CASH FOR ADVERTISING
RAILWAYS CANNOT LIQUIDATE
WITH TRANSPORTATION.

Under a ruling of the interstate COM
merce commission. transportation over
railroad lines no longer, may be given to
newspaper publishers or editors in exchange
for advertising space in their newspapers.
A protest against this ruling has been
received by the commission from the Mas
sachusetts Press Association, through Will
lam ]. Hefferman, the secretary Of the
association.
In Mr.. Hefferman's communication he
says that the association unanimously
voted to "enter it's protests against the re-
ported ruling in holding that the payment
for railroad transportation at full rates In
advertising shall be treated on any other
basis than that Of transportation paid for
in cash."
In letter to Secretary Hefferman. In re-
Spouse to the protest, Chairman Knapp OF
the commission says, in part after quotlng
the section of the law which prohibits the
issuance of free transportation or trans
portation paid for in any other way than
in cash:
you are, Of course, aware that all tariffs
filed in compliance with the regulating
statute names rates in dollars and cents,
and do not in any case provide that trans
portation can be paid for with property. II
seems plain to the commission that the law
above quoted coupled with the fact stated
permits payment for services OIL INTERSTATE
carriers only in money.
"a contrary rule would sanction UNEQUAL
conversation by different persons ana IN
volve ordinarily some degree of discrimina-
ton in favor Of those permitted to ex-
change their commodities for the transpor-
tation they desire or secure. 1t Is the aim
of the law to prevent every sort of favor
itism and secure absolute equality OF treat
ment in all cases.
This ruling of the commission IN no
way interferes with or abridges the rights
of private contracts. Newspapers and
their advertising space may be freely ex-
changed for any species of property upon
such terms as may be acceptable 70 the
parties to the transaction. but the facili-
ties Of the public carrier are not ptIsate
property. nor are they the subject OF bar
gain and sale like merchandise: The right
to travel OF have property carried by rail
like the right to the common highway, Is
not a contract right, but political right,
the very essence of which is equality
"Conceding that the advertising arrange
ments in question are ordinarily made and
carried out in good faith. it seems plain to
me that these arrangements must as a
practical matter involve some measure OF
discrimination, and 1t is not easy for me to
see how an honest newspaper can seriously
object to ruling Of the commission. which
appears to be in obvious accord with the
provisions and the purposes Of the regulat-
ing statute"
