NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-Market
value of all outstanding bond
issues of municipalities is approx
imately $19,2Oo,0O0,oOO, Louis S.
Lebenthal, head of the odd-lot
municipal bond firm of Lebenthal
& Company, stated yesterday.
This makes the average indebt-
edness less than $4,000 per com.

Various authorities in the industry

There appears to be little doubt in

Ford production for last week as

Advantages of group management through

are put out of business, who can say what
other kinds of companies will next receive
similar attention? And who can estimate
the billions that would be lost to owners Of
securities?
INVASION OF RIGHTS OF STATES
This legislation is an invasion of rights of
the States. There are State commissions
which regulate rates and protect the in
vestor. There are State laws to prevent
abuses by CORPORATIONS. There is no neces-
sity for the Federal Government to usurp
the powers of the States to regulate cor
porations.
THE RIGHT TO DESTROY PROPERTY
There are several million individual holders
of utility holding company securities. The
real issue is not rates to consumers; it is
ownership of stocks and bonds. The new
legislation would destroy the property of
these American citizens.
