A Plan For Holding
Company Regulation!
By E. Hofer.
Public u ility execu*ives, in
company with other industrial
ists and thousands of citizens,
have objected strenously to the
proposed Public Utility Act of
1935. And that, in turn has
caused various (newspapers and j
commentors to say: “Your objec
tions are valid; but, if the Public
Utility Act is to be defeated,
what would you put in its place?”
That question has been decisi
vely answered by Wendell L.
Wjillkie, President of the Com
monwealth and Southern Cor
oration, who has presented a list
of specific suggestions for hold
ing company regulation, which
would project investors and con
sumers, and still save properties
valued at billions of dollars from
unqualified destruction. Here are
some of them:
That all shares of stock have
one voie. This would do away
with the criticism that a group,
or an indivdual, by obtaining con
trol of a relatively small amount
of voting stock can override the
wishes of those who own large
amounts of stock which does not
carry voting rights.
That the Securities and Ex
lliange Commission shall have the
power io prohibit the issuance of
securities which it believes de
termined to the investing or con
suming public. This would take
care of any so-called “watering’’
manipulaioins.
That the law require that a ma
jority of directors of holding and
operating companies, shall be ac
tual residents of the territory
served. This would offset the
criticism that, under existing con
ditions, a group of men who have
never been in a s.ate or an area
can determine what shall be done
in the way of development, rates
and service.
That officials of holding com
panies or an operating subsidiary
be prohibited from owning more
than one per cent of the voting
stock of any company furnishing
service or materials to such opera
ting subsidiary. This would make
it impossible for officials to “cash
in” on their business connections.
That service to a substantially
wholly-owned operating subsi
diary be provided at cost, and to
a subsidiary not so owned, at a
reasonable profit. This meets the
charge that holding companies
have made excessive profits on
jobs done for subsidiaries.
Thta holding companies shall
not be allowed to use the em
ployes of operating companies in
selling securities. This would
elminate one more real or fancied
abuse of holding company power.
That the Securities oCmmission
shall be atuhorized, at the request
of a state commission shall be
authorized, at the request of a
state commission, to inves.igate
accounts and records of holding
companies affecting service charg
es and other intercompany rela
tionships. This provides a fur
ther safeguard against financial
explotation of subsidiaries.
That holding companies shall
be prohibited from acquiring vot
ing stocks of utility companies
without approval of the Securi
ties Commission or a State Com
mission, and that all others be
prohibited from acquiring more
than five per cent of such stocks
without similar approval. This
offers the utmost protection to
investors and consumers against
unwise and unjustified control of
operating utilities by holding
companies.
Finally, Mr. Willkie advocates
that provision be made for inter
state power boards, composed
principally of the State Utility
commissioners concerned, to pass
upon interstate wholesale power
rates. This would do away wtih
the criticism that such rates are
unregulated now, any may be ex
cessively high.
It is difficult to see how it can
be disputed that Mr. Willkie’s
program would give almost un
limited protection to the entire
public; and solve the holding
company problem to the benefit
of all concerned. Here are con
structive suggiefctipns; and any
one is prejudiced indeed who can
believe that the public interest
would be better served by the
pure destructivism the Public
Utility Act of 1935 represents.

