the Federal government alone is re-
sponsible for paying the bills for their

I'm a country of such great extent
it is undoubtedly desirable to get the

the full benefit of the suggestions of
the state authorities. both as to in
trastate rates and as to local inter-
state rates, but in the last analysis,
while the Federal government is solely
responsible, it seems to me that en-
10 large proportion of these vital
matters should not be transferred to
the respective states.
inc broad question of general prin-

the practical emergencies to which
