RESUBM|T
VIADUCT
DECISION
ATTORNEY GENERAL, ACT
INC FOR COMMISSION,
WILL ASK REHEARINC

Petition for rehearing Of the Guth-
rie yiaduct case was filed with the
clerk of the supreme court late Wed
nesday afternoon by Attorney Gener-
al Charles West on behalf of the cor
poration commission. The motion
was prepared by the attorney general
with the assistance of the legal de-
partment of the corporation commits
sion.
The request for the rehearing is
based largely on the contention that
the court misconstrued constitutional
and statute provisions, comforting
authority on the corporation commits
sion. Under the provisions cited, it
is contended that the commission was
acting within the scope of it's author
ity when it ordered the construction
OF yiaduct in this city.
The case is before the higher
court on an appeal filed by the San
Ia re Railroad company from an or
der of the corporation commission,
the elimination OF an al
legged dangerous grade crossing in the
city of Guthrie by the construction
of a viaduct. The supreme court, in
an opinion given two weeks ago by
Justice Riddle, held that the authority
Of requiring railroads to build via
ducts and eliminate grade crossings
was vested in local authorities and
not in the corporation commission.
It has been stated by the commits
sion that if the court refuses to
grant a rehearing and reverses itself
the legislature will be asked to pass
a law extending the jurisdiction Of the
corporation commission over such
matters as are involved in the Guth-
rie case.
