"The true friend of property..is he who insists that property shall be the servant and not the master of the commonwealth..The citizens of the United States must effectively control the mighty commercial forces..There can be no effective control of corporations while..their political activity remains. ..We must have complete and effective publicity of corporate affairs..It is necessary that laws should be passed to prohibit the use of corporate funds directly or indirectly for political purposes..Corporate expenditures for political purposes, and especially such expenditures by public-service corporations, have supplied one of the principal sources of corruption in our political affairs."
