THE RATE BILL.
Stiff Fight Based On the Hope That
Law Is Invalid.


The railroads do not feel that they
are by any means whipped yet, and
they are at the present time engaged
in a campaign looking TO final vic
tory in the war started by the presi-
dent over the rate question. 1t is the
expectation, or rather the hope, 70
speak accurately, of the railroads that
the rate law as passed at the last
session of congress will be found I'M
constitutional, when 1t comes up for
final review by the supreme court OF
the United States.
This hope is based upon the clause
giving the rate-making power into the
hands of the interstate commerce com
mission under circumstances which
many of the railroads attorneys re-
gard as a direct delegation OF legls-
lative power. If the new law had di-
rected the use of explicit means OF
reaching the rate, as, for instance,
by Senator La Follette's suggestion OF
basing it upon the valuation of the
railroad property, the railroad law
Ners admit that the new law would
have been invulnerable. But with the
law so worded that the commission
can make the rate by favor, If it sees
fit to do so, leaves the railroads strong
hope that the supreme court will de-
clare it a larger delegation Of powers
than congress had the right to make
under the constitution.
