MAKES ATTACK upon
RAILROAD RATE BILL
Eminent California ATTORNEY
Does Not Approve the Meas
ure Now Pending.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, April l2-Joseph
O. Call, special counsel for the United
States Government in a number Of i'm
portant cases against the railroads in
the Southwest. In an Interview TODAY
makes an attack upon the Hepburn rail-
way rate bill, now pending in the Sen
ate. and says that, in his opinion, 1t Will
fail utterly to correct the abuses
aimed at.
Is Special Counsel
Mr.. Call is also special counsel for the
Interstate Commerce commission and con-
Quoted the recent litigation in the Su-
preme Court of the United States on be-
fornia against the transcontinental rail-
roads to secure routing privileges and
lower freight rates.
Will Be Disappointment.
Mr., Call SAID:
In ny opinion the Hepburn Doliver
bill. in its present form. is Of no bcneflt
to shippers. l predict thnt IL It passes
the Senate In that form II Will prove
a great DISAPPOINTMENT to all who look
Tor benefit through the measure. l am
sure that it is impossible to reduce ex-
orbitant rates under the bill now before
ments 1t does not require any such
amendments as those suggested In favor
OF the railroads to destroy Its usefulness"
Where Bill Is Weak.
Mr.. Calls principal objections TO the
bill arc that Its provisions do not cover
connecting railroads unless they have en-
tered into joint tariff; that the Inter
state Commerce commission is not en-
powered to make any order or regula-
tion except upon formal complaint, that
section of the bill ostensibly author
lies the commission, after hearing. to es~
tablish through routes and Joint rates.
but in conditions annexed takes away that
power, that tho bill falls to provide that
any person can sue q common carrier for
damages arising under the commerce act
In the district where the railroad runs.
but requires the plaintiff TO sue in the
district where the principal Office CT the
corporation may be- which In nearly every
case would probably be at some dis
tant point.
Mr. Call points out many other alleged
defects In the proposed law. which he
AYERS will render Its operation nugatory.
