Item description from seller

Library stamps/marks/labels/pocket, gutter started at title page, shelfwear, some pen margin lining, light tone, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; Dr Durand "served as Secretary of the U.S. Industrial Commission. He became Deputy Commissioner of the Bureau of Corporations and was hired as a special expert on the Standard oil investigation. President Taft appointed Durand to serve as Director of the United States Census Bureau in 1909. He held the position until 1913." The Trust Problem focuses on the issues created by Trusts and Pools. "There are at bottom only three possible ways of dealing with trusts and pools. We may seek to prevent them from competing unfairly and to deprive them of special privileges giving an advantage over competitors, but otherwise leave them alone. Practically no one, I take it, would favor the plan of not even placing restrictions upon their methods of competition or seeking to deprive them of special privileges. Second, we may permit trusts and pools to exist but regulate their prices and profits. Third, we may undertake to destroy them. The broad problem before the American people is the choice among these three policies: laissez faire, regulation, and prohibition." Thorough review of 1914 anti-trust thought by one who was significantly involved in the process. ; Ex-Library; 145 pages.…
