Glasgow. chairman OF Michieans new
railway commission. when asked his
opinion regarding the presidents re-
cent utterances on federal control Of
railroads.
Glasgow said that. i'm the interest OF

should handle railroad situations TO
the limit OF their efficient capacity.
Glasgow was given an opportunity to
express his views on this question late
Wednesday afternoon al the conven-
ton of state railroad commissioners.
That the experts valuation of Mich.
igan railroads. made few years ago,
is too low was the view expressed in
the convention by II. p. Gillette. en-
gineer OF the Washington state com.
mission. Gillette said that Valuation
was made for purposes of taxation
and that. in his Judgment. railroads
would seek 70 secure higher estimates.
in case an attempt is made TO tax On
the same figures as the basis for rate
making.
Prof Henry c. Adams, who was
chiefly instrumental In making The
appraisal, was present, but did not
take occasion to contradict Gillette

Jobs to be tackled will be the excur.
sion question. Glasgow says the com
mission expects to be able TO induce
the railroads TO resume excursions
next summer.
