Weakness of systen.
It is pointed out that satisfactory regu-

telephone rates has been accomplished
only through the investing OF an agency.
semt-independent Of Congress. with power
TO adjust rates. In these cases. the Inter-
state Commerce Commission is that
agency. Its strength lies In Its tndepend-
ance Of legislative or political influence.
Its decisions are subject TO review only
by the United States courts 1t would be
hard to find a more generally popular
governmental agency than the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
One Of the obvious weaknesses of the
parcel post statute In that body similar
TO the Interstate Commerce Commission
and with similar powers Is not given ex-

Postmaster General Is a Cabinet oficer.

unanimous in condemning the proposed

Representative Lewis, of Maryland. one
Of the most ardent advocates OF the

The repeal Of that part Of the parcel
