RENDER DECISION
AGAINST RAILWAYS
SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN
OPINION IN INTERMouNTAlN
RATE CASE.
U2hoIds the Orders Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, Deciding
That the Long and Short Haul
Clause is Constitutional.

Washington.-The interstate COM
MERGE commissions so-called inter-
mountain rate orders were sustained
as valid on Monday by the supreme
court, which held at the same time
that the long and short haul clause
of the interstate commerce law was
constitutional. Both had been at
tackled by the transcontinental rail-
roads.
The defunct commerce court, pass
ing over the constitutional question,
had annulled the orders on the ground
that the commissioners had no au-
thority to issue blanket" or zone"
orders and might act only on the rea-
sonableness of specific rates
In overturning that contention and
holding that the commission did
have such power, the supreme court
close observers of the interstate COM
merce commissions procedure say is
of equal Importance to the intermoun-
tain rate case itself-if not greater.
Opposition to the per cent in
crease in freight rates being asked
by the eastern railroads-and upon
which the interstate commerce com
mission is expected to announce it's
decision at any day--has been based
principally upon the contention that
the commission did not have author
ity under the law to grant such a
blanket increase"
Copies Of the courts decision were
sent Immediately to the commission
for its guidance.
What the effect-if any-of the de-
cision upon the rate case may be,
can only be the subject of conjecture.
There are those among the well-in-
formed in the commissions proceed
ure, however, who say the decision in
the disposition of the railroads ap-
plication has been delayed awaiting
the supreme courts decision on that
important point.
