HOLDING FIRM ACT FORMS SENT OUT LGP T ] First Enforcement Step Against Utilities Taken by S.E. C By the Associated Press. First step in enforcement of the #much-debated new utilities holding company law has been taken by the Securities Exchange Commission | with a request to holding units to file preliminary notifications of whether they intend to register for Federal supervision, or to file application for exemption from the act’s provisions. Following closely the commission action came a statement from Herbert C. Freeman, vice president of the North American Co., to the effect that the Government agency is displaying an “understanding of the problems of the industry.” Freeman is chairman of the com- mittee of utility experts designated by | power company executives to confer with the 8. E. C. and offer suggestions in drafting the act's administrative program. Individual Decisions Await, Characterizing the S. E. C. state- ment of purpose as preliminary, Free- man declared: “The rules and regu- lations issued today indicate that the commission in studying these sugges- tions has acted with understanding of the problems of the industry. “It is recognized, however, that the holding companies are still confronted | with the decision to be taken individ- | ually as to the effect of registration | under the act, with its ultimate threat of dissolution for many of the existing | companies.” Deadline for registration is Decem- ber 1, after which non-complying com- panies are banned from interstate | activities and use of the mails. The | utilities, however, are contesting the constitutionality of the act, and its enforcement will depend on court de- cisions.
