July Stirred by the recent publication of what purported to be substantial portions of the committee's report or its recom-' mendations, Chairman Stanley today declared he would no longer be silent and would from time to time give out the conclusions of his colleagues on the committee. The committee, he says, agreed that no resolution for dissolution would be included In the report when the government suit against the Steel corporation was filed.

Some of the things the democratic members of the committee really have agreed upon are that the records of the Investigating committee shall be open to congress. The democrats have agreed to a bill to prevent any stockholder or official of tho Steel company from serving as a director of an interstate commerce carrier. Tho majority of the committee has to a proposed amendment of section four of the Sherman act giving any Injured party the right to sue on an equality with the government to enjoin a conspiracy In restraint of trade. As the law stands the Injured party may sue for triple damages. Under the proposed amendment one would equal with the government to seek a preventative decree as well as the right to collect dam- agea.
