The senator said "There are diseases of size . . . and that as concerns get bigger and bigger, supervision becomes more difficult, morale more tepid, and managers know less about what is going on. The Inevitable Result "The inevitable result is an increase in internal bureauc racy, a drying up of initiative, a slackening of energy and a growing tendency of decisions to be made without full knowledge of facts." In the latter connection, big business has said right along that the politicians who make the accusations against big business are the ones who are without a full knowledge of the facts. He advocated a law which would make it mandatory for corporations to give prior no tice of mergers to the Justice Department. Business m e n who have asked for a Justice Department decision on the legality of a merger have often' in the past been told that none would be forth coming but the merger would be prosecuted after consum mation if it were deemed in restraint of trade. Several Aids The senator lists several aids for small business which he says, would help to build it up. One of them involves putting the government into the banking business for small borrowers because pri vate banks do not make long term loans and small com panies cannot float bonds. He would reform the patent system to make patents avail able to all on a leasing or royalty basis instead of the principle of exclusive use. He would give small busi ness collusion rights to band together to obtain quantity discounts which he abhors for big business. Also, he would allow pooling of shipments to cut transportation costs. Also, he would give small business tax concessions. "From economic considera tions alone," the senator says, it is in the public interest to lessen the degree of concen tration in American industries and to produce a greater dif fusion of economic power."
