North Dakota the Increased schedule Of
passenger and freight rates made effect
i've in June. 1913. by order of the di-
rector general of railroads Walker u.
Hines, now director general of the rail-
roads, is also named as defendant
The decision is the first handed down
by state or federal court, involving the
right of the director general to fix intra-
state rates under the act Of congress of
March u, 1918.
The North Dakota supreme court held
that the act did not confer on the presi-
dent or the director general any author
ity to Interfere with present existing
lawful policy regulations of any state.
The case will be appealed at once, it
is said. to the United States supreme
court by the solicitor for the railway.
The decision also is believed to have
bearing upon the action now pending
in the North Dakota supreme court in
which Postmaster General Burleson's s
right to increased telefone rates is as
sailed. The only question raised in this
action which was not brot up in the rail-
road case is that of jurisdiction. and the
other points are virtually the same.

that they would fight shoulder to
