PARTIAL CONTROL
 OF THE RAILROADS
THOM BELIEVES THE NATIONAL INCORPORATION OF ROADS
 WOULD RENDER RELIEF.
This Plan, He Says, Would Not Stand in the Way Of Government Owner ship f That Were Taken Up Later

Washington, Nov Examination of A. P. Thom counsel for the railway executives advisory committee on sug- gestions he has made in behalf of the railroads for legislation to improve their situation was begun today by the
 jcint cOngreesiunal committee inves- tieatiag transportation problems Sen ator Newlands, chairman, and Rep F.. sentative Adamson, vice chairman, of the committee, conducted todays ex. animation and Mr. Thom will resume the stand tomorrow and be questioned by other members
 Mr. Thom's testimony was directed amos; exclusively to develolment ef his suggestion for compulsory national incorporation of railroads. He said he believed congress has power to compe carrier to obtain a federal license or charter or forbid 1t 70 interstate com merce. Police powers over grade crossings separate passenger cars Tor different races, taxation and other such questions he thought should De left as far as possible to the states. He opposed limitations on nationally incorporated roads unless a min,mum as well as a maximum rate is fixed
 Answering a suggestion by MT. Ad- amson that the railroads might try out national incorporation on one new road he said the question confronting the pub ic now is not how a nationally incorporated road would succeed, but
 how to take care of the 250,00O miles Of road already ia operation which need some such reief as he believes will le found ndor a federal couuoi,- ed s}s ,em
 INr Thom said the railroads are ai- most unanimously for federal incor- i poratien and that although most rail. road men oppose government owner ! ship there are some who are anxious for it. He declared 1t would be easy to provide for government ownership if
 lhe m ney to buy the roads were foun. | nd said in his opinion, fedora. incor- roratiol would not he a step imrend | ing such ownership
