Ripley on Voting Power for Preferred Stockholders. President Coolidge taiked vesterday with Prof. William Z. Ripley, recent writings on the sub) power f eferred stockholders st 1 world. Just ¥ came to White is he why House hims the e declined to whether | r the engagement. The truth is the sident read Dr. Ripley's articles nd was interested in learning more | about the general subject. Some of his had told him that it might become an issue of para- mount_importance and that he ought [to collect the various viewpoints on it. Arguments Pro and Con. In a nutshell, Dr. Ripley's argu-| jment is that bankers who float loans reserving for themselves the common stock of an enterprise, or at least the majority_control, should instead give ! the people who actually buy the pre- | ferred stock the controlling volce in ! the management. The answer made to this by financial interests is that in_a large enterprise bought by the ! public there are sometimes tens of | thousands of stockholders. and that | {even if there we R stockholders it would be im to give them the right to manage u | big property. in rejoinder, the people of the Ripley viewpoint say that there are large companies efficiently man- aged in which not more than 15 per cent of the stock is held by any one person or group. The American Tele- phone and Telegraph Co. is proud of the fact, for instance, that virtually all of its stock is distributed to the public, and not as much as 5 per cent is held by any one man. The bankers s that none of these concerns could have gotten started on such a_basis, and that at the beginmng a definite group of owners of common stock. The whoie thing permits of two differ- ent viewpoints, and the subject is really academic, for it ha: raised by Dr. Ripley or any one else in ecriticism of any particular stock, but more as a criticism of a tendency in floating the securities of large busi- ness enterprises. Governmental Regulation Urged. The suggestion mrde by Dr. Ripley that the subject should be exam- ned with a view to governmental reg- ulation, but this would, after all, be a matter for the States to handle under their corporation laws unless, of “ederal Government were brought into jurisdiction through power to forbid the s, There are evidences that the Federal Government is watching carefully somé of the mergers which are plan. | ned, but the action taken in the Ward | bread combination was the result of that there would be a mo- v in restraint of trade. Whatever the purpose of Dr. Rip- ley’s visit, it is certain to focuss again the attention of the financial world jon the crusade started by the Ha: vard professor, wh, article printed in the Atlantic Monthly s red up 2 flood of editorial comment ind diseu among pub- lic utility companies, whose methods ed. $20, 000 000 Churter Is Filed.
