Lively opposition on the part of the
railroads to President Tafts recon-

during his speeches this summer. is
promised today as an aftermath Of the
meeting of the railroad officials here
this week IN the National Association
Of Railroad Commissioners.
The railroad men see in President
TafU's recommendations q menace Tar
greater than any action Of the ROose-
welt administration, according to lob
byists with whom they talked, and they
plan TO fight any legislation in Congress
this winter to the last ditch.
The plan to give the Interstate Com
merce Commission power to pass upon
the reasOnableness OF rates before they
are put into effect and the plan TO su-
pervise the issuance of railroad stock
and bonds viii mean that not mile or
new railroad viii be constructed in this
country for twenty-five years, they say
The Administration plan is being per
fected by FIVE Of the greatest attorneys
in the country, President Taft SeCre-
tary Of State Knox. Secretary Of War
Dickinson. Attorney General Wicker
sham, and Secretary Of Commerce and
Labor Nagel.
The recommendations OF the President
to Congress for railroad legislation viii
be water tight. say the railroad men,
and, il enacted, will not be very easy
TO overthrow in the courts. They will
mean less delays in the enforcement of
railroad regulation.
