IN FAVOR OF LEGISLATION Commission, in Annual . Report, Recommends Measure to Congress WASHINGTON. Dee. 6 (AP) Consideration by congress of new legislation to prevent possible tie feat by holding corporations of the government's plan for "orderly" consolidation of railroads was rec ommended today by the Interstate colnmerco commission in its annual report. OongrcBH also was Informed 'that tho commission Is proceeding wth ltd general plan for consolidation of all carrle in Into major trunk line systems and hopes to have this ready shortly. "It seeniH clear," the commission said, "that the acquisition of con trol or of an amount of stock sut llelem. to Influence the policies of competing railroads, either by In dividuals or by noncarrler corpo rations, may result In the suppres sion of competition In a manner no less harmful thtin If such con trol bo exercised directly by one carrier over another." Purchase by one road of a com peting line Is prohibited by the Clayton act, and under this statute tho commission several times has ordered roads to divest themselves of stock acquired lu others. . The report points out. however, that n further means of unifying carriers through common coriirol or affili ation has been developed and cites iho Alleghany corporation and the Pcnnrond corporation as examples, Vl'ho Alleghany group was held to be controlled, through a com bination of direct and Indirect means, by the Van Sweringen In terests which control through sim ilar means the New York, Chicago & SI. Louis, the Kile, the Pcre. Marquette, and the Chesapeake and Ohio. '. The pcnnrond corporation, the commission cited, also holds various stocks of railroad corpora tions, and Is not controlled by any railroad company as such, but lis stock is held by a voting trust agreement, continuing until May 1. 19119, and the voting trustees are tho president and two other di rectors of the Pennsylvania rail road. "if these facts aro correct," tho commission mid, "tho Alleghany vorporation can, by acquiring a controlling interest In the stock of a railroad company, bring It under common control wfih the railroad companies above mentioned which are controlled by the same Inter ests as control the Alleghany cor poration, blit' without ltHolf hold ing control of or being controlled by any one of these railroad com panies as such. "In h similar manner tho Pcnn rond .company, by acquiring stock control of a railroad company. ,can bring VI. under common control with Hie Pennsylvania railroad wlthou&JtseTf controlling or being controlled, by tint latter carrier as such. "In other words, ooiimiio.ii controtenn be effected lu'bolh In stances by a chain, one vital link in which Is made up of the con trol exercised, directly or Indirect ly, over two or more corporations by individuals, 'I'ho. process may, of cause, bo facilitated by reducing tho control of tho holding coiu liii ny of one or all of tho carriers involved to a relatively small If not insignificant financial Interest throng IV various devices, such as limitation of Kite voting power of certain classes, of stocks, the super imposing or pyramiding of one holding coin puny on top o-f an other, and the like." If this Is the situation, the com mission continued, the subjection of t he unification of carriers by railroad to the orderly processes of v, carefully planned scheme- of pub lic regulation, as was planned to be accomplished, Is very likely Io be partially or even wholly defeat ed, subject to the possibility that the Clayton anil-trust act may 'ln some measure, after protracted litigation, ennble control over tho situation to be maintained." No specific recommendations Tor legislation were made by the com mission, the problem nnd "Its evi dent dangers" merely being called to the at ten Ion of congress for "serious consideration." Tho commission ' reported Hint under the Htalutu requiring the curriers to surrender Its Income In excess of ft ;t-4 per cent, approxi mately $:i0'i. 000,000 was due from (he ronds for the years 190-I9K based on preliminary computations. A a result of the O'Kallon dec sion by Hie supreme court, holding that the cominjsslon must consider the cost of reproduction of equip ment In valuing the roads, thht estlniiitc must be changed, the commission said. Jt was estimated thtit under the present system of quasl-judlciat hearing procedure a minimum of six yours won til be required to dispone of the present arrearage, and even at the end of thnt period the work would not JVhnt other nay: "AflT uainjf Agmel, pll irnin ahowH my kidneys to bo acting perfeclly." "Aemd reduced my blood prexsure mo-p than forty points in low than two weeks," "My mother trfr-d AemM for indi gfntinn. She la delighted with tho results."
