Trade Commission
Bill Denounced as
Unconstitutional
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-Donounclng
the administration trade commission bill
as opening up the 'loveliest graft of a
century" and as "surpassing Russia In
Inquisition," James K. Bennett today told
tho house commerce commltteo that such
a law would drive small corporations out
of business. Representing a number of.
corporations, he questions Its constitu
tionality. "This bill aa at present drawn," ho said,
"would givo the vital secrets of tho small
corporation to Its big competitor. It
would show up tho woak points of tho
small concern nnd open It up to tho at
tacks of its rivals. This thing would
open up tho loveliest graft that you gen
tlemen ever saw. With thousands of spe
cial agents roaming around tho country
prying Into the hundreds ot thousands of
corporations, graft wquW bo widespread.
These agents would have no qualification
but political pull, no civil service ex
amination is required, and -they could bo
sent into any corporation's office to mako
a report which would bo binding on that
corporation. If you give him (CO, 1100 or
$500 ho might bo willing to chango the
report. This is a tremendous inquisitorial
power. Russia never had anything like
this, that gave such power without let
or hindrance." t
Mr. Bennett argued that the bill vio
lated the constitutional guarantee
against unlawful search and sclzuro.

situation. Ho said;
"I regret that tho offorta which havo
been mado toi-arrive at a solution hv
agreement of tho problems connected with
tho government of Ireland havo so far
not succeeded.

"In a matter in which tlm hone nri
fears of so many of my subjects nro
keenly concerned and which, unless han
dled now with foresight and Judgment
and In a spirit of mutual concession,
threatens grave future difficulties, it is
my most earnest wish that the. good will
and co-operation of men of all parties and
creeds may heal the dissension nnd Ihv
tho foundations of a lasting settlement."
ino King rererred to his forthcoming
visit to Franco as affording "an oppor
tunity ot testifying to the cordial rela
tions" between t(ie two countries,,
Besides the renewed milim

tho domestic legislation promised in the
