The powerful corporate interestsengaged in the exploitation of municipal franchises are securelyentrenched behind a series of constitutional and legal checks on themajority which makes it extremely difficult for public opin...ion toexercise any effective control over them.

Boards and commissions have been created in whosehands have been placed much of the business formerly controlled by thisbody.