The new suits are white trousers,
coats and shirts, with black neckties
and shoes. William Cooley, direc;or
of the CCC Glee Club will be respon
dent in a white Prince Albert coat
trimmed in blue.
John Wesley Edwards, son of the
late Rev. P. E. Edwards, who is sup
porting his mother as an enrollee of
CCC Company 1360, garrisoned at the
Northeast section of the Nation’s cap
ital, has been promoted from leader
of the Sunday Morning Devotional
Service, to the assistant Educational
Adviser.
Thirty-nine new enrollees during
the past week have joined the 1360
CCC camp located on the National Ar
boretum. This land is under the sup
ervision of the Department of Agri
culture. Edward Murphy, a former
student of Hampton Institute, and
Webster Davis of Washington have
been appointed by Captain J. P.
Moore as hospital attendants. Percy
Johnson has been promoted to an as
sistant leader.
Barracks No. 3 of 1360 Company
j for the third consecutive week has
been awarded the “Merit Flag”, a
black banner, studded with a large
white star, which waves high over the
■ roain entrance. Herman Burt is the
CCC leader and Lee Skipper, who car
ried on so well during the recent ill
ness of Burt is one of the assistant
leaders and Norvell Brown is the oth
er assistant leader of Barracks No. 3.
CCC Company 1360 has eight col
ored leaders and s.xteen assistant
leaders. Robert Jones, the Company
clerk for nearly two years is the;
president of the Leaders Club. Ser
geant "Monte” Blue, another of the old
guard, who joined the outfit in Vir
ginia, before it was transferred to
Washington, is still on the job as the
big boss of the Mess Hall.
Arthur Thorogood, assistant Edu
cational Advisor, 362 CCC Company,
Military Park No. 3, Fredericksburg,
Virginia, got the thrill of his life last
week in meeting and shaking hands
with Director Robert Fechner, the
man. entrusted by President Roosevelt,
to carry on for another two years and
to watch every detail of the additional
expenditure of $600,000,000 for the
Emergency Conservation Work,
throughout the country. Thorogood is
a graduate of Cordoza High School,
Washington, D. C., and he sends in
the names of Archie E. Skipper, El
mer Shelton, Paul Lewis, and James
Evans as other High School graduates,
now in the CCC camp at this notable
battlefield, who are hoping the FERA
college benefits next year will enable
thm to go on with their education
They are also writing to several pres
idents of Negro universities in the
hope of affecting by some good for
tune the apportunity to matriculate
at their institution this fall.
The idea of especial consideration
for colored CCC enrollees who wish to
go to college was advanced and follow
ed through with more than a score of
the leading universities of higher
learning by Charles Satehell Morris,
Jr., Educational Adviser, at Camp
Tuckahoe, New Jersey. They in

0O0—
Pi esident Roosevelt wants the
Nra extended for two years by
i Congress. But he recently told a
Senator that he would not oppose
j even a ten months’ extension.
^ Result: The Senate Finance
Committee has approved a draft
of a resolution which, in the
j words of one commentator, “of
fered an emasculated Blue Eagle
less than tne months to flutter to
| its grave.”
; The resoluion would extend
NRA to April 1, 1936, and would
1 draw its teeth by eliminating all
regulations of intrastate business,
and all price-fixing, with the ex
ception of mineral resource indus
tries.

Statesmanship Should
Transcend Politics
| , On April 19, United States
Senator McNary of Oregon said:
“What the country needs more
than anything else is rest Reas
surance and confidence. All would
profit by this happy eventuality.”
Speaking at the recent Found
ers's Day Exercises of the Uni
versity of Virginia, Bainbridge
Colby, Secretary of State under
President Wilson, said: “The
American people will insist, with
Jefferson and Wilson, that their
national government shall be
content with its constitutional
role as arbier of just and definite
laws, proceeding from he people
an denacted by their duly elected
representatives.”
These statements differ only
superficially each of them reflects
the growing weariness of Ameri
can people, of all parties and clas
ses, with experiments and self
serving political schemes whifch
are actually retarding, rather
than advancing, recovery.
All duties are matters of con
science, with this restriction that
a superior obligation suspends the
force of an inferior one.
Men must be either the slaves
of duty, or the slaves of force.

Milk and Explorers
Thst was the problem bothering
one little girl who was convinced
of the value of milk. “What do
Artie explorers do?” was the ques
tion put to her
school teacher. And
again “Do they take
cows on ocean liners
carrying little boys
and girls?”
Shows thought,
doesn’t it? As a
matter of fact, it’s
the keystone of the educational
arch- Curiosity. And that very
wise teacher took advantage of
her opportunity. So the class was
launched upon a series of investi
gations and live discussions. They
discovered the meaning of pas
teurization, bottling, germ free
milk, refrigeration on board ship
and in dining cars. And in a
most convincing way they reas
sured themselves of the importance
: of mflk to adults as well as to chil
, dren. For they learned that ex
! plorers and sailjrs do indeed use
| milk in huge quantities.
