Abstract

Commissioner of Corporations Garfield advises Secretary of Commerce and Labor Cortelyou about the proper use of Edward Rosewater's memorandum relative to an investigation into the manufacture of paper. The Bureau of Corporations does not have the mandate or personnel to be used as an agency for the discovery of violations of the antitrust laws. Information acquired by the department is to be used to structure legislation rather than for the prosecution of violations of federal statutes.
