Would Permit Pooling
of Railroad Interests

In this connection desire to repeat my
recommendation that railways be per-
mitted to form traffic associations for the
purpose of comforting about and agree
ing upon rates, regulations, and practices
affecting interstate business in which the
members of the association are mutually
interested. This does not mean that they
should be given the right to pool their
earnings or their traffic. The law re-
auires that rates shall be so adjusted as
not to discriminate between individuals
localities, or different species of traffic.
.must be the same. As applied To prac-
teal conditions, the railway operations
of this country can not be conducted &C
cordng TO law without what is equivalent
to conference and agreement. The articles
under which such associations operate
should be approved by the commission:
all their operations should be open TO
public inspection; and the rates. regula-
tons. and practices upon which they
agree should be subject to disapproval By
the commission.
1 urge this last provision with the same
earnestness that | do the others This
country provides its railway facilities by
private capital. Those facilities will not
De adequate unless the capital employed
is assured of just treatment and an ade-
quate return. In fixing the charges of
our railroads, l believe that. considering
the interests of the public alone II is bet
ter TO allow too liberal rather than too

grave danger that our railway develop
ment may not keep pace with the demand
for transportation But the fundamental
idea that these railways are public high
ways must be recognized. and they must
be open to the whole public upon equal
terms and upon reasonable terms.
In reference 10 the Sherman antitrust
law I repeat .he recommendations made

10 the previous congress The attempt

ing to secure the consent of the boat
owners to carry passengers for 20 cents
instead of so cents but according TO
the members of the committee the op-
position of the boat agents is affording
great difficulty.
The committee will open negotiations
with boat owners in every other city
along the southern coast, notifying
them of the opportunities to be oftered
here and urging them to send their
boats here. The committee VIII also
ask the city council for permission TO
take charge of the four landings on the
outer wharf and allow only boats on
which 25-cent rates are charged TO take
on passengers there.
Public sentiment here is against the
50-cent charge and not little dissatis-
faction has been expressed because OF
the delay of the boatmen in announc-
ing definitely what they will do.
The fleet committee has offered to
nay $50 day for barges, all the wharf
age charges and $40 a day each for
the ticket-sellers provided the boatmen
agree to the 25-cent rate. The ticket
sellers are reported to have demanded

the case on a statement of fact which

While the court did not render de-
