START PROBE OF ALL
RAILROADS OF ]. 5.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-The most
complete and thorough investigation
/ of transportation conditions in the
| United States ever undertaken by the
| Federal government was begun here
| today before Il joint Congressional
committee.
The inquiry may prove TO be the
first serious step toward government
ownership Of the vast railroad systems
of the country, for the committee, I'M
der a resolution passed by the last SEES
sion OF Congress is directed TO give
particular attention TO this question.
The committee will inquire into the
present system of railroad regulation
and control through the Interstate
Commerce Commission. the financial
and transportation problems confront
ing the railroads, and the feasibility Of
government ownership and operation
Under this last head the committee
vii also look into possible government
ownership of telegraph, and telephone
companies, express companies and 9TH
er public utilities.
A joint subcommittee of ten, five
members of the Senate Interstate
Commerce committee and five mem.
hers of the House committee on Inter
state and Foreign commerce, were In
charge of the investigation when hear
ings were begun today. They were:
Senators Newlands of Nevada, chair.
man: Robinson of Arkansas, Under.
wood of Alabama: Democrats: and
Cummins OF Iowa and Brandegee of
Connecticut, Republicans; Representa-.
tives Adamson of Georgia, vice chair
man: Sims Of Tennessee: and Cullop
OF Indiana. Democrats; and Each OF
Wisconsin and Hamilton of Michigan,
Republicans
Probably the problem of most press
ing and immediate Importance which
Will be considered by the committee
Is that OF regulating the wages and
hours OF labor Of employees OF the rail
roads of the country. This problem
growing out of the threatened strike
81 operating employees of the railroads,
narrowly aYerted by the eight-hour
day law put through Congress In the
closing hours of the last session, will
be t"oroughly threshed out by the
commission
While special commission. headed
by Major General George w. Cocktails,
has been named by the President to
observe the working out OF the federal
eight-hour.law, the joint sub.commit.
tee will so into the whole problem Of
railroad wages. The probability Of
agitation for the enactment at the
coming session of the measures recon.
! mended by the President the last SEES.
sion OF Congress. will force q thorough
| probe OF this question. In an outline
Of the matters to be taken up by the
investigation, the committee asked
prospective witnesses to discuss the
| following question:
Whether or not any regulation Is
feasible of the wages and hours OF
| labor OF employees of common carriers
| and whether or not IL Is advisable. in
the interests OF the public and with n
view to maintain uninterrupted com.

further legislative action regarding
the adjustment OF disputes between
the carriers and their employees and
regarding strikes and lockouts."
Under this head all Of the matters
In dispute between the railroads and
their employees will be considered, and
both the railroads and the operating
brotherhoods win be represented by
witnesses. The National Railway Exc
cutives Advisory Committee. repre-,
sented by its general counsel. Alfred
p. Thorn. was on hand today. with a
formidable list OF witnesses and a
mass OF statistical and argumentative
data, to present the railroads side OF
the case.
In addition TO these witnesses the
committee will hear representatives
OF the United States Chamber of Com.
merce, the National Association OF
State Railway Commissioners. public
utility commissions. freight and traffic
associations, the Interstate Commerce
commission, Manufacturers associa-
lions. the Farmers Cooperative Asso-
citation, and various other organiza-
tions.
The committee will work under pres.
sure. with rapid fire hearings, long
hours and short recesses, designed to
cover the entire wide scope OF the in
quiry as rapidly as possible. Under
the resolution authorizing the lnyesti-
CATION, the committee must present a
report TO Congress by the second Mon
day In January. 1917, and every effort
will be made TO avoid any necessity for
asking Congress for further time.
Among the subjects outlined by the
committee for inquiry are:
Whether the Interstate Commerce
commission is overloaded and whether
its jurisdiction should be limited and
restricted
Whether efficiency and prompt dis
posal OF controversies demands a re-
organization or the Commission. with
various departments assigned to fixed
traffic areas throughout the country.
Whether the present system OF rail.
road credit Is adequate for the con.
duct and improvement OF the rail-
roads; whether the federal govern.
ment should undertake the supervision
or railroad security issues, either by
absolute control or through publicity.
What effect on the railroads and the
public the dual control OF railroads
rates by the state and federal govern.
ments has.
Whether legislation is desirable for
the federal incorporation of interstate
railroads, and what form such legisia-
ton should take.
