Holding Companies.

President Roosevelt's message to
Congress demanding that legislation
for the control of public utility hold
ing companies be enacted was a good
answer to the tremendous volume of
messages opposing such legislation
which has rolled In upon a bewildered
Congress. The holding company at
best is a luxury. At its worst it is a
parasite, vicious in operation. It is a
form Of endeavor which has been
utilized to concentrate power and
wealth in the hands Of a few, partic-
ularly power, and to make prices all
that the traffic will bear. Millions of
shares in holding companies are held
by many persons, 1t is true. But that
is no good reason for the continuance
of uncontrolled holding corporations.
nor the kind Of transactions which
built up an insult empire in utilities
and resulted in the distress and ruin
of thousands of investors when the
bubble burst.
The opponents eof legislation for
the control OF holding companies speak

auxiliary lines, rolling stock, repair
shops, a telephone and telegraph sys-
tenn, q river feet and piers at Hardin,
and schools, club houses and dwellings
hitherto used by Soviet officials and
employees of the railway.
While Manchoukuo Is the nominal
buyer, Japan,s guarantee that the pur-
chase conditions will be faithfully
carried out Is sufficient indication as
to which country Is in reality mainly
concerned in the transaction. The
line will forthwith become part and
parcel Of Japan's fiourishing South
Manchurian railway system, with
which it has long been linked. Man.
choukuo is permitted under the sales
agreement to make two-thirds pay
ment in goods.
Some Japanese commentators the
orize that the deal constitutes rec
ognition Of that independent" state
by the Soviet government, although
there is no explicit reference to rec
ognition in the documents initiated at
Toxic this week. Under all the cir
cumstances, that feature of the ar
rangement is of secondary impor-
tance. The true significance Of the
pact is that it is a tangible harbinger
of more amicable relations between
Japan and the Soviet. As q direct
link between European Russia and
the Pacific, the Chinese Eastern un-
der Soviet control would have been
an enduringly potential cause of strife
with the Japanese and might easily
have provoked incidents Of gravest
consequence. The Soviet evidently
came to the conclusion that its trans
Siberian transportation facilities, plus
its air establishment adjacent to
Manchoukuo, safeguard Russian de-
fensive necessities sufficiently to jus
tify REIMBURSEMENT Of the Chinese
Eastern.
In any event. the lines complete
transfer to Manchoukuo and corre-
spondingly to Japan's sphere of in
fluence undoubtedly removes from the
Far Eastern situation one of its out
standing danger spots. That is VIC
tory for peace and a consummation
in which the whole world has cause
10 rejoice.
