Letter from Seth Low to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Bills, Legislative, Silliman, Reuben D., 1871-1961, Taft, Henry W. (Henry Waters), 1859-1945

Seth Low sends President Roosevelt the draft of a legislative bill that has been changed in accordance with a recent conference. Low notes that the bill does not make any reference to the question of a conspiracy in restraint of trade. This omission was made after consulting with Judge Reuben D. Silliman and Henry W. Taft, who believe the point is already covered elsewhere in existing laws.
