HOLTHTS WASTE INHOLDIG FRWS Association of Securities Commissioners Hears 3 Washington Speakers. By the Associated Press. MIAMI, Fia, December 6—The United States Senate’s “baby mem- ber,” 30-year-old Rush Holt of West Virginia, calls utility holding com- panies “an economic waste.” Addressing the annual convention of the National Association of Securi- ties Commissioners yesterday, the youthful Democrat charged that most of the holding companies were “built on water, gas and salesmanship.” Earlier speakers before the 100 dele- gates included Harold K. Bradford, ‘Washington, association president, and Baldwin Bane, director of the regis- tration division of the Securities Ex- change Commission. Bradford, reviewing the organiza- tion’s fight to keep the securities busi- ness free of fraud, revealed its 15 years activity had resulted in the list- ing of “more than 75 per cent of all swindlers, crooks and others” preying on investors, “the most complete file of this kind in the world.” SR RS e S CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.
