EDITORS TURNED DOWN.
Ruling Is Positive Against Transpor
tation for Advertising.

Washington-Abou fifteen mem
hers of the National Editorial Associa
ton had an informal hearing Saturday
before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in regard to revision of the rul.
ing of the commission that railroads
can not enter into contract with news
papers for advertising and give in re
turn railroad transportation
Chairman Knapp declared that prom
inent railroad men had applauded the
action of the commission, that the law
comprehensively, explicitly and unqual-
ifiedly prohibited the transportation
by railroads of persons or property ex'
cept in accordance with the precise
terms of the tariffs filed for that pur.
pose, and that every tariff provided for
payment in money. Expressing his
own personal opinion, the chairman
said that il railroad were honestly
and legally indebted to a newspaper
for advertising or anything else, he
saw no reason why it should not issue
transportation for it, but that there
could be no fake" contracts, which
contemplated merely the furnishing OF
transportation for advertising.
1t was suggested that members O,
the association were not precluded by
the ruling of the commission from
making test case If they desire to do
SO, and have the question pudicially
determined.
