Mr. HARKINS. Mr. Hansen, it is true, is it not, that the ability to control pipelines in the petroleum industry has been and is a decided competitive advantage. Mr. HANSEN. I think it is: yes. Mr. HARKINS. And, in fact, as you testified this morning, pipelines were a major source of monopoly power held by the Standard Oil Trust? Mr. HANSEN. I quoted the Supreme Court, one of the Justices there. The CHAIRMAN. That is Judge Holmes, I think. Mr. HANSEN. Yes, sir. Mr. HARKINS. You would agree, would you not, that it is not too much to claim-in fact, it has been the experience of the oil industrythat the control over transportation is the most effective method for controlling the oil industry in the United States? Mr. HANSEN. Certainly one of the most effective. The CHAIRMAN. That question comes out of a statement found in one of the Senate reports of a Senate Committee investigating this problem. |
