WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.E In it's first decision on the right of the fed eral government under the transpor- tation act 10 require railroad rates within a state to correspond to the higher levels of interstate tariffs, the interstate commerce commission today ordeSed the railroads of New York to establish passenger and bag gage rates on intrastate traffic con forming to advanced interstate sched- ules. Similar proceedings sre pend ing affecting more than half the states in the union.
 By it's order of last August the commission authorized in the New York region an increase of 40 per cent in freight rates, 20 per cent in pas (enger rates, excess baggage charges and rates on milk and cream and also surcharge of 90 per cent on Pullman accommodations.

 The federal body held that theIG was a general obligation resting up- on it "tc exercise control over in- trastate commerce so far as it af- fleets interstate commerce"
 Power of Congress Shown
 The decisive factor" the ruling said. "is whether the rates under consideration injuriously affect in terstate comn1erce.'
 Congress directed that rates be all lowed which would yield an aggre- gate return of from , 12 to 6 per cent on the value of tile railway pro- pertice the commission stated, add ing:
 There can be no doubt of the power of congress to devise and pro- vide for carrying into effect plan for assuring the nations interstate railroads fair return upon the val ue of their property and the full con- trol of congress in this matter is not to be denied on the ground that the carriers aggregate earnings are
