OF what 1 ought to recommend to Con

vision by which appeal from the order

the court did so because they thousnt
such right to appeal would offer much
opportunity to delay the proceedings
IAN examination. of the decisions OF

fully justifes the conclusion that one
of the defects of the present Interstate
commerce law is the delay entalied py
litigation In the court over the correct
