LEMON RATE RULING
HELD SIGNIFICANT
Supreme Court Gives Notice of
Its Attitude Toward Rail-
roads Appeals.

The recent decision Of the Supreme
Court on what Is commonly known as
the lemon rate case" is viewed in
Interstate Commerce Commission circles
as of the utmost importance.
It Is considered important not only
because the effect of 1t is to sustain
the commission in reducing rates on
lemons from s1.15 to 81 per hundred, a
reduction that affects practically all
shipments from Southern California to
the country east of the Rocky Noun
tains. but Ii Is Of moment as disclosing
the attitude of the Supreme Court to-
ward cases in which the railrotds seek
to invalidate orders of the Interstate
Commerce Commission
In this case, which involved financial
interests of magnitude, the court heard
arguments in one week and returned
q decision in the next week. This is
UNUSUAL celerity. even for an unimport
ant case.
Chief Justice White announced the
decision in the lemon rate case and
simply announced that in four preceding
cases the court had held that IL did
not have the right to revive the reason
Commerce Commission unless It was
shown the commission acted without
evidence or arbitrarily. On the
strength Of those decisions, the order
reducing lemon rates was quickly up-
held. The usual lengthy written opin-
ion was dispensed with In this case
