STATES RIGHTS
IN RAIL RATES
TO ALTER LAW
Esch- Cummins Revision Is
Predicted to Give Control of
Intrastate Charges.
SUPREME COURT TO ACT

WASHINGTON, March PA revision
of the rate-making provisions of the
Esch- Cummins railroad law probably
will be forced on the new Congress, rail-
road experts here believed today.
Just what this revision is to be will
depend upon the decision Of the Supreme
Court in a case brought by the State
railroad commissioners Of Wisconsin and
forty-two other States which attacks the
constitutionality of the rate provisions
of the present law.
The decision will determine whether
Congress can give the interstate COM
merce commission power to fix tntra-
state as well as interstate rates.
The commission claims such a power is
valid while the States contend 1t invades
their sovereign rights.
The commission accordingly during the
last nine months has increased intrastate
rates over the protests of the State com
missions.
In case this action is not upheld rates
undoubtedly will be reduced IN many
States, making radical changes necess-
sary in the Federal commissions plan of
rate making. Should the rates be up
held railroad leaders In Congress will
propose that the State railroad commits
sions be made agencies of the Federal
commission. The State commissioners
would be empowered to inquire into
strictly intra state rate controversies and
make recommendations to the Federal
commission Unless some legislation along
this line Is passed after a decision IA
vorabIe to the Federal commission, State
railroad commissions probably would die
Of nothing to do.
