Click on image to zoom in
While Attorney General Moody believes that Henry W. Taft’s memorandum is the result of careful thought inspired by the difficulties in enforcing trust law and similar laws, he is unwilling to express a final opinion on the second condition, which deals with imposing conditions upon corporations engaged in interstate commerce. Moody fears the relation between the large corporations and the national government, especially the legislative branch.
