Their report today, prior to ac-

victory for the White House on the
Presidents demand for ultimate
dissolution of unessential utility
holding companies.
Lanky Chairman Burton K.
Wheeler Cd, MONTH of the Senate

and dean of the Senate confereeS,
was jubilant. 1T certainly was not
any victory for the utility crowd"
he said. The bill is good one
although it does not go as far as
1 should like"
All along the line, House con-
ferees, led by Chairman Sam Ray

compromises were made and House
opponents of the New Deal power
program termed it complete sur
render"
Rep. Rayburn, co-author of the
original Wheeler Rayburn utility
control bill, was elated at prospects
of it's enactment before adjourn
ment.
Briefly, the bill declares that it
is in the public interest to regulate
public utility systems. 1t prescribes
that there shall be no more than
one holding company and sub
holding company for each integral
ed public system, except under such
conditions as the Securities and Ex-
