Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Truth About the Trusts: A Description and Analysis of the American Trust Movement
While there is much discussion being carried on, yet the actual facts seem everywhere to be wanting. We read essays, more or less intelligent, by professed students of the subject; we read the labored treatises of college professors and other experts in political econ omy; we see the Shallow and uncertain references which are fre quently made to the tendency in political platforms, and the some times even more shallow bills which are introduced and rushed through our legislatures in the seemingly vain attempt to remedy the evils of the Trust we even hear expressed now and then, a practical Opinion from the lips Of some keen, successful business man - and conversely, we find the field ?ooded with socialistic liter ature on the subject. There are all sorts Of theories being propagated and ideas being advanced which essay to right the wrongs said to be caused by the growth Of the Trusts. There are condemnations and defenses; Sharp criticisms and pointless ones; apologies, chaotic and irrational; championships, vapid and absurd. Some Of these at tempts re?ect study and thought; others prejudice and temper. Very few, whatever position may be taken, are fair and frank with all the various phases Of the question or appear to treat the subject in an entirely just and impartial manner.
