SENATOR BORAH ASSERTS
Only Veto by President, He Declares,
Can Prevent Repeal

Tie Senate will vote to repeal the law

Congress convenes, according to Senator
Borah Of Idaho. Mr. Borah is confident
that a majority of members of the Senate
favor this action. although he admits
that in the event that the House should
concur and the President veto the repeal
bill, there would not be sufficient votes
in the upper chamber TO pass the measure
over the executives protest.
Representative Sims of Tennessee will
lead the fight in the House for the aboli-
ton of the Commerce Court. He intro
duced hill at the special session of Con-
gress having this end in view, and in
tends to press it this winter He expects
to have the backing of majority of his
party in the House.
Members OF Congress who are opposed
to the Commerce Court insist that the
sole purpose of this body is to cause de-
lay. They argue that before its creation
the railroads accepted DEGREES hanie1
down by the interstate commerce COM
mission and seemed reasonably satisfied
but that since the creation of the Com
merce Court practically all important
cases are appealed and final action there
by delayed.
