15 oct. 1914 - Clayton Anti-trust Act
Description:
This is important because the act strengthened the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890. The Clayton Act prohibited corporations from acquiring the stock of another if doing so would create a monopoly; if a company violated the law, its officers could be prosecuted. The power to control,regulate, and monitor corporations influenced the creation of the Federal Trade Commission.Ajouté au bande de temps:
