The Square Deal
Teddy Roosevelt - The Trust Buster Teddy Roosevelt was one American who believed a revolution was coming. He believed Wall Street financiers and powerful trust titans to be acting foolishly. He believed that large trusts and monopolies were harmful to the economy and especially to the consumer. While they were eating off fancy china on mahogany tables in marble dining rooms, the masses were roughing it. There seemed to be no limit to greed. If docking wages would increase profits, it was done. If higher railroad rates put more gold in their coffers, it was done. How much was enough, Roosevelt wondered? The President's weapon was the Sherman Antitrust Act, passed by Congress in 1890. This law declared illegal all combinations "in restraint of trade." For the first twelve years of its existence, the Sherman Act was a paper tiger. United States courts routinely sided with business when any enforcement of the Act was attempted. 1. What belief guided President Theodore Roosevelt’s efforts as a trustbuster? 2. What is a monopoly? Why are they harmful to the economy and to the consumer? 3. What piece of legislation did Roosevelt use to break up monopolies? The Square Deal The Square Deal was Roosevelt's domestic program formed on three basic ideas: conservation of natural resources, control of corporations, and consumer protection. In general, the Square Deal attacked plutocracy and bad trusts while simultaneously protecting businesses from the most extreme demands of organized labor. In contrast to his predecessor William McKinley, Roosevelt believed that such government action was necessary to mitigate social evil, and as president denounced “the representatives of predatory wealth” as guilty of “all forms of iniquity from the oppression of wage workers to defrauding the public." Trusts and monopolies became the primary target of Square Deal legislation.

Interview with Ruth E. Hansen
Library of Congress Interview with Ruth E. Hansen The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project RUTH E. HANSEN Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: June 21, 2004 Copyright 2005 ADST Q: Today June 21, 2004. This is an interview with Ruth E. Hansen. Let's start at the beginning. Could you tell me when and where you were born and then we'll talk a little bit about your family, your parents. HANSEN: I was born in 1946 in Chicago. My family is originally from Chicago, both parents born there. My father was raised on the West Side, in the Austin neighborhood, and my mother on the South Side. On my father's side, his family on his father's side came from Norway, immigrants who came to the United States in the mid-1800s, I guess. I have heard the story of his grandmother coming as a 13-year-old and going into service with a Chicago family. His own father was a high school principal in Chicago. His father and all his uncles graduated from Northwestern University and went into a variety of professioneducation, law, pharmacy. Q: With an immigrant family, this is sort of remarkable that they would be within a relatively short time going to Northwestern, being a high school principal and in other professions. What was the secret of their getting into that position? Interview with Ruth E. Hansen http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001358 Library of Congress HANSEN: I don't know if there was a secret.

Gunboat Economics?
Andreas Exenberger, Dr. Research Area “Economic and Social History” Faculty of Economics and Statistics, Leopold-Franzens-University Innsbruck Universitaetsstrasse 15, A-6020 Innsbruck Tel.: (+43)-(0)512-507-7409 E-mail: [email protected] Homepage: http://www.uibk.ac.at/economics/exenberger Paper for AHE 08 (London, July 14-16, 2006) (Version of June 1, 2006; rough draft, no citation without explicit permission) Gunboat Economics? An Essay about some of the Relationships between Wealth and Violence Introduction By working on the relevance of violence in economics (from an historical perspective) I discovered something seeming rather strange at first site: although there are a lot of historical examples that the performance (and appearance) of “gunboats” (not necessarily in the literal sense) directly influenced economic relations, there is no conceptual approach about that interrelation neither in economics nor in history. And while the term “gunboat diplomacy” is cited extensively in political and historical (and sometimes even in economical) contexts und even more, is commonly understood, there is no such thing as “gunboat economics” at all. To be correct, this is not completely true. In 1985 Jeffrey Garten published an article in Foreign Affairs even entitled “Gunboat Economics”. In the text however, he did not mention the term again and confuses it throughout the article, which is mainly a critique of Reaganomics and the unilateral (and economically protectionist) foreign policy of the administration Reagan I (1981-84), with gunboat diplomacy. Interestingly enough, during the last twenty years U.S. problem-solving did not change very much and both Bushes as well as Clinton continued and even intensified a foreign policy resting on means that can be summarized as “gunboats” (as I said, not necessarily in the literal sense, because the “gunboats” of our times are not battleships, but long-distance missiles, intervention forces and diplomatic pressure).

July 28, 1975 Dear Colleague: We would like to call to your attention Amendment 681 to the State Department Appropriations bill. This amendment, which will be raised on the floor by Senator Harry F. Byrd, Jr., would prevent any of the funds being appropriated by the bill to be spent to negotiate "the surrender or relinquishment of any U.S. rights in the Panama Canal Zone." Such language was added on the floor of the House to H.R. 8121 by Congressman M.G. Snyder, of Kentucky, but was deleted by the Senate Appropriations Committee in the full committee mark-up last week. In our view, the Byrd-Snyder Amendment is a clear infringement upon the power of the Executive Branch to conduct treaty negotiations. Under the Constitution, this power is granted solely to the Executive Branch. Congressional power with respect to treaties comes into force after the treaty is presented to the Senate for ratification. Senators who may oppose a new Panama Canal treaty can have an opportunity t o voice their objections to it after its timely submission to Congress for review.
