A.P.THOM FAVORS
TRAFFIC LAW TEST
Washington Attorney Ad-
dresses Massachusetts
Chamber of Commerce.

BOSTON, October 14.-Declaring a
new conception exists as to the rela-
tionship transportation bears to the
public welfare, Alfred p. Thorn of
Washington, D. c.. general counsel
for the Association of Railway EX-
ecutives, in a speech here last night
urged that adequate opportunity be
allowed for the testing of the efficacy
OF the transportation act and the new
regulatory policy over the carriers
which it prescribes.
Addressing the annual dinner of the
Massachusetts States Chamber or
Commerce, Mr.. Thorn declares that
new constructive transportation poilcy
outlined in the act calling for the
preservation "in full vigor' of both
rail and water transportation has now
begun in earnest. This policy, ne
said, supersedes the punitive and re-
strictive governmental policy of regu-
lation" of former years through
which a condition of transportation
was reached constituting zone of the
economic tragedies of history.
The transportation act, he said, is
founded in part on recognition tnat
private ownership and operation is
in the public interest to be preferred
to government ownership and opera
ton and that it is more equitable TO
distribute the cost of supporting 1t
among the persons who use 1t IN pro-
portion to their use than to impose
it on all the people irrespective OF
their use by levying 1t as an uni
VerSal tax.
The act also recognizes, he said. the
principle that the proper financial
credit of the railroads is primarily
and principally a matter or public
aad only in minor degree OF prl-
vate concern.
Mr.. Thorn said that not only is the
transportation act now on trial, but
also the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. organized labor, the various
state commissions and the carriers
themselves.
"The powers conferred upon the
Interstate Commerce Commission by
this act are so enormous and far
reaching that it will become largely
responsible for the success or failure
of the system of regulation" he said.
The labor unions are on trial, pc
cause the government itself has
created an official agency for the fair
and equitable adjustment of griev-
ances and controversies as to wages
and living conditions. and II. in De
fiance of the conclusions thur offl-
cially reached, the labor org$niza-
terrupt the orderly and continuous
movement of interstate commerce
upon which the welfare of the whole
public demands. they cannot expect
to be sustained by the people to whose
will at last all must bow.
'The carriers are on trial, because
an effort has been made to extend to
them help of a substantial character
in the performance of their public
duties. and public opinion will hold
them to a strict accountability for the
fidelity and efficiency with which
these duties are performed"

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. October

trio Railway Association convention
here today by F. G. Buffee of Kansas
City. Mo-, who, as chairman of a
committee, has been studying the
subject intensively during the last
year He declared that street rail-
ways. because of competition, no

Intensive advertising campaigns

proved service. courteous treatment
of the public by employees. and ina
proved facilities for buying street
car tickets handily, were recommend
ed as means of increasing sales.
Necessity for increased fares is one
reason given by Mr.. Buffee for a
need for ride" salesbanship.
Public utility commissions. cham
bers of commerce and other business
organizations should aid in keeping
before the public the fact that pros
perity to the railroads means pros

clared.
