Splfed II, why does the ACT Apply Oily W
n limited number of railroad men, relative
ly few? The obvious fact is that
there was a demand by certain men for an

surrendered to this demand
What is fair and right must be done
but what is fair and right must first lie
ascertained. When railroads are required

| be charged to shippers so far as required
| to pay this increase of wages. Assurance
was given that no obstacle of law would
) be suffered TO stand in the way of rail
| roads increasing their revenue to meet
resulting increased expenses so far dr

I'VE may pause to ask what is the
significance of this reference to obstacle

able rates and appropriate proceed
ing for fixing Of reasonable rates by the
interstate commerce commission Were
those proceedings and the provisions of
law the obstacles of law to which
reference was made? Were they to be
overcome, il necessary, to accomplish
the desired increase?
The burden of increased rates - af-
