USING THE POWER TO SUS-
PEND RATES FREELY.

SION has announced its policy with re-
spect to the suspension OF increases OF
railroad rates pending inquiry into
their reasouabIeness. II has given out
that IL VIII suspend all tariffs nam
ing general and important rate adj
vances. pending investigation a. to the
reasonabIeness Of the proposed ad-
vanees. At the same time, 1t ordered
suspension of the increases IN the New

other points. and VIII inquire into the
justification therefor
That this announcement viii be fol
lowed by suspensions of practically all
the recent general increases in rates
througa specific orders Is assured
The question OF what course the
commission would take in the exercise
of the power OF suspension OF rate in
creascs has been recognized by rail
road men and shippers as Of the
greatest Importance. The railroads
have been urging the commission that
this vast power should be exercised
with the greatest caution The ship
pers have made it clear that they ex-
pected the commission 10 use the
power given it. suspend all general
increases. and. following the language
of the new law, put on The railroads
the burden of proof TO show the IN
creases are right and proper
Recently the announcement from
Beverly. following conference be
tween the President and Chairman
Knapp of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, was that rates would be
suspended only in exceptional in
stances. 1t Is quite clear, however

WEAK-KNEED DEFENSE OF
STREET CAR COMPANIES.

1t Is not at ali surprising that the
street railway companies of Washing
ton have rcsorted TO an attack on the
jurisdiction of the District Electric
Railway Commission. This Is just
what might have been expected 1t -
a typical public service corporation
plea. When accused. II Is the habit of
many officials of such institutions to
question the validity OF the law under
which the community Is trying to
make them toe the line.
The Washington traction companies
stand accused Of failing to provide
convenient and comfortable transpOr-
tation to their patrons.
They stand accused Of using type
Of street ear that their patrons dis
like because It Is hot and stuffy-
They stand accused OF ignoring the
public demand for healthfUI and com
Portable cars because they believe they
fcan make more money by using UNI
heaIthfuI uncomfortable cars
But 30 they come forward boldly and
plead TO the charge. Do they stand
up and say Guilty or Not Guilty.
No indeed they attack the jurisdiC-
ton OF the court. They say the Dis
trict Electric Railway Commission has
no authority 10 promuIgate and en-
force regulations Tor the conduct OF
their business. They dodge the issue,
Just a. hundreds of other officials of
public service companies have lodged
the issue before them. They don't dare
fight the case out OF. - merits They
propose TO crawl behind technicality
and thereby escape a fair and square,
honest. abevc-board settlement Of the
dispute.
Fortunately. the street ear com
pauie= are dealing with a fair minded,
straightforward. independent body OF
officials. The Interstate Commerce
