Questions for Senator NewlAnd,

The tendency Of the testimony by the
representative experts: Of the railways
who have been called before the Senate
committee is calculated,to convince the
committee that railway directors do not,
under the existing system, arrange by
vote the rates, rebates and discrimina-
lions in each individual case, but that
the important work IL done by subondi-
nate agents, and therefore it will not be
feasible for an interstate commerce
commission, sitting in Washington, to
fix income from traffic in every part Of
the United States. 8 $780,, 49,.
President TUTTLB Of the Boston and
Maine system has been reported az testi-
flying thathe had never known the direc-
tors OF his road to be engaged In rate
fixing. Chief Traffic Agent WALKRR @.
HINES, formerly vice-president Of the
Louisville and Nashville road, explained
TO the Senate COMMITTEES, by way Of show
ing how impossible It would be for the
proposed governmental. commission 20
fix rates, that the Louisville and Nash
willie system alone had sixty-siK traffic
officials TO take care Of the rates on its
lines and twenty-five or thirty clerks
in addition. Taking as an illustration
one Of the Southern classification asso-
Citations, which he said comprised only
a small fraction Of the territory % the
country, he pointed out that it had 100
men who did nothing else but adjust
classifications ~ Within the last five
years they had made i2,45l changes In
classifcatfons, Of which $3.50 had been
reduced. .,..-r .,
That testimony il important because,
II the existing system Of rate fixing il
20 be modified az President ROOSEVELT
has proposed to Congress, itwill'be nsees-
sary to know what the systemis.
Mr.. HINES has not been reported az
defining the power over rates which, by
the charter Of the Louisville and Nash
Vile system, has been specifically i'm
parted to the directors, 1t may be thai
no power has been expressly conferred
but that rate fixing authority is only
implied from a general authority, given
TO the directors by the charter, TO manage
the affairs Of the corporation. ..... .
Senator. NEwLANDs, who is one Of the
Senate committee, has advocated in the
North Americas RevieB for April the
compelling Of interstate railways IA
take charters from Congress. II that
shall be done, to whom will Congress
give the power TO fi1 rates? VIII the
shareowners have anything TO sayi
When Government ownership follows,
as Mr.. BRYAN has predicted it viii, az
the sequence of Government control OF
rates, then the Government az owner
Of the shares will, Of course, establish
