the sight of the large railway systems of the for the reason that certain of jts provisions make it virtually Im- possible for small railway concerns to organize and conduct was made yesterday by persons who have been watching the course of the hearings be- fore the interstate commerce committee of the Senate Pointing to section 13 of the tion aa newly written a few days ago by Attorney General they say by Its small con- as must receive par value for issued It is held that buch a requirement at once gives to the well-established railway an advantage over any smaller rivals in that stock is sues of such a line can readily be at while the issues of smaller concerns must win their way to that point Axes are being sharpened for this and other features of the interstate com- merce

the manner of the proposals Section 13 of the interstate commerce deals the issuance of and securities by railroads It is designed largely to end promiscuous Issues and stock the provision In that no railroad hereafter shall issue slock without previous or ous payment to it of not less than the par value of such stock Provisions Concerning There Is also a prov concerning bonds and certificates

It is pointed out that capital stock sued by a well established railroad for construction or other purposes can be invariably placed in the market at par or thereabouts It will therefore little

strong contention that the section was worded In such manner as to Impose jnone stringent requirements on the issues of stock than on bonds It is pointed out that there may found some convenience In the measure by the large railroads by construing a proviso inserted further on in the section to mean that their outstanding bonds and notes may be for stock at par value The progressives are said to
