reaching for these old dishes to
re-cook them for .the' current r-
edlflcatlon of the public or other
wise.
Senator Norrls has sarcastically
called Mr. WUlkle, the republican
nominee, "a seeond Insult" and
the democratic national conven
tion has taken steps to further
that impression, or at least to
bring uo the Question of what
kind ot utiuties man Mr. Wfllkle
was. A reportoriai eziort to col
lect and contribute non-partisan
evidence on the subject develops
the following results:

Mr. Winkle bared bis theor-
tee

fore the honse interstate com
merce committee five years ago,
March 14, 10S5, long? before he
considered entering a political
career. Strangely be was
gainst most of them, that ' is
the old practices that prevailed
before 1029. He referred to that
era mm "a craxy period."
Basically he favored abolition
of Intermediate holding compan
ies, that i' those beyond th see
ond degree (his own Common
wealth and Southern had no in
termediate ' holding companies
then except a small one, -he testi
fied), which is about If per cent
against what Insuil stood for.
Ia fact he hewed not far from
the line of the new dealer that
the straight operation of a legit
tmate holding company mad for
efficiency in operation and devel
opment This is practically the
same thing the reforming TVA
director, David Lllienthal, said
when a publie utility commission
er of Wisconsin, attributing "the
spread of rural electrification, the
amasing advances of telephony,
the ris ot super-power systems
these and many other technolog
ical developments so Intimately
related to th publie welfare" to
th holding company. . Willki
WUlkle then charged his attl
Ity predecessors with . baring
taken too much profit on engi
neering and supervision. - (He
said no profit was Justified on
supervision.) He said their old
write-up policy was likewise no
justified.' These he mentioned
as "some practices that they en
gaged in that were wrong, but
these practice were common to
all business prior to 1929." He
thought the indictment that had
been made against the a till tie
was readly "the Indictment of a
period and a general system of'
doing business.
The present republican nominee
ven advocated "some national
commission" to prevent abuses
such as th acquisition of com
mon stock by a holding eomnanr
in companies in which it had no
operating Interest
H also recommended publica
tion' of th costs of advertising
and similar expenses by local nub.
11 utility . companies. He was
against upstream loans ' ( that is
loan from operating companies up
to holding companies for no util
itarian., bud only a financial pur
pose). "If that had been th law
ten years ago, it would have saved
ua a lot ot trouble." he said.
Attributing the bad name of ths
utilities to their failure to answer
political charges for fear of pant-
tire persecution by politicians, he
'concluded: - . ,
"I ask with all the earnest-
nee I know bow, whatever you
gentlemen decide to do with us,

v This eridenee, which is wholly,
in keeping with the business prac
tices which Wlllkl put into oper

for him a reputation among his
collesgues la th utilities business
as being something of a new deal
er, a fact which the new dealers
noted. They respected him great
