Washington, June 10-Lawyers who
gathered today at the supreme court
to listen to the application Of the
principles laid down by Justice
Hughes in the Minnesota rate cases
to the rate cases from Missouri, Ar
kansas, Kentucky, Oregon and West
Virginia, were of the opinion rate
making, both in the states and be
fore the federal government. had beer
reduced to much more accurate
basis.
The prospect Of. congress taking
charge Of state rates affecting inter
state commerce lent announcement
to the railroads that they would es.
cape from regulation by 4S state com
missions.
The attempt of railroads to estab-
lish the cost of reproducing their
property new as equivalent to the
fair value" on which they were en-
titled to earn rates was regarded as
doomed. The federal court IN Mime
sosa adopted that basis
Justice Hughes held there was inc
place for hypothetical multipliers in
fixing the "fair value Of railroad prop
erty and the railroads ought to be
satisfied if a flair average market
price" was given their land, free
from any hypothetical additions
Several times the Reproduction
cost new theory of valuation has
been urged upon the interstate com
imeree commission as the proper ba
sis for rate making. The commission
refrained from establishing basis
waiting for the supreme court tc
pave the way.
The problem Of regulating railroad
rates is rendered more complex hs
the findings of the court in the opin
ion of officials of the interstate com
merce commission.
The holding is that states not only
have the authority to fix intra-state
rates but that, even though these rates
affect interstate rates, they are valid
unelss shown to be confiscatory
Thus it is pointed out the line Of de
marcation drawn by the commission
/ between intra-state and interstate
rates is practically eliminated Com
mission officials believe the net re
-sult of the courts decision will Be
to stimulate rate-making and rate re
duction by every state railroad com
mission or legislature in the country
Justice Hughes, who delivered the
opinion in the Minnesota rate case,
was not present at the opening Of the
| supreme count today. Because OF
that many thought it doubtful that
any decisions in the other rate cases
would be forthcoming.
