use in the first place, but it has beel.
left Of no value whatever Some claus
IS, such as the publicity clause, are
good enough, but the commission is
really not given as much power as the
interstate commerce commission had
under the 1887 law. The commission
should have the power to fix all rates.
Under the bill, they may take Up griev-
ances, upon proper complaint being
made, and establish d reasonable rate.
How is the poor man going to be able
10 afford to make complaint and set
the machinery in motion? The COM
mission should have power to investi-
gate and fix fair rates whether COM

Then the unlimited count review will
take each complaint before judges, who
have many Of them been corpora ton
lawyers, and injunctions and delays
viii carry a matter over for years. The
rate as fixed by the commission should
be final, except when reversed by the

means the threshing over again of an old
diplomatic controversy which was thor

United States. 1t was out Of that CORE
spondence that the present agreement with
Germany was reached. The question at is

the most favored nation clause of the
treaty of ISIS, Germany contending that
the clause did not apply to reciprocal agree

better than the other bidders.

Complaint of Excessive Rates.


'On the second point of excessive rate the
experience of other countries demonstrates
that whatever good effects government rate
making has had. it has not lowered rates,
but, on the contrary, has made them not
only higher but inelastic Where, as in Rus
STA, rates are low, although not so low as
ours, the railroads are run at a loss and
the loss Is made good out of the pockets
of the taxpayers In England, with maxi
mum rates fixed by parliament in a sched-
ula and the prohibition against raising rates
without the consent of the railway commits
sion court, the rates are higher than ours
fnelastic. and do not decline in accordance
with the fall of prices, or, indeed, in any
substantial degree.
"On the continent of Europe generally
rates are 80 per cent higher than ours, and
show the same quality of inflexibility and
the same lack of adaptation to changing
conditions which we find In England We
have the lowest average freight rates in
the world. and yet our railroads are run
at q profit without, OF course, dollar OF
expense to the taxpayer. Government rate
making in this country-dfrected as it can
only be against place determinations and

of all the rest of the world 10 Of any value
and regard 1t as conciusive-would either
not reduce the rates at all, or, IL 1t did re-

wages Of those employed upon them unless
