C. C. Gets Scheme to Con- solidate Lines Into Five Great Systems. A plan to consolidate all of the rail- roads of the country into five trans- continental systems with access to ports. was filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission today by Fred Brown Whitney of Waukegan, TIL, as a citizen of the United States and a stockholder in various railroads. The plan would unite the Delaware. TR | alley; Burlington rado and lines inte_one transcontinental trunk s . The other four consolidations proposed are as comprehensive. Opposes Regional Mergers. Mr. Whitney expressed strong oppo- sition to regional consolidations, de- claring such a plan seemed rational for the few roads most fortunately situated, but that it did not seem to be the “preferable method for mar- shaling the country’s resources be- hind our foreign trade and it hardly squares with the wholesome national| | spirit with which the people and Con- gress attempted to provide adequate relief for all the roads within the United States. t is suggested that the preferable scientific method, so far as foreign trade is involved, is to provide great transcontinental main lines of traffic and, so far as it is possible. incorpo- rate therein. as letarals, the roads run- ning northerly and southerly, espe: ly from the great lakes to the gul Other Consolidation Planx.

CAPPER SUBMITS BILL. i nkm-] Proposes Repeal of Provisions of Transportation Act. H A bill to repeal the pro the transportation act directing the| | Interstate Commerce Commission to! | fix railroad rates which will guar- antee a return of from 51 o 6 per cent to the carriers, was introduced today by Senator Capper of Kansas.| The bill also makes explicit the in- | tent of Congress not to encroach upon the jurisdiction of the states 1o reg- ulate their purely internal commerce. The bill nullifies the orders of the commission heretofore made so far as they effect intrastate rates. “My bill has the approval of practi- cally all the farm organizations and a large number of state railway and utilities commissioners,” said Senator Capper. “At a recent meeting in Chi- cago attended by grain and live stock shippers from all th iddle west states, a committee pointed to | ask Congress for thi tion. “The situation is so' acute that im- mediate relief is imperative. A sub- stantial reduction in rates is the only solution. My bill will at least help. Since the transportation act was passed, the Interstate Commerce Com- mission has made state-wide orders advancing passenger or freight rates, | or both, in seventeen stutes, and prg- ceedings ure Now in progress lookifg | toward the making of like orders in| six other states.” SHIPPING BOARD |§ MEMBERS IN VIEW Former Senator Chamberlain of Portland. Ore, and Frederick 1. Thompson of Mobile, Ala., are under- stood to have been definitely selected by President Harding as members of the Shipping Board. RBoth demo- crats. . There were reports today that the President had settled finally on five of the scven members, but these | [ lacked confirmation at the White House. This reportea slate included Charles A. Piez of Chicago as chair- i are S man, Meyer Lisner of Los Angeles Rear Admiral Benson, present chairman. Former Representative Scott of Michigan also was mentioned in the gossip in connection with the | 34 appointments. Under the 1aw there must be two | (f representatives each from the Atlantio I and Pacific coasts, one from the gulf coast, one from the great lakes and one from the interior. Mr. Thomson g was appointed by President Wilson as the gulf coast representative and he subsequently was chosen by the old board as its vice chairman. President Harding is said to be un- decided as to the third democrat to é be named, Chairman PBenson and Joshua Alexander, Secretary of Com- merce under President Wilson, being under consideration, Among others prominently mention- ed now In connection with the board appointments are T. V. 0'Connor of Buffalo, N. Y. head of the Interna- tional ' Longshoremen’s Union, and James B.
