getting, their opponents, the railroad
general counsel, would not be In such
hopeful mood
The first tactics of the railroads, then,
will be to show that the Adamson act
has nothing whatsoever to do with the
health and morals Of the trainmen--
these being the grounds upon which
hour laws have hitherto been
supported. They will show, in the first
place, that a law passed by Congress
eight years ago makes it legitimate for
railroad men to work up to sixteen
hours, and that, owing to the extraordi-
nary conditions Of train operation, it is
impossible to put an eight-hour day into
effect. And here the Supreme Court
will be treated to such a detailed sur
vey of the railroad industry as mas
never before been attempted. Upon the
records Of the court will be produced the
,minutest detail of railway operation
switching and hosting, fast and slow
freights, the geography of railway di-
visions, the lengths of runs, the time off
between runs, the whole tangled field of
moving the country's rolling stock
will be gathered into volumes Of teSti-
mony; all for the purpose Of showing
that, not even with the best intentions
in the world, could an eight-hour day be
put into operation.
The railroad lawyers hope, moreover,
by tagging and tabulating the whole
railroad industry, to show that not only
is the law unavoidable, but that, in view>
of all the varieties of wage and route
schedules, it is impossible to understand
exactly what is to be done with the
Adamson law. Freight employees, for
example, are paid on the basis of hum
dred-mile run, which often takes more
than ten hours. The railroad lawyers
will ask, more or less rhetorically, how
an eight-hour day can be applied to a
100-mile run. And they will be at pains
to show that one often can't end rail-
road run at the end of eight hours with
cut leaving trains and trainmen strand
ed FIVE miles from nowhere.
That the eight-hour law is not an
eight-hour law is, for the railroads, only
the beginning of the work. 1t clears
the legal tracks for the question of
whether Congress has the right to reg
ulate wages. under its powers to regU-
late interstate commerce. Here the gen
eral counsel, equipped with thorough
knowledge of the opinions of the Su
preme Court in this direction, feel they
have a particularly effective line of at
tack. Every precedent is momentous
weapon in constitutional law. and the
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-11-26

ing sought to prevent the government
attorneys from indicting the railroads
for violations of the Adamson act. At
tention is being concentrated on one
case, at present, that of the Missouri,
Oklahoma & Gulf Railroad, which first
filed its suit in Kansas City. At the
present writing District Judge Hook
had handed down a decision that the
law was unconstitutional. This, far
from settling the matter, was merely
the first step in hurrying the suit on to
the final scene Of the conflict, in the
Supreme Court at Washington.
The railroads are insisting that test
case be made on one of the larger rail
roads, rather than on the bankrupt road
which secured the first decision. The
Government and the General Counsel
will come to an agreement within the
next few days, and if one satisfactory
test can be determined upon, all the
other suits will be withdrawn.
The battle officially is to be between
this one railroad and the government
of the United States. But behind both
sides Will be whole armies of legal
aid. Indeed, the Kansas City judge
has requested all the railroads involved
to have legal representatives at the Su-
preme Court hearings. And the "broth-
erhoods, although they will have 20 sit
on the sidelines, are not placidly de-
pending on the efforts of the Depart
ment of Justice The Attorney General
mas been in close touch with the brother
hood leaders for expert information.
One of the important bones of conten-
ton will be the mileage method of pay
ment at present largely in vogue, and
the trainmen leaders are seeing to it
that the Supreme Court hears about
that from them, as well as from their
employers.
The fact that the railroads have taken
the offensive and the bills filed IN the
Kansas City suits indicate the main
lines of the legal battle. The railroads
will practically rest their case on the
unconstitutionality of the measure from
the very face of the law, although they
viii try to show by a mass of technical
evidence that the law is absolutely I'M.
workable and inapplicable to railroad
conditions. The important point, from
the legal standpoint, is to prove to the
court that the law is not an eight-hour
law at all, but an arbitrary increase in
wages. They have carefully surveyed
the precedents of the last twenty years
of Supreme Court proceedings and real
ize that bona-fde eight-hour law would.
