"The concentration Of control in the

which is a decrease of 6.25 per cent

"They have built for themselves 9
series of superimposed holding com
panies which not only gather the
profits of the operating companies in
less conspicuous manner, but raise
series of problems for both investors
in their stock and for the consumers
of light and power. Their existence

President Lewis, Of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor, is arousing workers
and other liberal elements in the
state to this danger. The trade union
list calls on these citizens to abandon
their belief that the primary law is
impregnable.
An effort will also be made to re-
peal the anti-convict labor law, passed
by the last legislature. This act will
take prison labor out of competition
with free labor in few years, burt
