fishing a valuation on the properties

The commission will inform the Fed
Grafton of Citizens Association repre-
sentatives, who are to confer with it
Thursday morning, that any action
looking toward amalgamation of the
traction lines or universal transfers
must wait until the valuations are
completed.
With respect to the merger PROPOSE
ton, which Is Endorsed by the fedora
ton, the commissions attitude is, first.
that it has power to authorize, but not
to order, a combining Of the railway
lines, and, second, that such authorize
ton will be granted only when the
commission is convinced it is in the in
terest of the public.
In other words. the commission Will
not be likely to initiate any action
looking toward a merger, but II the
companies submit proposal the utili-
ties board will consider II on its merit
and in the light Of the valuations to
be established, and render decision
accordingly.

Benefits Claimed by Merger.

Should the lines be merged, univer-
sal transfers would follow automatical-
ly, and this is one of the main reasons
back of the federation's stand for
amalgamation. Should they continue
under separate management, as at
present, the federation will make a
separate fight for universal transfers.
Another big benefit that would be
secured by merger. it Is commended,
is that there could be a rerouting of
tracks so as to relieve congestion at
points where it is now seriously ham
pering traffic

railway service are to be discussed at

Views of Senator Works.

AN analysis of the evidence has led me
irresistibly to conclude that the nomi-
nation should be rejected" said SEN
ator Works II am greatly in sympathy
with much of the work that Mr.. Bran
deis has been doing to better economic.
industrial md social conditions. Much
of this l M convinced he has done
generously. unselfishly and for the
common good.
some of his friends say he IS a rad
ical and for that reason has offended
the conservatives. That may be no re-
proach, but the temperament that has
made him many enemies would detract
from his usefulness as judge. He Is
of the material that makes good advo-
Gates, reformers and crusaders, but not
good or safe judges. To place a man
on the Supreme Court bench who rests
under a cloud would be a grievous mis-
take.

Senate Judiciary Committee
Not Ready to Submit the
Findings Today.
VARIANCE IN THE VIEWS
EXPRESSED BY MEMBERS
Three of Subcommittee Favor Con-
firmation, Two Oppose; One to
Report Tomorrow.

Action on the nomination Of Louis D.
Brandeis to the Supreme Court Of the
United States was postponed today by
the Senate judiciary committee after II
had received reports from all but one
of the five senators on the subcommit-
tee which held hearings.
Senator Fletcher, democrat. made q
report merely recommending conhrma-
ton. Senator Walsh made q long report
and Senator Chiffon, the third democrat,
will submit a report tomorrow, favor
ing confirmation. Senators Cummins
and Works made reports against con.
firmation.
Senator Walsh's Report.
Senator Walsh declared in his report:
THE real crime of which this man is
guilty is that he has exposed the IN
.auities of men in high places in our
financial system. He has not stood In
awe of the majesty of wealth.
'It is easy for brilliant lawyer SO
to conduct himself as to escape caiumny
and vilitication. All he needs to do Is
to drift with the tide. If he never
assails the doer of evil who stands
high in the market place either in
court or before the public he will have
no enemies or detractors or none that
he need heed.
The man who never represents the
public or the impecunious citizen in
any great forensic contest, but always
the cause of corporate wealth. never
has these troubles. 1t is always the
other fellow whose professional char
acter is little below par"
