Says Law Is Sufficient.
There is in the present law definite
provision for the correction by the
courts of every unreasonable or I'M
justly discriminatory rate, with spe-
cial provision for the speedy DISPOSE
ton of all such cases and for the pre-
vention of any delay on account of ap-
peals by carrier. Therefore the widely
prevailing impression that under the
present law carriers may at their
pleasure and without control charge
high or discriminatory
rates is thoroughly erroneous"
This statement was the burden of an
argument made yesterday by Walker
d. Hines formerly of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad, before the inter-
state commerce committee Of the SEN
ate against legislation giving the rate
making power to the interstate COM
merce commission.
Due to Commission Members.
The impression as to the inadequacy
of the present law, Mr. Hines said was
due largely to repeated declarations to
this effect by members of the inter-
state commerce commission. He con-
tinued.
'"The plan to give the commission
rate-making power is radical depar-
ture from the principle of the present
law. It necessarily will operate to de-
prive owners of the railroads of any
voice in the management of all rail-
road traffic for which the commission
may make rates, and practically will
put within the absolute power Of the
commission the right arbitrarily to in
terfere with the free movement of COM
modities from one locality to another"
