form OF their office The distinction Is
not confined TO German women, although
reserved for those through whose veins
flows royal, or. at least, princely blood.

NO EXCHANGE OF
TRANSPORTATION
FOR ADVERTISING

Washington. Oct 25.-Under a ruling
OF the Interstate commerce commission
transportation over railroad lines no long
er may be given TO newspaper publishers
or editors I'm exchange for advertising
space in their newspapers.
A protest against this ruling has been
received by the commission from the
Massachusetts, Press association. through
William H. Hefferman. the secretary. Mr..
Hefferman says that the association
unanimously voted TO "enter its protest
against the reported ruling. I'm holding
that the payment for railroad transporta-
tion at full rates in advertising shall be
treated on any other basis than that of
transportation paid for In cash"
In a letter to Secretary Hefferman. In
response TO the protest, Chairman Knapp
OF the commission says, I'm part, after
quoting the section OF the law which
prohibits the Issuance OF free transpor-
tation or transportation paid for I'm any
other way than In cash:
"You are OF course, aware that all
tariffs filed In compliance with the regu-
lating statute name rates In dollars and
cents and do not In any case provide
that transportation can be paid for with
property. II seems. plain 10 the COM
mission that tho law above quoted.
coupled with the fact stated. permits
payment for services OF interstate car
riers only In money.
"A contrary rule would sanction un-
equal compensation by different persons
and involve ordinarily some degree OF
discrimination In favor Of those permit
ted to exchange Their commodities for
the transportation they desire or secure.
IL IL the aim of the law TO prevent every
sort Of favoritism and secure absolute
equality OF treatment in all cases.
This ruling OF the commission I'm no
way interferes with or abridges the rights
OF private contracts. Newspapers and
their advertising space may be freely
exchanged for any species Of property
upon such terms as may be acceptable
20 the parties to the transs action, but the
facilities OF the public carrier are not pri-
vnte property. nor are they the subject
OF bargain and sale like merchandise.
The right TO travel or have property car
ried by rail. like the right TO the common
highway Is not n contract right. but a
political right. the very essence OF
which is equality.
"Conceding that the advertising ar
rangements in question are ordinarily
made and carried out In good faith. IL
seems plain TO me that these arrange
ments must as n practical matter In
volve some measures Of discrimination,
and IL is not easy for me TO see how
an honest newspaper IAN seriously OBJ
iect 10 a ruling OF the commission which
appears 10 be I'm obvious accord with the
provisions and the purposes OF the regu-
lating statute"
