NIT a separate report
The report advocates the creation of an
Interstate commission of industry to be
clothed with extensive powers of regula-
ton, and with power to fix reasonable
prices for the output of corporation. The
report would require that all corpora
tions capitalized at S50000000 or more
operate under a charter to be issued by
the United States before engaging in in
terstate commerce. Smaller corpora
tions might avail. themselves OF the
Federal charter at their own option.
All corporations ayailing themselves
of the United States charter would be
recapitalized at their actual value. The
report eommends the work OF the bureau
OF Corporations. 1t also approves the So
called Brandeis bill which would trans

Republicans say:
"The principles contained in the bills
drafted by the majority are distinct

them our approval. But if the policy
of dissolution favored by the majority
is to be pursued much additional legis-

can be obtained. This legislation the
majority has scarcely outlined"
The Republican members make il plain
that the report is not an expression of
Republican policy or dictated by the Re-
publican administration, insisting that
the committee members stand on their
own bottom in enuneiating their views

Dor conditions in the steel mills are de-
clared to be mad and suggestion is
made to the corporation to improve them
by working mill hands in eight instead
of twelve hour shifts.

Nonpartisan Ticket Makes Almost
Clean Sweep in Milwaukee.

flood of non-partisan ballots, Milwau-

of aldermen, and county board of su-

every national political party from par

in the state of Wisconsin. For as a re-
suit of the non-partisan victory in the
CITY of Milwaukee, the state legislature,
at a special session soon to be con-
vened is expected to pass a distinctly
non-partisan city election statute. The
Socialists defeated such a measure at
the last session of the legislature, but
yesterdays rout is said practically TO
have killed Socialistic strength in the
state general assembly.
Nearly complete returns from the 146
precincts in the city show that DR.. Ger
hard A. Bading, the non-partiSan can
didate for mayor, defeated Mayor Emil
Seidel the Socialist incumbent, by a
ajority of about II, 000 From the head
of the ticket down through the common
council and county board of super
visors, the voters piled up equally large
totals for candidates on the non-parti
san ticket.
The totals at hand indicate that the
next council will be composed of 20
non-partisan aldermen and nine So
cialist aldermen. The present council
is composed of 20 Socialists and IA non
partisan members.
The widespread interest in the fight
to unseat the Socialist administration
was indicated by the unusually heavy
total vote of so, 900. The highest prev sous
total vote cast in a municipal election
was 59,4S4, at the time Mayor Seidel
