leaders would allow the western
Pennsylvania district to sign an ad-

President of Canadian Pacific
Makes Valuable Contribution
to the Subject
THE PEOPLE SHOULD CONTROL
In Canada Federal Commission Has
Regulation of the Rates-No Mem
Der Was Ever Connected With
Railroad, But the Plan Has Worked
Admirably in Practice.

New York, March 24.-Before SAIL
ing on the Celtic yesterday Sir Thorn
as Shaughnessy, president of the
Canadian Pacific railway expressed
his convictions concerning legislation
for railroad rate regulations. now under
discussion in the senate at Washing
ton. He said: 1T is my opinion the
railroads are making altogether too
much opposition to the proposed regu-
lation. 1t seems to me the people are
entitled to regulate rates. 1t is there
fore only question as to the best
method of securing that end. Rate
regulation in Canada under control Of
a federal railway commission created
by act Of parliament, has now been in
operation for two years, and Is salts
factory to both the railroads and ship
pers. Our commission consists of three
members appointed by the government,
each for period of ten years and re-
movable only by parliament. The only
appeal from the decisions Of the COM
mission is to the governor. No mem
ber of the present commission has
ever been identified with the railroad
business, but there is obvious anxiety
to be just alike to railroads and ship
pers and as result the decisions, in
the main, are fair. However, it may
be accomplished, am clear the rail-
roads will be better under government
regulation of rates."
