NEW YORK. Nov. 16.—Recont litigation
and explanation to regulate the trusts is
.!.scus8ed and a remedy to meet the pres-
«nt situation is suggested by Theodore
Itoosevelt in an editorial entitled "The
Trusts and the People and the Square
Deal," published today in the Outlook.
"The suit against the steel trust by
the Government," begins Mr. Roosevelt,
"has brought vividly before our people
lhe restoring to order our chaotic govern-
ment policy as regards business." Ho
concludes with tho following recommen-
dation:
"The National Government exercises
control over interstate commerce and the
railways and it can in a similar fashion,
through an appropriate government body,
exeicise control over all industrial organi-
zations engaged in interstate commerce.
This control should bo exercised, not by
tho courts, but by an administrative bu-
reau or board such as the Bureau of Cor-
porations or the Interstate Commerce
Commission; for the courts cannot with
advantage permanently perform execu-
tive and administrative functions."
Returning to the main subject, Mr.
Roosevelt continued:
"To attempt to meet the whole problem,
not by administrative governmental ac-
tion, but by a succession of law suits, is
hopeless from the standpoint of working
out a permanently satisfactory solution. '

WHEN THERE
IS
ISOLATION
Isolated by sickness or
quarantine?
Never—if you have a
Southwestern telephone.
The doctor may be
summoned quickly in an emergency.
Friends or relatives in distant towns may be
called almost instantaneously.
They are Southwestern subscribers.
And the mother who is kept in when the little boy
has scarlet fever is in constant
conversational contact with
everyone she knows.
Universal service does this.

Ay vant a mortgage.'*

you want a deed?" N
"No, Ay tank not. Sax years ago Ay buy a farm and set ta deed, and an-
odder fellar ha come along with a mortgage and tak da farm. Ay tank Ay tak
a mortgage".
We Convinced Him Vi/hat He Wanted Was a Deed and a Title Guiranty.
