DOVER, Del April 2.-The report Of
the Committee on Corporations was con-
siderably amended In the Constitutional
Convention this morning The con-cen-
sus Of opinion among the members was
that the report as presented by the COM

State but would also prevent outside capt.
tai from investing In the Siata. 1t was
contended by the lawyers thai the ques-
tion of general corporation law should
be left to the General Assembly.

to-day by the Committee of the Whole
reads as follows:
mo corporation shall issue stock, ex-
cept for money paid, labor done or Ier-
sonal property or real estate, or leases
thereof actually acquired by such corpora
tion, and neither labor not property shall

greater price than the actual value at the
time the said labor was done for property

tions for directors or managers Of stock
