AT O A

IT WAS EXPECTED THAT THE LATE EXECUTIVE WOULD HAVE GREATLY AIDED THE PRESIDENT'S PROPOSALS.

(National News Service.) Washington, Dec. 30. Far reaching as its effect on the railroad world may be, the sudden death of Presi

dent A. J. Cassatt is already a subject of much discussion In Washington in

its relations to politics. Those ex

perts who realize the necessary inter

dependence and need for co-operation

between the government and commer

rial enterprises already point to its significance. In a word, It removes

one of tHe most powerful influences in the field of business for a desired proper solution by the government of

the great problems of the day.

There is no doubt that President

Cassatt, looking ahead, understood that the question of the regulation

of corporations was one of the great

est and most intricate before the country. While Secretary Root's re

cent speech Js still causing surprise, it in a large measure simply recbgniz ed the need for dealing with those problems which Mr. Cassatt foresaw. As the head of one of the greatest

railroads in the world, his stand dur

.ing the consideration of the rate bill

in backing up President Roosevelt,

Is now, in the light of subsequent

events, taken here merely as an In

dication of "Ms foresight.

The loss of a leader and co-worker

.of such prominence and influence, it is now pointed out, is much to be regi retted, whether viewed from a party jOr a national standpoint. In th bo jlution of the large problems of busi!ness which are now occupying tuch an important position, he was looked upon In Washington by the support- . ors of Mr. Roosevelt'c policies as an j exceptionally valuable aid, whose loss la to be deeply deplored 1 Drastic Regulation Deplored. The President in his message plainly indicated his belief in the regulation of large corporations by the Federal goveVnment, but he as plainly Indicated that such regulation should fee achieved with the utmost care and regard for the business development of the country. Hasty ill-timed, or being too dangerous to allow anything but the most painstaking care 'in the solution of these problems. In 'the sentiment already crystallizing about the President's ideas in this matter, Mr. Cassatt's influence was expected to be a leading factor Like Mr. Roosevelt he believed that Federal regulation instead of heterogeneous ineffective and harmful state laws should be advocated, and through his position his backing was warmly welcomed. Like the President, also, Mr.

Cassett deplored the tendency to look upon all corporations as harm;ful because of the sins of a few. the two men standing together in their belief in the right sort of regulation i and their antagonism to indiscriminate trust-baiting, as a menace to the country's prosperity. Politicians are Outspoken. Politicians here who feel no personal loss in Mr. Cassatt's death, are nevertheless outspoken in their belief that it IJb particularly untimely. The question of the regulation of corporations is in the fore front, and the harmful workings on the business communities of extreme and ineffective laws passed by certain Western states shows the dangers which must be avoided. In the case of one State

at lear.,- a law founded on the demagogic utterances and fostering of class feeling which the President deplored in his message, has already cost that State millions of dollars In lost business, without bringing about a single benefit. Undoubtedly the two presidents, Roosevelt and Cassatt. each seeing things in his own way, hoped as strongly to avoid such legislation and its consequent ill effects, as they hoped and. in the case of President Roosevelt, continue to hope and work for proper regulation. It is generally stated here that in the work for such proper regulation as both of them stood for, as well as in the equally important task of stilling the demagogic cry and preventing illtimed legislation. Presidents Roosevelt and Cassatt represented the best interests of the country. Mr. Cassatt undoubtedly was conservative, but conservative in the new sense in comparison with extremists, realizing as he did the need of proper regulation of corporations. It is therefore not surprising that his loss is looked upon here as a national cal

amity.
