Nobody has paid much attention so far, but in the hearing-room of the House Judiciary Committee a radically new attack on the enormous power of the great American- business corporations is being prepared. On the surface a House subcommittee is imply making one more study of the anti-trust laws. The outline is familiar: small business men complaining about the concentration of economic power, big business men equating that power with the stability of the republic. But the underlying pattern is new, and eventually there will be fireworks.
