August Thysscti, the second of the great (leinian ca) tuins 'of industry to grow powerful during the war and pass away since, stood with Sliniics for the "vertical trust" instead of the "pure trust," as developed in America. Nearly all of our magnates have S'Uiglit to dominate a single industry, such as petroleum, coal, slccl, railroads, shipping or meat. The Germans- named were interested rather in beginning with a single industry and joining with it all the related industries necessary for its operation, thus insuring ..stability and barring outsiders, from any share of the profit' from raw material to final marketing. ' Today the "vertical trui.t" is mailing headway in the United -Status. Henry Kord i;l its most characteristic rep resentative. Ills original business was merely making auto mobiles. In building up that industry, he gave support to many industi ies furnishing him necessary materials or jscrvices. Now he boasts that the Ford Motor company owns and controls every step of the whole long process of production, from raw materials lo finished prodftcls, in cluding the limber in the forest, the ore in the ground, sawmills and furnaces and rolling mills and glass factories and the rest, with even railroads and ships to carry the J mill product lo its market. . This is industrial power at its highest. It, is 'the ideal of many of our American industries today. Industrial prog less in the immediate, future will be largely concerned with working out such "vertical" programs. If the power is used fairly, and consumers are given the benefit of the resulting economy, there can be no valid objection. tened lo explain.
