MAY LEAD A REVOLT
AGAINST FEDERAL POWERS

washington, Nov. i5.-Revolt
against the extension OF the powers OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission
threatens to break out in the conven-
tion OF the National Association of
Railroad Commissioners which began
its session here today
the question and hint of The clash
that seemingly impends was shown in
the meeting tonight Of the committee
on car service and demurrdge, the
most important committee of shs con-
vention. which met to formulate it's
report for presentation tomorrow.
The meeting IL said to have been
somewhat stormy many members
contending that no report endorsing
legislation looking to federal car
service law should be passed. and that
such law would give the Interstate
Commerce Commission an almost des-
potic power over commerca.
Another fight Is 20 be made against
the proposition put forward by the
commission that It be given power to
take up investigations OF railroad
matters in States where the matters
are purely local
There is still another difference
over the question OF safety appliances,
the consideration of which lies with
a committee. headed by Edward W.
A. Moseley. secretary OF the Interstate
Commerce Commission. A minority
report on this subject opposing Mr..
Moseley's views will be presented to
the convention.
