Congress is also urged TO provide

Evidence obtained by the commits
sion has developed, according TO the
four signers of the report. that the
control of manufacturing, mining and
transportation industries is to an in

of great corporations through stock

centralized In a comparatively small
number OF enormously powerful fnan-

dominated by very small number of

the report says, these few men have
the final control over American indus
