had announced he would have films In all of the AS states within 24 hours of the time of the fight.
 Five sets of film were seized when he was arrested yesterday. It could not be determined whether others had heeh shipped. Sonenshine and his attorneys insisted the sets fin question were for shipment to Can ada and that this was permissible under the law.
 The federal regulation prohibits shipment Of prize fight pictures in interstate commerce with no regula- ton preventing showing Of the films once they are In a state.
 Pictures Of the Tunney-Dempsey contest were shown in Chicago last night 10 large crowds.
 In the past, films of heavyweigst championship fights have been smurgled out of the state in which the fight was held and this fact accounted for vigilance of federal agents in this instance. It has been ruled by federal courts in some cases attorneys said, that possession of the pictures is not evidence of a yio- lation Of the interstate commerce statute.

Philadelphia. Sept A CP-A %20o,0O0,000 merger of the Phila- delphia Electric company and the United Gas Improvement company of Philadelphia, with notifications in many states. will be recommend ed to the directorate of the two cor porations next week by a joint com mittec representing both companies
 Announcement was made yester- day by the committee that it would recommend, in order 10 bring about a "closer relationship between the two companies an exchange of stock on the basis of two shares of Philadelphia Electric stock, Of the par value of $25 each, for one share of the Unied Gas Improvement Co.,, of the value of $50.
 If the proposal is approved and recommended to stockholders it will bring about a merger whose intri- cate interests can be traced into twenty eight states and which will be unidentified with public utility property by virtue of either owner ship, lease, operation, control or in vestmcnt, valued at approximately $1,000, LOGO. It will also be idonti- fled with what eventually will be the largest pool of electric power in the world.
 The United Gas Improvement Co.,, is the larger of the two concerns. It has capital of more than S1o6,- 000,00 while the Philadelphia Electric has more than s92, ,953, ,00o. Book assets Of the two corporations stand in excess of $364, 900.
