and passed the Cartwright bill was
broad enough in it's terms TO bring
labor unions within the definition of
combinations in restraint of trade
That was not the purpose of the au-
thor. and his efforts were not appre-
ciated by organized labor. The pen
atty provisions of the bill were not
clear. and a showdown indicated that
uncomfortable political complications
might arise from application of the
law, II indeed its penalty provisions
did not make it enforceable. Sena-
tor Cartwright says that the purpose
of his measure was to get at the trusts
and not to club organized labor. and
that to accomplish that purpose viii
be one of his chief labors at the en-
suing session.
CARTwRIGHTsS PLANS
Cartwright is deeply interested in
railway legislation and rate regula-
tion. He purposes to introduce a reso-
luton memorializing congress to give
the interstate commerce commission
power to consider and review proposed
rates Is we'll as established rates. and
he will propose an amendment of the
state constitution providing for the
appointment of the California railroad
commissioners by the governor His
proposed amendments will be sweeping
IN It's provision and In the main con-
sonant with the law of Illinois and
several other eastern states.
Cartwright would give the governor
not alone the power to appoint railroad
commissioners, but the further power
to remove them without cause. This
power he contends would place respon-
sbility for the acts Of the commission
ers squarely upon the governor instead
of spreading it around on elected COM
missioners whose powers under existing
laws amount to nothing.
