Mr.. Lauck charged that these

ment companies, that their director
ships reached "a railroads and coal
companies, and that through non.
banking directors this alleged capital
combine was still further inter-
locked. Mr.. Lauck summarized the
report as follows: - >,
"The evidence shows there, is a cap
ital combine consisting Of the major
banks, the railroads and the indus
tries controlling basic materials, and
that this combine has and exercises
a power over the economic destiny
Of the United States. It shows that
within the Identical capitalist group
lies the power to adjust or misadjust
relative prices in a manner that will
stimulate Or suppress Industrial activ-
ity.. It points out that this capitalist
group has deliberately maintained
high prices of steel, coal, cement and
other basic materials and that the
railroads, financed by the same In
terests, have refused to place the or.
ders for plant maintenance, or even
the orders necessary to prevent plant
and equipment deterioration. -
