Love Will Fight Proposed
Change in Constitution

I in its endeayor to fix equitable rates
by interfering with the accounting
system 1t does away with the gen
eral Offices in the state as required
by the constitution The commission
would be forced to depend entirely
on reports furnished by railroads
with Offices in other states and could
not bring the books of those rail-
roads into the commission. We must
know what the railroads take in and
what they spend before we can act in
telligently in fixing rates The pro-
posed amendment would seriously
hamper the commission, and / will
fight it to the end"
Chairman Love says he has received
many letters saying that signatures
are being. secured to the petitions for
the submission Of the amendment un-
der the impression that it repeals only
the one section Of the constitution. He
says he is not opposed to the repeal
of section 8. article g. under the pro-
vision submitted by the last legisla-
ture to be voted on at the general
election next year. The initiated
proposition is backed by the CONNER
cial clubs and opposed by the labor
organizations Of the state
