Prescriptions. It has been proved over and over again that the doctors of this country ‘freely prescribe proprietary medicines in Latin for their patients until they are advertised to the public, after which time they consider it a duty to immediately co demn the very same medicine, not because the preparation is any less valuable, but because it is not “ethical” to prescribe: an advertised medicine. There are, however, many physicians of recognized standing broadminded and successful enough to con- tinue to prescribe such stand- ard remedies as Lydia E.
