UPHOLDS TARIFF CONTROL BOARD CAN REeU. LATE RAILROAD RATES
 WITHIN TERRITORY. THE STATES LOSE FIGHT DECISION MADE UNDER TRANS FORMATION ACT PASSED
 IN 1920.
(wes,ern Newspaper Union News ssric..)


 hington.-Declaring that "com- merce is a unit and does not regard state lineSs' the Supreme Court, through Chief Justice Taft and with out dissent, handed down a decision upholding the authority of the Inter- state Commerce Commission under the transportation act of 1920 to fix state railroad passenger fares when neces- gary to remove "undue, unreasonable and unjust discrimination against in- terstate commerce."
 Two cases were presented to tho court. One was brought by the rail- road commission of Wisconsin and Oth- CTS against the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad, seeking an injunction to prevent the roads of the state from putting into effect on state passenger traffic the rate of 3.6 cents per mile allowed by the government on inter- state travel.
 The other was brought by the state of New York against the federal gov ernment, the Interstate Commerce Commission and certain railroads of that state, on the ground that the 3-cent fare fixed by the public utility commission produced reasonable re- turns to the railroads upon their state traffic.
 Congress in it's control of its inter state commerce system is seeking in the transportation act to make the sys- tenn adequate to the needs of the coun- try by securing for it a reasonable compensatory return for all the work it dOes," the chief justice stated in the opinion. "The states are seeking to use that same system for intrastate traffic. That entails large duties and expenditures on the interstate com merce system, which may burden 1t unless compensation is received for the intrastate business reasonably prOpOftionate to that for the interstate business. Congress, as the dominant controller of interstate commerce, may, therefore, restrain undue limita. tiOn of the earning power of the inter- state commerce system in doing state work.
 Tt can impose any reasonable con dition on a states use of interstate carriers for intrastate commerce it deems necessary or desirable. This is because of the supremacy of the national power in this field"
 Referring to the question that the conclusion of the court would give the Interstate Commerce Commission "uni- fled control of interstate and intra- state commerce." the court declared that such control was unified only to the "extent of maintaining efficient regulation of interstate commerce un- der the paramount power of Con- gress." The decision of the court "does not involve general regulation of intrastate commerce." it added.
 It suggested that ''the action of the Interstate Commerce Commission in this regard should be directed to sub- stantial disparity which operates as a real discrimination against, and Ob- struction to, interstate commerce, and must leave appropriate discretion to the state authorities to deal with inter- state rates as between themselves on the general level which the Interstate Commerce Commission has found to be fair to interstate commerce"

DENVER LIVESTOCK.

The local live stock market started the week in good fashion, every de- pertinent reporting an active trade. Cattle values were steady to possibly 15 cents higher, and hogs made a de- cided gain of Is cents. In the sheep barns supplies were rather limited and a thorough test of the merits of the trade was impossible.
 Cattle.
 The market showed but little change here, the best stock selling for S6.85 and a good grade for S650 to $6.75. Fair steers are quoted at $6.25 to $6.50. Some real good cows sold from $5.25 to S5.50 and one choice string crossed sold for $650 and a mixed load of yearling heifers and steers sold for $7.SO
 Feeder and stocker supplies were light. Attractive light steers were sold as high as $6.70 and dealers were quoting the strictly choice kinds as high as ST.
 Bulk of sales ranged from $10.15 to e10.40, and packers top was $10.45. Dealers believed that had there been any prime heavies on hand they would have sold for $10. Heavy throwout hogs shared in the advance of the mar ket, selling for $S.75.
 The supply of stOcker pigs was little more liberal than usual, most of the pigs selling for $9.10.
 Sheep.
 No ewes of a strictly choice grade were included and the top price of the day was $7.50 flat Other sales were one load at $725, one load at $7 and tuo loads at S6-a0 flat
