RAILROADS FACING POLITICAL ATTACK
Congress Meets In Eight Weeks And Big Busi-
 ness Is Nervous
By WALTER B. BROWN Editor New York Commercial Special Lensed Wire to Age-HeraId)


 NEW YORK, Sept. so.-Congress will meet in eight weeks. AS the time approaches, there Is more ner- vousness on the part of the business community, which seems to feel that a sufficiently large element will be antagonistic to the business interests of the country to make the outlook uncertain, to say the least.
 It is the opinion of the writer that these fears are largely overdrawn There will be much noise, but little accomplishment one way or the other.
 Some of the newly elected are for the repeal of the ch.Cummins law, otherwise known as the transporta . tion act, but without any very clear idea as to what the law really Is, or why it should be repealed. For that matter it could not be repealed. It could only be amended. If, for ex- ample, an act should pass Congress stating that the transportation act of 1920 is hereby repealed" the ef- feet would be chaotic. It would at once place the roads back under gov ernment control where they were when the act went into effect. It would revive the railroad admins tration, but there would be no way by which all that has been done since then could be undone. It is silly therefore. to talk of the repeal of the transportation act.
 That a flood of amendments to it will be offered, is already well un- derstood. Most of them will be an attempt to modify Section 15A which is erroneously known as the guarantee clause, but which guaran tees nothing beyond authorizing the interstate commerce commission to fix rates on the basis of a fair re- turn on the. capital invested.

 Railroads Face Attack.
 During the last Congress the at tacks Of the political dema gogues were directed at the federal reserve with a net result that new member was added to the board to directly represent the agricultural interests Also there was an amendment to the Jaw extending the term of agricul- tural paper to nine months instead of six months.
 In the new Congress the railroads are to be the object of attack and 1t Is not likely that the net result will amount to anything more than to placing a dirt farmer on the inter- state commerce commission and per haps repeating that portion of sec- tion 15 which declares that 51b per cent is a fair return and to be used as a basis of rate making until the commission could decide upon some

 The first definite move in the mat ter of carrying out the provisions oi the transportation act relating tC railroad consultations Is being un- dertaken now in the hearings at All bany by the interstate commerce com mission on the question of the con Solidation of the railroads In the New England territory. As at present constituted, the law Is not mandatory in this respect, but is merely permis- siye following the approval of sucf n1id finn hx 7icci ( long removal from the policy o1 some 20 years ago when the supreme court invalidated the northern Pa cific merger on the ground that ii was violation of the sherman anti trust law. It is now recognized thaf transportation is a natural monopol, within certain localities. and the law therefore recommends the consolida. tion of railroads which fall into nat. ural groups.
 Group Discussion.
 The question now before the com mission is whether all the railroad; tof New England naturally fall into one group.
 There is an argument that as ont group these roads, can be operatet much more economically than split III as they are now into several systems There is. however, a sentiment 1T favor or having the roads divided into two groups.
 The late President Harding ex pressed himself as being in favor O making consultations mandatory which may be necessary some time 1T the future, but for the present i would seem that the best plan is t. allow full discussion both by the public and the railroad executives Considering the drastic decline tho nI mo o,-lr raf hno 0 1rn Ir, hAI ,r industrial conditions now prevailing there is not likely to be a continua tion of the bear movement in stock. for any considerable period.
