H I A HEAVY PENALTY 1 E ! Fine and ImprisonmentCivil Service Commis1 H f sioner is Busy Now

| Washington, D. C., March 6—(Special to Daily DeinocraD-Congressman John A. M. Adair, of the Eighth Indi ana district today Introduced a bill in the bouse of representatives to sup press pools, trusts and combinations in restrain* trade. The bill provides a fine ot |3.000 and imprisonment ot from one to ten years for the violalion d! any of its provl'lons. Mr. Adair will insist on an early report ■ from the committee on this bill. —

The civil service commission has been appealed to for assistance in sup pressing the activities of federal officeholders. Complaints of undue actlvltly by officeholders are coming to the commission form various sections of the south. It was announced at the commission’s offices today that three or four civil investigations have been started in response to these complaints. It Is expected that more will follow. The commission states that no charges have reached it of federal • activity in Indiana.

Representative Adair Is going to make a speed one ot these days in which he will tell the house and the country what h e thinks about the trusts. He has an idea that the trusts will go on ' doing” the people until a tew ot the trust magnaCs are salted away in the penitentiaries of the country. ‘‘Put some of the trust officials behind the bars and you will break up the trusts,” he said. "What do they care for fines? Not a wrapping ot your finger. They simply boost their prices a little and the consumer pays i the fine while the trust magnate waits, and he doesn't have to wait long, either. It the heads of trusts knew i that the penitentiaries were yawning i for them they would soon mend their j ways.” j— . o a D. M.
