URGE THAT RAILWAY
RETAIN BOAT LINES
Baltimore Business Men Want South
ern to Keep Control of Steam
ship Companies.

Two Baltimore commercial orsaniza-
tiOns. the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association. and the Baltimore Chamber
of Commerce. have filed with the Inter-
state Commerce Commission a brief ad
vocating the retention by the Southern
Railway and other rail lines Of the Chesa-
peake Steamship Company and the Baiti-
more Steam Packet Company under the
Panama Canal act.
The brief indicates that there will be
commercial organizations in different
parts of the country which will advocate
that many rail lines be allowed to retain
their boat lines.
There is not now and has not been
any suppression of competition on the
part of these lines. and they have at all
times been operated in the very best in
ter.st of the public and to the decided
advantage and convenience of commerce
of the people, il is stated.
