CLAIM BOARD HAS
ITS JURISDICTION

Entire confidence that the publ,
utilities commission has power no
only 10 investigate the Inter-Isian(
Steam NAVIGATION Company rates bu
to make rulings regarding those rates
as well IS expressed by A. j. !Gignoux
commissioner and acting chairman
and w. T. Garden, commissioner. O
that body. ~ -
Opposed to this opinion Is. that Of
Attorney L. J. Warren of the shipping
company, that while the authority Of
the commission 10 investigate cases
may be argued. no ruling which IL may
submit can be held authority in view
OF the fact that the company IL nov
under the federal shipping board
Warren Gives His Views Ut.
1T might be possible for the utilities
commission TO act as a representative
Of the people just rs a shipper might
press his own claims" says Attorney
Warren, but whatever report II has
to make would 60 TO the higher body
The federal body certainly must ap
prove the Question of proper rates
We are making arrangements now 10
file our papers under the latter
board. :.".
In my opinion, the power Of the
public utilities commission over the
1nter-Island, not only for investigating
but also for controlling rates of the
company, said Garden today, lis con.
current with the power Of the shipping
board. II s%s
As far as am concerned. the in.
yestigation by the public utilities com.
mission and whatever ruling It shall
arrive at viii continue just the same
as IL has done.
Jurisdiction Is Concurrent" IT,
Garden bases his conclusion on the
authority OF the commission with re-
gard to the interstate commerce COM
mission, where he says power Is CON
current by virtue OF Act 1876, Revised
Session Laws. 1915, and as amended
by Congress in House Bill "a. He
says the public utilities commission is
a creature Of Congress, as Is the inter
state commerce body.
"The shipping board is also q crea.
tnre OF Congress, just as the inter.
state commerce commission, he
says II Is true that the act creating
the shipping board Is later legislation
than IS the congressional action on
the utilities body. The shipping
board act, however, does not pnrport
to directly repeal the congressional
action with regard to the public utili.
ties commission and nothing In 1t Is
In any way Inconsistent with the
powers OF the latter.
"The two can very wei operate con.
currently Just as does the utilities and
interstate commerce bodies"
Company Not seeking Shelter
In stating that the steamship com.
pany is preparing to file its accounts
with the federal shipping board
created BY the last Congress, Attor.
ney Warren made II clear today that
the company Is not seeking shelter.
He saysethe animation, had gone out
that the company had something to
hide and that II stayed with the case
until Il was finished.
Judge E. M. Watson declined from
making any comment on the situation
today. having only come into the office
Of attorney for the commission recent
". Commissioner Gisnohx expresses
the emphatic belief that the utilities
commission has as much authority to
60 ahead with Investigations and rec.
as ever.

YOUR PATRIOTIC
DUTY
BUY A LIBERTY
BOND

Danger for the complete success
of the Liberty Loan turks in over-con-
fidence.
The announcements in the press of
large applications by Institutions and
men of great wealth are apt to en-
gender the comfortable feeling that
all will be we'll without the efforts of
the small subscribers. This line of
thought together with the idea that
through Observation-Disclosures al
lotments may not be made, must be
dispelled from the mind of every pa
triotic citizen.
1t is not sufficient that this issue
should be merely bare success. 1t
must be striking demonstration of
the overwhelming strength of purpose
animating all sincere friends of Lib
erty to bring the war to speedy and
successful termination.
The eyes Of the enemy are watch
ing this preliminary skirmish and our
victory must be made effective by a
truly popular subscription exceeding
MANY TINES the amount offered.
1t behooves every INDIVIDUAL to
let his action be entirely guarded by
the conviction that upon HIS Ut
MOST Personal EFFORT depends
the only result worthy of the great
cause which all free men desire and
INTEND to make triumphant. Hest
fancy as to the Importance of the
amount available should not be al
lowed to prevail The Bonds are in
denominations as low as $50, and all
Purchasers of one of these will con-
tribute their quota towards swelling
the volume Of subscriptions.
No thought OF the detail work at
tendant upon subscribing to the loan
need deter. We will - as we have
already stated attend to that free
Of any charge. All that is necessary
Ia that we receive notification of the
amount desired.
