Washington, July An inter-
state trade commission of five mem
bers to control industrial corpora
lions as the interstate commerce
commission controls the railroads is
advocated in a bill introduced in the
senate by Mr.. Newlf -, of Nevada.
Mr.. Newlands In a st..ement accom-
panying the bill contends that the
Standard Oil and tobacco decisions
and the recent report on the steel in
dustry show the need of IAN indie
pendent, quasi judicial and admins
~trative tribunal of great character
and dignity, as far removed from par
titsan control as are the courts" The
bill would require all industrial cor
Icrations having receipts exceeding
$1,000, 600 to make satisfactory
statements as to capitalization, fl
nances and operations, such corpora
lions I'd be known as United States
registered" companies. Lack of such
registration is made an indication
of something wiring"
