OIL CONC[ rms TO
TEST LEGALITY OF
PIPE | L|NE ACTS
Bill in Equity Filed in Fed
eral Court Against Asso-
ciated, Attorney General
and Railroad Board

Growing out Of the recent announce
ment by the railroad commission that
It will begin an investigation into the
operation of all pipe line companies in
this state action was taken yesterday
to test the constitutionality of the
pipe line acts, under which the inves-
tigation will be conducted.
A billMin equity was filed in the
United States district court in this
city by the Kern Trading and Oil
company and the Associated Oil COM
pany as stock holders of the Asso-
ciated Pipe Line company. against the
latter and the attorney general and
the members of the state railroad COM
mission.
BILL Is vOLUMINOUS ONE
The plaintiffs, represented by Stan
ley Moore, Edmund Tauszky, the gem
eral attorney of the Associated Oil
company. and Henley C. Booth Of the
Southern Pacific law department, in a
printed bill covering several hundred
pages and supported by affidavits, at
tack the acts on a number of consti-
tutional grounds under the federal and
California constitutions
They claim that the laws provide that
every pipe line in the state must be-
come a common carrier or else pay a
license fee of so cents on each barrel
of oil carried through their lines. AS
this license fee is from 10 to IL cents
more than the freight by rail, 1t would
be cheaper for the pipe lines to go out
of business entirely; and the license
is therefore alleged to be confscatory.
1t is also said that the license fee is
more than the oil is worth.
INTIMIDATION is CHARGED
In case the pipe line companies do
not apply to the state to be put under
this license, in the event they desire
to continue to carry only their own oil,
their officers are made liable to Grim
inal prosecution, with jail imprison-
ment of one year and fine of $4,000.
1t is asserted that the authors OF
these acts evidently doubted their
legality, and for that reason prescribed
Jail imprisonments and cumulative fines
of $4,000 for each violation in the hope
of intimidating the pipe line companies
from testing the constitutionality of
the acts.
