PRESIDENT TELLS
WHY He FAYORS
ALLISON CLAUSE
Says 1t Would Be Safest
to Adopt 1t Out
right.

In order to set at rest a misconception
as to the Presidents attitude on the
railroad rate bill, the following authori-
tative statement was procured at the
White House today:
THE so-called Allison amendment. in
the Presidents judgment, simply states
afirmatively what the President be-
lieves is already contained in the Hep
burn bill: but II there is the slightest
doubt as to its being thus already con-
tained in the bill. the President would
insist upon It's being put in. because.
unless 1t is contained, the bill undoubt-
edly would be void.
Therefore. as Incorporating the ALI
son amendment under no circumstances
could do anything but good. and there
is an honest doubt on the part OF some
sincere adherents OF the bill whether It
is or Is not already by implication con-
tanned In the bill. the President Is clearly
OF the opinion that the Allison amend
ment should be put IN. and this with
out regarding what other amendments
are or are not adopted.
IF the Hepburn bill therefore. passes
in this form. which Is practically the
exact form in which IL passed the
House, II will be satisfactory 10 the
President, who. from the beginning, has
stated that the Hepburn bill would be
satisfactory. But the President would
like. in addition TO the Allison amend
ment, to see the SO-Called Long and
Overman amendments adopted.
While the President regards these
amendments with favor. and would
Ike 10 have them adopted, he does no,
in the least regard them as vital. and
feels that the Hepburn bill still would
be in excellent shape, even without
them
The so-calied Allison amendment, re-
ferred 10 by the President. specifically
confers Jurisdiction upon United States
circuit courts of the district in which
the carrier concerned has its principal
offices, 10 review findings Of the Inter
state Commerce Commission.

There is no need of the Senator ex-
