THE PRESIDENT
ISSUES STATEMENT
DESIRES Incorporation OF ALL
SON AMENDMENT IN RATE BILL
IF ITS PROVISIONS ARE NOT AL.
READY IN THE BILL.

Washington. May 5.-In view of the pub
locations today regarding the presidents
position on the question of railroad rate
legislation and the amendments proposed,
an authoritative statement was issued at
the white house today defending the pres
ident's position.
The statement follows:
1.-THE so-ealled Allison amendment in
the presidents judgment simply states af-
firmatively what the president believes
is already contained in the Hepburn bill,
but If there is the slightest doubt as to
its being thus already contained in the
bill, the president would insist upon It's
being put In, but because it is contained,
the bill undoubtedly would be void.
Therefore, Incorporating the Allison
amendment under no circumstances would
do anything but good. and, as there is
an honest doubt on the part of some sin
cere adherents of the bill. whether it Is
or not already by implication. contained
in the bill, the president is clearly OF the
opinion that the Allison amendment
should be put in. and this without re-
gard, whether other amendments are or
not adopted.
1.-THE Hepburn bill, therefore, passes in
this FORM which is practically the exact
form in which it passed the house, ii will
be satisfactory to the president. who
from the beginning has stated that the
Hepburn bill itself would be satisfactory.
But the president would like If an addi-
ton to the Allison amendment. the so
called Long and Overman amendments
were adopted. While the president re-
rIc mi rtffI, 70 nd
would like to see them adopted, he does
not in the least regard them as vital, and
feels that the Hepburn bill would still
be in excellent shape, even without
them"
Assurances were today given the presi-
dent that practically the republican
strength would be cast for the Allison
amendment to the rate bill. Senator ALL
son hopes to be well enough to be in
his seat Monday. but it is likely that the
compromise will not be offered until the
rate making and court sections are reached
Probably this will not be before Tues
day or Wednesday. After that. few
amendments will be pressed, and the final
vote on the bill may come as early as
Wednesday. q
Many of the democrats, especially those
who advocated Senator Baieys plan for
limited review were inclined to look
with some doubt upon the compromise.
They would have preferred the bill with
out amendment Nevertheless they con-
cede that the Allison amendment will go
through. suggestion was made that
the democrats Should all vote against
the amendment, not with an idea of de-
feating 1t, but simply to show their dis
approval The minority, 1t Is believed.
will vote unanimously for the bill on final
vote.
