Luther M Walter OF Chicago, trustee
for the Chicago Great Western and
general counsel for the National In

attack on the reorganization plan by
calling on his associates Ito muster

demand that the Interstate Commerce
Commission be kept "hands-of from
political control"
Expressing personal confidence in
President Roosevelt, Walter said he
"deplores that he should have accepted
a report (reorganization) that on its
face shows such a woeful lack Of
knowledge Of this commission and It's
work.
Henry Wolf Bickle OF Philadelphia,
general counsel of the Pennsylvania
system, also declared the commission
is solely responsible to Congress, and
that once the principles that have
guided it through the so years ARE
destroyed, the decline Of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission or any
other administrative agency will have
begun"
Elmer A. Smith of Chicago, general
counsel for the Illinois Central system,
praised the "impartiality and OPEN

stirring up trouble among our workers, en-
couraging them to disregard our laws, to

the confusion and suffering it aims to

Every man is entitled to his own
Opinion. While we may not agree with
what we read, the views expressed are
often interesting. With this in mind, we
call your attention to some recent OBJ

journalist who is visiting in the United
States.
He doesn't think that any European
country wants war. Germany is bluffing,
Italy recuperating from the Ethiopian adj
venture and Russia not prepared to fight.
