Railroad companies and big ship

extorting special rates from the car

They must desist from discrimina-
tions Tor the future, and they must
pay roundly for their violations of the
law In the past. These discrimina-
tons have been unlawful for twenty
one years. From time to time since
the original interstate commerce law
was passed congress- has added enact
ments designed TO make the law more
effective, for the carriers and ship
pers found 1t easy TO eyade or TO vio-

there is enough law. enough energy

common carriers, and as such. both
