Robert s. Lovett Says
He FavOrs Federal
Rate Supervision
Successor to Edward H. Hartman
Would Avoid Further Conflict Be-
tween State and Federal Laws.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22-Robert s. Lovett,
successor to Edward H.. Hartman as
president OF the Southern Pacific and tho
Union Pacific railroads, told the railroad
securities commission today that he was In
favor Of federal supervision Of rates, but
questioned the wisdom Of, or the necessity
for, federal laws to govern the issue OF
railroad securities.
AS a railroad executive he did not oppose
government regulation Of stock issues, but
he did insist that II regulation is to come
the authorities charged to enact IL be
vested with fun power 70 enforce It.
The present status Of the railroads
harassed on all sides by conflicting state
laws was bad, he said, but a further con-
flict Of state and federal laws was a pos
siblity from which he hoped to be de-
liyered -. ... ,r
In his long association with the railroads,
Judge Lovett has been more corporation
lawyer than executive, but his testimony
today was IN direct opposition to that of
Francis Lynde stetson, counsel for ]. p.
Morgan Co, and rated one of the foremost
corporation lawyers OF the country.
