NEW MOVE is MADE
TO CONTROL RATES

Washington, July 14.-An international
railway commission with supervisory au-
thority over the railroads of the United
States and Canada probably will be the
result Of action taken today by this gov
ernment In the appointment of Chairman
Martin A. Knapp of the interstate COM
merce commission as the representative
of the United States to confer with Hon
John B. Mabe, chief of the railway COM
mission of Canada.
Announcement of the appointment OF
Judge Knapp was made by the depart
ment today. The appointment of Judge
Knapp and Mr.. Mabe Is the result Of q
considerable period of correspondence ans
diplomatic interchanges between the
United States and Canada.
Over year ago the subject was
broached first In letter from Mr.. Mabe
to Judge Knapp. 1t was pointed out that
the increasing traffic between the United
States and Canada would render full
control over rates in the future impos-
sible unless some joint action was taken
now. 1t was realized the acquisition OF
Canadian terminals by American roads
and of American roads and terminals
by Canadian railways presented ever-in-
creasine difficulties.
