Amendment to Sherman act aims to end rule of reason
Representative Stan ley of Kentucky after talks with President Wilson introduced an amendment to the Sherman act to prohibit monopolization or restraint of trade in any degree. The proposal would grant federal courts exclusive jurisdiction to restrain violations irrespective of the attorney general, aligning with the president’s wishes to narrow debatable areas of antitrust law. Stanley, chair of the U S Steel inquiry panel, says the measure aids congressional committees drafting antitrust legislation rather than being an administration bill.
