Hams Opinion.

Thornton Hams is quoted as saying
that the jury by returning a verdict
acquitting me OF criminal RESPONSE
bility for the death of Annis, has
placed the 'unwritten law high above
the written law Of the state of New
York" That smart saying might
carry a ray of light into the dull
minds OF the jury who probably didn't
intend to do any such thing.

ASKS COMMISSION
TO fNJOIN RATES
Shipper Injured by Arbitrary
Advance by Railroad,
Seeks Redress

The futility of the interstate COM
merce commission in the matter of en-
joining carrier from advancing
freight rates pending an investigation
into the merits of the increase charge,
has been made the subject of strong
letter written to Allen p. Mattborn,
secretary to commissioner Franklin
X Lane, by the George F. Eberhard
company, Pacific coast sales agents.
The Eberhard letter is the climax Of
a series of letters between the COM
pans and the interstate. commerce
commission.
The question at issue was on the
rate OH zinc lead. white, from Canon
City, Colo, to Pacific coast terminal
points. The letter reiterates that the
business of paint grinding was built
up on a terminal rate of 621k cents,
which remained in effect up to Janu-
ary l of this year. Then the rate was
advanced to rs cents and later TO 30
cents. a charge which, 1T is asserted,
in view of the labor laws In Colorado,
prevents Pacific coast manufacturers
from engaging in the industry at
of the product shipped to the coast
since July /, it is said.
The letter acknowledges the sug-
gestion of the commission that the
complaining shipper file formal com
pIaint with the commission against
the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe rail-
road, the carrier in the case. But
the Eberhard company realizes the
futility of that proceeding, owing to
the length of time which must elapse
before the case can be heard.
I'VE believe" the communication sets
forth, ''it is the duty of the commits
sion. of the public and of all organiza-
tions of the business interests on the
coast to see that the act to regulate
commerce should be amended, giving
the commission imperative power 10
suspend advances on rates on COM
plaint. Until this is done the Pacinc
coast terminal cities will never be In
a position to reap the benefits to come,
and which the completion of the Pan
anna canal is hoped to accomplish"
