GENERAL ELECTRIC
l CONTROL IS ENDED
Senate Hears Company Has
I Dropped Bulk of Power
Over Other Firms.

The General Electric Co. has di
financial interests in electric power
companies, the Federal Trade Com
mission disclosed yesterday in a re
port to the Senate.
The report was the result of an in
vestigation of the electric power in
dustry, authorized in 1925 under q
resolution sponsored by Senator Nor
ris, Republican. Nebraska. At that
time it was charged in the Senate
that the General Electric Co. had
acquired and was exercising a very
extensive control over the electric
power industry, either directly or in
directly. through stockholders or in
terlocking directors or otherwise"
No Dominating Holders.
Having decided to divest itself of it's
principal instrumentality for control
ling operating electric power COM
panies, the Electric Bond and Share
Co, in December, 1924, the report de-
clared, the General Electric Co. in its
stockholders lists on October. 1926,
showed no dominating stockholders in
either company, and there were no
common directors
On interlocking directorships the
Electric directors held directorships
in other companies but there were
mo apparent indications of the exer-
else of much influence" in the latters'
affairs. In the directorate of more
than 200 companies, termed by the
report Gin the General Electric group"
49 directors held directorships in COM
panies not belonging to that group
and there was no indication of
especial influence over the manage
ment.
Legislation Is Suggested.
The report suggested a necessity for
legislation, caused by grouping of
power companies which had carried
the power industry into the field of
Interstate commerce.
'One of the problems of public in
terest concerning some of the large
electric power groups" it concluded,
sis the extreme degree to which
'pyramiding' has been carried in SUI
perimposing a series of holding COM
panies over the underlying operating
companies. Such pyramiding not
only affects the financial stability of
the electric power industry but also
has a potential relation to the more
general question of an undue con-
centration Of control in the industry"
