Ci e R R he Ohio railroad consolidation law, | p@miiting railroads to consolidate by ! egtering into an agreement and filing | tife same with the secretary of stale, isgnot in conflict with the consolidation povision of the transportation act or 1920, the Supreme Court having dis- nHssed the case of J. Royal Snyder against the New York, Chicago & St. uis Railroad for lack of a substantial eral question. £The railroad company brought coa- démnation proceedings for the purpose | acquiring property belonging. to | yder, and his defense was that the rdliroad was not a corporation, which. der the law of the State, had powers ©f eminent domain. | nyder maintained that in so far as| ! law permits interstate carriers to| ome consolidated it is contrary to the provisions of the transportation of 1920 relating to consolidations | railroads, and that since the rail- ds in question had not applied to r were given permission by the In-!} state Commerce Commission to con- :gidate the present consolidation is null d void. ! £The Ohio courts held that the con- | i dation under the State law was not | i conflict with the transportation act. e Supreme Court of the State held | that the transportation act does not | ke unification of railroad transpor- | tion compulsory mor does it give| wer to the Interstate Commerce Com- | ission to approve of isolated consoli- tions until after the adoption of a plete plan for the unification of | rriers. It also held that the trans- pprtation act makes no provision for rporation of railroads under Fed- 1 authority, nor does it prohibit the States from effecting corporate organ- ization of railroad companies engaged, i interstate commerce; that therefore in(ung the adoption of a complete n of consolidation railroad companies operating in interstate commerce are mpt prohibited from entering into con- sglidation agreements nor from incorpo- @ting in the States pursuant to such agrrrvmnnts. provided that by doihg so | e railroads do not violate State or Federal anti-trust laws. “Snyder brought the ense to the Su- preme Court on a writ of error, main- tgining that the Ohio law is uncon- tutional. %MAKES SHANGHAI HOP. | " Ghang Asrives From Tientsin in| 4 Tour of China. !
