President Sends Special Message on Commerce Law Reform
President Taft urges Congress to strengthen Interstate Commerce regulation and trust controls. He proposes a Court of Commerce with exclusive original jurisdiction over key enforcement and review matters, federal action to curb rate abuses, through routes, joint rates, and through transport. The plan would reform railroad ownership, ban cross holdings, and require court approval for reorganizations and stock issuances to prevent anti competitive practices.

Taft Proposes Federal Incorporation To Curb Trusts
In a formal address President Taft argues for a national incorporation law to regulate large industrial combines. He warns against monopoly while preserving legitimate economies of scale, notes past Supreme Court rulings, and outlines a plan for federal charters, reporting, and holding structures to restrain abuse without destroying productive efficiency. The proposal contends that federal incorporation could prevent interstate restraints on trade while allowing capital concentration under strict supervision.
