The Western Economic Society
Field, James A. | March 14, 1912 issue

add to cart   close window

The third conference of the Western Economic Society, in Chicago, Illinois, was devoted to a discussion of the regulation of industrial combinations. Speakers from various sections of the country, representing various professions, and with various points of view, gave their attention to this many-sided problem. The result was a series of addresses marked by unusual good-sense and revealing, despite all their diversity of detail, an interesting unanimity of judgment on several of the important issues involved. The sentiment of the conference, nevertheless, clearly favored regulation rather than abolition of the Trusts.
