"This intercorporate relationship

dominates and determines nearly

One of the results is that although
he requests for an increase in rates
have come from many hundreds Of
railroad corporations, they are ac-
tually requests from few great sys
tens. Many railroad corporations
that legally are independent, economi-
cally are dependent and are mere

DR.. Warne presented many dia-

interlocked by stock ownership and

"INTERLOCKING" IS
BEFORE CONGRESS

(By Congressman c. H. Tavenner)
Washington, March 12.-Whether
Congress, in spite of the sincere de-
sire of its leaders, will be able to
enact an adequate bill prohibiting in
terlocking directorates, after weeks OF
study and hearings is still disputed
question.
The very magnitude of the task
may defeat the Democratic purpose
On the face of it it seems simple to
enact such a prohibition. But the con-
sequences run through such tangle
of intricate lines that it is a monu-
mental problem to know just where
the problem should stop in order to
save the American business system
from complete decentralization.
j. Pierpont Morgan uttered an apt
sirlile when he likened the dissolu-
ton of intercorporate ties to un-
scrambling eggs.
If the judiciary committee is un-
able to perfect bill which will meet
the situation, then it is likely that
the proposed trade commission will be
granted greater powers than was eX-
pected when the matter was first
broached. If the interdependence OF
corporations cannot be destroyed, then
the government must regulate it.
Some idea of the magnitude OF the
task confronting the Judiciary COM
mittee may be gained from the recent
testimony of DR.. Frank J. Warne,
an expert satistician, who appeared
before the interstate commerce COM
mission in the advanced rate case.
DR.. Warne undertook to show how the
railroads of the eastern half OF the
United States were interlocked in
ownership and direction. 4 -
Dir. Warne showed that there are
approximately today 897 separate and
distinct railroad companies in the
eastern United States. But 600 OF
them, or 6S per cent, are in actual

animals among which it was found.
