Officials of Roads Prepared to Advocate
Fadaral Incorporation, Supervision of
Securities and Extension of Authority
of Interstate Commerce Commission.
Washington. Nov. 110. Ten members
of Coagr a, five Senators and five
members of the Honse of Representa
tives, began here today an inquiry into
the subject of public control and su
pervision of railroads that may lead to
the revolutionizing of the whole scheme
of governmental regulation of the coun
try's transportation lines. Incidentally
the committee Is to look Into the (pies
tlon of fOYernmant ownership of rail
ways, telephone and telegraph lines
and express ompanles.
The members of the committee
which will conduct this important in
vestigation are Senator Newlands of
Nevada, chairman; Senators Robinson
of Arkansas. Underwood of Alabama.
Cummins of Iowa and Brandegee of
Connecticut, and Representatives Ad
amson of Georgia. Sims of Tennessee.
Cullop of Indiana, Es b of Wisconsin
anJ Hamilton of Michigan. The In
quiry wag recommended by President
Wilson in his message to Congress In
December of last year. He described
as Its purpose to determine what could
be done "for bettering the conditions
under which the railroads are operated
and for making them more useful serv
ants of the country as a whole."
Prominent Men as Witnesses.
In order to obtain the views of all
lnte-ests ffactad by the operations of
the transportation lines the committee
has invited prominent shippers, bank
ers, representatives of commercial or
ganizations, railway executive, 0COBO
mists and others to appear before them.
The tirst to be heard are railroad
COtnnnlMtonari of various states who
began their evidence bxlay. Their
testimony is directed chletiy to oppos
Ing any enlargement of the federal
authority over commerce that would
detract from the powers DOW exercised
by state bodies. They will be follovrsjd
shortly by officials of railway labor
organizations who are expected to rag
lster their opposition to the increase
of governmental authority over vragei
and conditions of labor.
Chief interest In the healings cefl
ters in the proposal! that will be put
forward by representatives of the rail
roads, for It is reported that they will
advocate an extension of federal an
thority over rates and securities to the
practical exclusion of state control of
these matters. It is understood also that
they will go 00 record In fav or of fed
eral Incorporation Of all railroad lines
Legislative Program of Railroads.
From an authoritative source is ob
tained the following outline of the leg
islative program which the railroads
will ask the committee to consider In
It; investigation: They will endeavor
to demonstrate to the commission that
one of the principal defects In the pics
ent system of railroad regul.it on (g
the lack of coordination resulting froni
the simultaneous and conflicting regu
lation by the federal government and
by the 48 states. They will, therefore,
ask that entire governmental control
of the rates and practices of interstate
carriers, except purely local matters,
be placed In the hands of a federal
body so that Interstate traffic may be
regulated without reference to Itste
lines, leaving to the state commissions
Jurisdiction only over local matters and
local public utilities. As a part of th
plan. I compulsory system of federal
Incorporation Is to be recommended,
accompanied by federal supervision of
railroad Stock and bond Issues,
A reorganization of the Interstate
Commerce Commission will be asked.
In order to enable the commission prop
erly to exercise Its Increased powers.
It Is also proposed that the preparation
and prosecution of cases sgninst the
railroads shall be delegated to sonic
other agency of the government. DOSSl
bly the Department of Justice, so that
the commission may devote its ener
gles to its administrative functions.
With the Commission thus relieved
of some of Its present duties ami equip
ped to handle Its business more prompt
y. the railroads will urge that the pe
Hod during which the commission may
now suspend proposed Increases In
rates be reduced from ten months to
(JO days, with provision for reparation
to be paid to the shippers if the ad
vaie e shall be declared unreasonable.
They will also ask that the commis
ton be given the power to prescribe
minimum as well as maximum rate
so that In meeting complaints Of dis
crimination the commission may order
the advance of a rate which it COBS id
ers tOO low.
One of the most important recom
mendations for Which the railroads
will ak favorable consideration U
tnat the commission be specifically
authorized to take Into a count In
rate regulation the effect f rates
upon total earnings In the light of ex
penses While the Newlands Committee is
required, under the resolution creaf
lng it, to submit a report by January
2 next, it is not anticipated that the
Committee will have come anywhere
near completing Its labors then.
