Japan Refuses To Open Yangtse To Traffic
Cracking Down
On Utilities To
Be Postponed
Copyright, 1888, United Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. (UP}
Securities and Exchange commits
sion officials indicated today they
would refrain from cracking
down" on public utility hold sg
companies that fail to file tenta-
tive integration plans by the De-
cember l deadline.
They emphasized, however, that
firms not filing plans would be e&-
pected to indicate intention of
complying within a reasonable
time"
The deadline was set by SEC
Chairman Douglas in a letter to
the heads of sc utility holding
companies last August 8. He said
that he expected them to submit
suggestions, plans and programs
under the so-called death sem
tence" clause of the public utility
holding company act by Decem-
Der l even though they may be
tentative.
To date, 48 hours before the
deadline, more than half of the
$l4,000,000,000 industry has filed
either formal or tentative plans
for simplification of utility pyra-
mids into single geographically
and economically mtegrated sys-
TENS.
Among the many systems indi-
eating voluntary compliance was
the Electric Bond and Share Co.,
one of the leading opponents of
the public utility, holdingscon'ga!ass

Even a casual glance over the rOs-

sembly shows a very strong nucleus
of anti -diversionists. There will be,
for one thing, at least three possibly

C. Efird from Stanly, president of the

There's Charles B. Park, Jr., from
Wake; and there's Ashby Robinson
from Mcdowell both gasoline and
oil dealers.
These men were actively supported
by every legitimate aid and comfort
the petroleum industry could give
them. There are many other legisla-
tors who were similarly backed upon
their announced intention to favor an
anti-diversion amendment.
Despite the governors cry that S'ifs

extremely strong anti-diversion senti-
