Senate leaders threaten to kill utilities bill over death sentence
Washington June 20 Senate leaders warned they would move to kill the administration utilities bill if the House does not approve the death sentence abolishing holding companies. President Roosevelt renewed his demand for mandatory abolition and charged a powerful lobby with falsifications. Senator Wheeler said he would vote to kill the bill if passed without the death sentence and would take the issue to the country. The House debated amid a stormy scene with amendments in order, and the interstate commerce committee proposed removing the mandatory 1942 abolition and giving the securities commission power to wipe out holding companies.
