Thus the amount of concentration has

The figures show that In the last two

as HRS opinion that the Democratic

result.
The Sims bill would require that the
commission should issue It's authority

could be issued. and that any such
stocks and bonds SO issued should be
sold at public auction or In such other
manner as the commission should
designate. and that the proceeds from
