was little short of sensational In many
of its features. He declared 1t was
matter of serious consideration
whether 1t would be practical to give
to the proposed interstate corpora
tion commission the power to fix
prices.
Many of Mr.. Wickersham's declara-
tions were the most radical he has
made since his entrance into official
life. There was nothing in the
speech. however, to indicate how far
the attorney general reflected the
Views of President Taft. on several
