Hay refused injunction.
With changing conditions and
the general trend toward normalcy,
I do not feel justified in holding this
order illegal and void and enjoining
it's operation, said Judge Hay in his
opinion.
"At this time the trend Of rate
making is downward in conformity
with things in general
The railroads argued that the pro-
posed rates for Indiana will be lower
than those Of surrounding States.
What Of that" was the sub
stance of Judge Hays ruling on this
point. The controlling question in
the case is whether or not the rate
reduced by this order is adequate
under present conditions, and not
whether they are lower than some
other rates that may prevail in ad-
joining States"
THE order should not be annulled
until it appears affirmatively that it
is inadequate and unreasonable, in
a more certain way than by compar-
ing with rates that 7 only assumed
to be adequate and reasonable from
being in use at the present time"
