IL Railroads, Why Not Other Corpora

Philadelphia Ledger: If the railroads
are To be subjected TO supervision and
correction. Why not otherg great corpor-
ltions besides the public service COM
sanios and common carriers? That is
the question which many persons are
already asking i'm relation TO the iusul-
;uIce companies and many other activi-
ties. 1t is a pretty hard question to
which To give Il logical answer. Some
of the strongest arguments advanced
against placing this extraordinary pow
er IN the hands of the interstate COM
merce commission viii be mad by
those who do not doubt that many of
the railroads stand in need of correc-
tion. but who dislike 10 begin creating
precedents which seem to lead the gov
eminent directly into all the concerns
90 fe. on the other hand, the practice
ol granting secret rebates and other de-
Vices which have. in fact. created the
most dangerous and ty%rannical OF
trusts. have raised SO great q prejudice
against railroads that there will be diff
ticulty in discussing the subject calmly.
