Washington. May Representative
Terry of Arkansas, who with Repre-.
sentative Boatner and w. A. Stone
have been investigating Judge Jenkins
anti-strike Injunction, has prepared a
bill designed to reform the practice by
which Federal courts are practically
engaging In the railroad business
through the appointment OF receivers.
Most Of the subsidy roads OF the west
are In the hands Of receivers appointed
bN Federal courts. The courts thus
secure absolute authority over railroads
and as the recelverships run from year
to year, the courts succeed the rail-
road officials in conducting the business
OF the roads
Mr. Terry's bill will attempt TO put
limit TO these railroad receiverships,
In order to avoid the charge that the
courts are going into the railroad busi-
ness. II 10 sud that not only Is the
time of the Federal courts consumed
and their functions diverted by this
practice. but many incidental abuses
have sprung up.
