Having obtained the injunction, the railroads asked the Interstate Com- merce commission to review the rates which the state proposed to make effective, but which were held up by the injunction. In a letter dated August 13, how- ever, the federal body advised the railroads that it would not pass upon the question of whether state rates are a burden on interstate commerce, as alleged by the railroads, until the state rates actually are in effect. Members of the railroad board to- day interpreted this as a signal vic- tory, in that it preserves to the states their right to make intrastate rates. In view of the federal court's state- ment that it would renew considera- tion of the case if the Interstate Com- merce commission failed to act within @ reasonable time, the next step may be to ask that the injunction be dis- solved. ‘One obstacle appears in the path of such a course, however, and that is the fact that the case already has been appealed to the supreme court for review of the federal district court’s action. By appealing to the supreme court the state took the case out of the federal district court's jur- isdiction.

The legis- lature, it appears, stipulated that the law should NOT be retroactive. As a result old bills are just old bills and nothing more. Since the law permitting garnish- ment of wages of public employes be- came effective, a number of actions have been instituted but no collec- tions have been made. In each case, according to State Auditor John Steen, the suit has represented an effort to collect an old bill. The present law became effective after several years of activity by mer- chants and others throughout the state. They contended that a few public employes were refusing to pay their bills and hiding behind the law which prevented a private individual from maintaining a garnishment ac- tion against the state. Passed in 1927, the bill was vetoed by the governor but received execu- tive approval when it was re-cnacted in 1929, Heart Disease Fatal To Lansford Resident Minot, N.
