In gas and electric and traction companies the largest group is 12-15. The modal averages of these two distributions are nearly identical although there is some differ- ence in the proportion of cases in the two modal groups; for gas and electric companies 18.6 per cent of the cases fall in the modal group and 22.7 per cent for traction companies. In contrast with this showing the holding company distribution plainly shows the largest group between .04 and .07. This is materially lower than the showing of the other com- panies and consequently the modal average (5.8 cents per dollar) is likewise lower. The distinct tendency of holding companies toward the lower ratios of revenue to total assets 1s shown again in the proportion of cases which falls below a certain ratio as follows: Gas and Percentage of cases: Electric Traction Holding (1) below a ratio of .16.. 47% 50% 81% (2) below a ratio of 24.. 79% 84% 94% A very considerable portion of the ratios for each type of company is concentrated within a comparatively narrow range. Between a ratio of .08 and one of .24 there is a range of only .16. Within that area there are 65 per cent of the gas and electric cases, 72 per cent of the traction Fh 13.
