Not Reasonable Regulation Sparks House Battle Over Wheeler Rayburn Bill
Washington June 21 The House shows opposition to eliminating unnecessary utility holding companies as in the Wheeler Rayburn bill sent by the Senate. A secret administration poll indicated the death sentence provision falls 30 to 40 votes short, prompting hopes to retain abolition through conference. Gadren leader of utility executives denounces federal intrusion, backs amendments for a strict regulatory measure, and endorses the House committee plan to strike elimination. The subcommittee expected to report soon with regulatory language replacing outright removal, setting up a likely floor fight next week.

Gadsden argued the bill imposes drastic restrictions that would lead to government ownership. He said sponsors aim to attack all holding companies and move business from Americans to bureaucrats. The clash centers on Roosevelt's message urging elimination of unnecessary holding companies and Wheeler-Rayburn opposition backed by utility lobbyists.
