Monopolies To
Be Prosecuted
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
W. Va. IIP) Atty. Gen Herbert
Brownell Jr. said today the Re
publican administration will crqck
down op anti-trust violations wher
ever they occur. \ k ..... j
In an address described in ad- *
vance as a “major” statement of
Justice Department policy, Brown
ell sa'd there will be “no winking”
at violations and “no wholesale
dismissal” of anti-trust suits in
herited from the Truman admin
istration.
Speaking before the judicial con
ference of the Fourth U. S. Circuit,
he said many questions have been
raised about the new administra
tion’s attitude toward business
monopolies and regulation ofi trade
practices.
-The anti-trust laws, he said, have
the whole-hearted support of the
American public. The problem, he
added, is “the extent” enforcement
should control business.
STANDS FOR EQUALITY
The administration “from the
President on down,” he said, stands
for “equality" of enforcement, as
sistance to businessmen “acting in
good faith,” and “an uncompro
mising determination that there
shall be no slackening of effort to
protect free enterprise against
monopolies and unfair competi
tion."
He announced he will soon ap
point a special committee to study
present anti-trust laws, some of'
them dating back to 1890, and
recommended a new national policy
of fighting monopoly.

friends and intensely IpyaJ to all of them.
Unfortunately, his political enemies frtxjuently suc
ceeded in painting a false picture of him to the people.
They called him a big corporation lawyer, yet tne last
court case in which he ever appeared was in behalf of a
widowed mother suing a big corporation.
The worst thing we ever heard him say about his opr
ponent was, “He’s My Friend.” That’s the kind of man
Willis Smith was. ,
They accused him of injecting a racial issue into his
campaign. Actually, he threatened to withdraw from the
campaign if he caught his staff engaging in such.
WiiiiS Smith was a man of remarkable vision, keefi
insight, vast knowledge and great personal kindness.
When others got upset, he had the ability to keep
calm and think.
When his critics were unfair and unkind he ignored
it and it up to the heat of the campaign. ” 'M
The most famous court case in which tnis greap
Legal expert ever appeared was that of a poor Raieigb
Negro wno had a just claim against a prominent political ,
figure.
Other lawyers were afraid to take the case, but Willis
Smith took it and won it fbtvtne poor Negro.
Some of his critics called Willis Smith a Republican
because he Had the ability to think and act for himself.
Had Willis Smith been a member of the Republican
Party it would have fcortd it just as hard to .keep him
ih strict party lines as the Democrats, lie wasn’t that kind
of man. _
lie was a man who put the welfare of his country
ahead of ail other considerations; a man who could clearly
define the issues and get fit the bottom of things.
' it whs impossible to know Willis Smith without
loving and admiring him. Those in his preseyre always
had the feeling and the full realization that tliey were in
the presence of a great man.
'Die editor of tnis newspaper will always be happy and
proud that he had an opportunity to be associated with
Willis Smith, and to know him as a friend.
Only history will record his, true greatness.
