Joseph B. Eastman, Federal
transportation coordinator, be-
lieves that public regulation for
all forms Of transportation is
much needed.
In an address prepared for de-
livery to the American Life con-
vention lin Chicago), Eastman
said:
"Public regulation used to be
thought of merely as a means
Of protecting the public against
extOrtionate charges. 1t has
that purpose, but it also has a
much larger sphere of useful.
ness. 1t is needed for the wei
fare Of industry itself, to pro-
mote order and stability, pre-
vent exploitation and curb
destructive competition and
waste"
Eastman said this regulation
should be coordinated under a
single head. He added:
':Public regulation of all forms
Of transportation cannot be i'm.
posed for the benefit of the rail.
roads alone. 1t must have due
regard for the interests Of each
and every form. You may dis
miss from your minds any
thought that public regulation
will remove highways or water
or air competitors from the rail-
road path. Those forms Of
transportation meet public needs
which otherwise would not be
met and are here to stay"
AS a part of public regulation,
the coordinator said, adequate op-
portunity for consolidation and
unification Of properties of all
kind and for the pooling Of rev.
enues, traffic or equipment should
be provided.

Closer governmental control Of
holding companies and investment
trusts was recommended by the
Senate Banking and Currency
Committee yesterday.
In its final report on a three.
year investigation of the stock
market and frenzied finance, the
committee indicted holding COM
panies and investment trusts as
instruments of stock manipulators
to concentrate the wealth Of the
Nation in their pockets.
Apart from the securities act of
1888 and State blue sky laws, no
legal safeguard has been provided
for the public in the investment
trust field, the committee said,
continuing:
"The Iaissez faire Olicy muir
tured q mushroom propagation
of investment trusts of meal
culable economic significance.
''The exposure of the abuses
and evils Of investment trusts
must be expeditiously translated
into legislative action to pre-
vent recurrence Of these prac-
ticeS."
