FIGHTS. GOODING BILL IN COMMITTEE Elimination of Rail and Water Competition Opposed. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—()— Opposition of the interstate com- merce commission to the Gooding bill. to amend the long and short- haul provision of the interstate com. merce act, was expressed to the sen- atg interstate commerce committee today by John J. Esch, member of the commission, He read a statement, which he said represented the views of all members of the commission except four who had given him Individual statements to present. It sald the majority could see no necessity for passage of a bill “which will have the effect of eliminating to a con- siderable degree, {f not entirely, the competition of rail and water. car- riers between points where both forms of transportation are now in operation.” The purpose of the measure {s to prevent railroads from. charging higher rates for a short haul than for a long one.
