TWO BIG ISSUES,
SAYS COLLIER'S
The Tariff and the Proper Treat
ment of Monopolies.
WONT TIE TO ROOSEVELT
"Actively Disagrees" With His Visws
About Trusts and "Wastes of
Com­
petition" and Supports the
Candi­
dacy of Wilson and Marshall.
Collier's is out for Wilson and Mar
shall. It refuses to support Theodore
Roosevelt, plus George W. Perkins,
Elbridge H. Gary and the rest of the
steel trust-harvester trust magnates.
Its open opposition to the third term
ticket was indicated in thq issue of
Sept. 14. In the issue of Sep*. 21 its
reasons for espousing the Democratic
cause are clear and forceful.
The leading editorial, "The Wastes
of Competition," says:
"More and more the campaign is
coming down to two pressing issues,
the tariff and the proper treatment of
monopolies. Collier's actively dis
agrees with the view of monopoly be
ing urged by Messrs. Roosevelt, Per
kins and Gary.
They talk a great deal about the
wastes of competition. The necessary
wastes of competition are relatively
Insignificant, and the wastes of unfair
and destructive competition are wholly
unnecessary. They will be largely
eliminated when competition is regu
lated.
"The La Follette-Lenroot and the
Stanley bills to perfect the Sherman
law and. the Newlands-Cummlns pro
posals for an interstate Wade commis
sion are all directed in part to that
end. The remaining wastes of compe
tition may be likened to the wastes of
democracy. These are obvious, but we
know also that democracy has com
pensations which render It more effi
cient than absolutism. So it is in in
dustry. The margin between what
men naturally do and what they can
do is so great that the system which
urges men on to effort is the best sys
tem.
"The necessary wastes of monopoly,
on the other hand, are enormous. Some
of these can, of course, b"e eliminated
by regulation. An efficient interstate
trade commission, acting under appro
priate legislation, could put an end to
much of the oppression of which trllsts
have been guilty. It could prevent un
just discrimination. It could prevent
ruthlesB and unfair use of power but
a government commission would be
powerless to secure for the people the
low prices commonly attendan(ffiipon
competition.
"As no means exist for determining
"whether greater' net earnings are due
to greater efficacy in management or
to excessive profits, large net earnings
would be followed by compulsory re
duction of prices, which in turn woulrl
create a sense of injustice suffered,
paralyze individual enterprise and pro
duce unprqjresslve, slipshod manage
ment. The attempt to secure low
prices through price fixing woufxl
prove as impotent am the statutes
which have sought to protect the pub
lic in railroad rates by limiting the
dividends.
"The Interstate commerce commis
sion has been invoked as an argument
In favor of licensing monopoly. That
commission has stopped many abuses
It has practically put an end to cor
rupt and corrupting discrimination in
rates it has protected the shipper
from oppression and arrogance and in
justice it has prevented unreasonable
advances in rates but it has secured
comparatively few notable reductions
In rates, except those involved in
stopping discrimination between pet
sons, places or articles. It has been
powerless to reduce operating costs,
and greater reductions in rates can
come only with reductions in the cost
of producing transportation. The in
justice and corruption attending the
earlier railroad period were extremely
serious. But we must not forget that
the sweeping reductions in American
operatikff costs and rates belong to the
earlier period of competition among
railroads. In the ten years from 1889
to 1899, while competition among the
railroads was active, the freight rate
per ton per mile was gradually re
duced from .941 to .724. The years
1899-1900 marked the great movement
for combination or "community of in
terest" in the railroad world as well
as in the industrial world. The freight
rate per ton per mile began to rise. In
each of the eleven succeeding years it
was higher than in 1899, and in 1910
it was .753.
"The deadening effect of monopoly
is illustrated by its arrest of inven
tion. The shoe machinery trust, form
ed in 1899, resulted in combining, di
rectly and indirectly, more than 100
shoe machinery concerns. It acquired
substantially a monopoly of all the es
sential machinery used in bottoming
boots and shoes, as well as many oth
er machines. It believed itself unas
sailable, and shoe manufacturers had
come to regard their subjection to the
trust as unavoidable. Nevertheless, in
1910 the trust found its prestige sud
denly threatened and its huge profits
Imperiled. It was confronted with a
competitor so formidable that the
trust, in flagrant violation of law, paid
$5,000,000 to buy him out Thomas O.
Plant had actually succeeded in devel
oping in about five years, while the
trust was stolid from monopoly, a
