Public Utility, Copper and miscel- ! laneous groups. The extraordinary interest in Vanadium Steel, which | has advanced about 20 pointa in the past week or #0, was reflected in an increased inquiry for other inde-' pendent steel shares, particularly Midland Bteel products preferred, Sloss-Bheftield and Bethlehe: which registered gains of 3 to b points.

The commission’s re- port recommends the enactment of federal legislation which is contrary to the position adopted by the league. Another reason is that the repert contains 88 pages of written mat- ter and therefore requires much time for study. The members of the trans- portation committee feel that nu- merous exceptions should be taken to the report and its appendices and time is needed for mature de- liberation of its various paragraphs. This should also be done by the shipping public in general. Following the analysis of the re- port, it will then be mecessary for the committee to take its report be- fore the league at a general meeting of the members which caanot be held before February ¥, 1938, the date set by the commissien for filing exceptions.
