Trust regulation critique in Woodrow Wilson speech
The piece argues Wilson’s trust plan is clearer than Roosevelt’s. It credits Wilson with seeking competitive business by forcing trusts to improve rather than suppress rivals, contrasting with Roosevelt's alliance with Morgan and big corporations. It cites concerns about trust funds from Standard Oil, J Pierpont Morgan, and other magnates influencing campaigns.
