HADLEY REPORT
IS DISCOUNTED
FINANCIAL CTRCLES-RANKER
MEWS TALKS.

NEW YORK. Dec. 12.-The finan-
cial district received with compla-
cency to-day the recommendations Of
the Hadley commission to President
Taft for full publicity OF new securi-
ties to be issued by the railroads and
also for the physical valuation of rail-
road property when demanded by
circumstances. The chief recommen-
dations had been discounted in the
news by advance publication by the
International News Service, but pub
lication Of the official report stirred
Wall Street to fresh interest In the
subject.
Henry clews the banker and
broker. endorsed most heartily the
entire scheme. IT have been con-
tending for years for exactly the prin-
ciples enunciatsd In the Hadley re-
port" he said to-day. THE most
complete detailed reports should DO
published by the railroads at least
twice year OF their financial condi-
ton. This would protect alike the
investing public and the financiers.
Publicity In short time would cure
every evil Of over-capitalization by
the railroads. 1t would squeeze out
every drop of water in railroad So
curities.
But II we are to have a law on
the subject the penalty for it's vio-
lation should be criminal and not
financial. We have found by ex-
perienoe that fines for law violations
by big aggregations OF capital are
not effective. The fines are paid, and
then the guilty men and corpora
tons not only laugh At us, but make
It up out Of W. The law also should
define guilt ~ personal. Let us put
that principle INTO all Of our statutes
designed to check corporate greed and
nnAncial rsckieasness. and that form
OF evil that AFFLICTED US for 40 lonr
= time will be wiped out"
