A Prophecy Come True
Chicago Tribune)

The interstate commerce commits
sion has announced that proceedings
under the Hoch-Smith rate structure
investigation are at an end. In jan
uary, 1925, congress passed the Hoch-
Smith resolution as gesture intend
ed to convey to the farmer the i'm
preston Of sympathy for his freight
rate burden. Under its terms the en-
tire freight rate structure of the
country was to be examined to deter
mine II each commodity and each in
dlvldual movement was paying its fair
share OF the country's transportation
bill. II not, readjustments were to be
made. Industries in distress were to
be given favorable consideration.
The interstate commerce commits
sion took congress at its word and
instituted inquiries into levels of
western class rates, and rates on cot
ton, petroleum, furniture, iron and
steel, grain cottonseed. livestock. hay,
sand and gravel, nonferrous metals
and salt-as a starter. BY the end
Of 1882 they had decided, as stated in
their report, that Hoch-Smith cases
had developed into unwieldly proper
tionS" and that the country is too
big to make 1t generally practicable to
deal with 1t as whole or even with
the major classification territories"
After hearings relating to grain
rates extending from 1925 to 1928 the
commission reached decision as to
its idea of proper grain rate levels and
ordered that they be made effective
June !, 1881. The supreme court said
of this case, 1T is plain that a record
which was closed in September, 1928.
relating to rates on a major descrip-
ton of the traffic Of the carriers in a
vast territory, cannot be regarded as
representative Of the conditions exist
ing In 1881. That record pertains to a
different economic era and furnishes
no adequate criterion Of present re-
quirements."
The same remarks will apply to the
investigations into freight rates on
other commodities. When decisions
were made they suited nobody, added
nothing to the revenue of the carriers
and generally forced dislocation Of
markets.
| When the Cullom act, which created
the interstate commerce commission
was being argued before the senate in
1885, Senator E. G. Walthall Of Mis-
sissippi said, How long would 1t take
the commission to perform even i'm.
perfectly the duty Of gathering the
necessary data on which to proceed
advisedly, and then determining or
the material collected what rate.
would be reasonable on all the inter.
state roads in the Union? So long

CHAPTER xxxIv

The worn front steps Of the old
Van Fleet house sagged under Mrs.
Barstow's slight weight. The door
bell tangled complainingly. After
long time there came the sound Of
shutting steps, the door swung open
grudgingly.
An old woman with = long yellow
face, and q red checked shawl tied
around her head and in = little knot
under her chin, stared at her
through the crack.
'tYou can wait in the parlor, !"
she said when she understood it was
: caller for the Misses Van Fleet.
How cold it was in the long, high
ceilinged room. How damp and
musty! Mrs. Barstow fingered the
carved mahogany davenport, with
its faded red tapestry covering.
Really very handsome. The heavy
Persian rugs, soft Is silk, glowing
even in that darkened room, with
the strong, vital colors Of the East.
But the stained wall paper, the mil
dew spots in the big engravings in
their heavy gold frames didn't
they eper have = fire? And such
slatternly, crazy locking old serv-
ant!
Tick took, tick took, tick took, the.
bronze clock on the white marble
mantle licked of the seconds sadly.
Doors slammed shut, there came
the sound Of slippered feet drag
ging through the hallway. Then 81
lence again.
Once she stood up 10 60. Il was
silly to wait 90 long in the cold,
inusty room. And still, to come Ill
the way for nothing. -.
Finally, the door opened, the old
woman with the red shawl was
back. "Miss Evvie il out," she said,
"and Miss Babe is lying down."
"But I've como from San Fran
cisco. Couldn't T."
"You could come back" the old
woman said, "some other time"
She stalked ahead into the hall,
opened the big front door. GOOD
day, madam!" Lyla Barstow was
being dismissed like . book agent.
Bang! That was the door closing
behind her.
The chill Of the old house had
struck into her very bones. She sat

While job hunters are still in evi-

are going about their work in q
snappy business-Iike manner. Most
of the legislators are in their
seats when the roll is called and
speed seems to be the order Of

Legislative discussions outside
oil the sessions nave been mostly
on two subjects: beer and bonds.
Economy, the theme song through
out the last election period, is still
a popular refrain; while the word
"abolish" may be heard wherever
groups gather.
For the most part harmony and
cooperation have been evidenced
since the opening Of the session.

tests will develop when some Of

BABY HUNT

former head of the Net0 York
division of the Department of
Justice, reuietDing the inveStigG.
tion of the LindberOh baby kid
ndpin0 and murder case.
BY THOMAS F. CULLEN
NEW YORK, Dec. IA U.N.S0.
Hunt for the Lindbergh baby and
his kidnaper was in full blast
over the country within a few
hours after the child's disappear
ance.
While the police were throwing
out a dragnet, and running out
leads, false and good, checking
in minute detail the circum-
stances which preceded the theft
of little Indy" the then Pres
ident Herbert Hoover and United
States Attorney General William
D. Mitchell were personally inter-
esting themselves in the hunt.
Shortly after the crime, Mitch
ell ordered j. Edgar Hoover, di-
rector Of the division Of investi-
cation of the Department of JUS
tice, to communicate at once with
Col. H. Norman Schwartzkopf
and offer him the full facilities
of the Department of Justice.
Hoover Ordered Aid
On the heels of this action
Hoover ordered that all agencies
of the United States Government
be placed at the service of the
New Jersey authorities.
Apal; from the Justice Depart
ment sleuths, he ordered the
Coast Guard, Treasury agents
and border patrolmen to help.
This was the first time the
forces of the Federal Govern
ment were turned completely
loose to aid in the solution of a
State crime, where no violation
of the United States laws was
apparent.
Gov. Arthur Harry Moore, of
New Jersey, called at the Lind
lergh home at Hopewell to as
sure the family he would do all
in his power and in the power
of the State of New Jersey to
locate the missing infant.
Governor Moore then an
nounced he would take personal
charge of the investigation, an
action hardly precedented IN
crime history.
At the same time, President
Roosevelt, who at that time was
Governor of New York, ordered
the police of that State to bend
every effort to apprehend the
person who had Americas most
famous baby.
