ment Of the proposed law to restore to
the Interstate Commerce Commission the
railway rate making powers now vested
in the President was urged before the

cism OF the extent of power conferred

"As representative of several hundred
thousand shippers belonging to the live

portant that the suspended powers OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission be
restored during the next six months
than ever before.

courts, the Federal control act has con-
ferred upon the President Legislative
