Completely WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 (AP) More power to control and direct railroad consolidation policies was sought from congress today by tho interstate commerce commission. In its annual repoi't, the com m lesion formally recommended a wholo series of changes and addi tions to present laws governing railroad consolidation, hearty all of which would tend to give the fed eral government a firmer and mure complete grip upon carrier organ ization. ' The commission nuked that cong ress make unlawful "any consoli dation or acquisition of the con tent ifm nni rnrrlfr In ntititlter In' any 1 manner whatsoever, except with our specific approval and uu thorlzatlon." ' . This; proposal was designed to prevent railroad mergers being ef fectuated by round-about methods, In which tho commission has been unable to Intervene. - It also asked congress to give it 'broad powers J to approve or disapprove such con solidations, acquisitions of control, mergers or unifications in any ap propriate manner." , Such a grant of power would Insure the com missions authority to modify or al low in part proposals submitted to it.
