HOOVERSTATEMENT 5 CALLED WARNING Comment on O’Fallon Case Seen as Hint Not to Try to Raise Rates. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. President Hoover's comment on the O'Fallon decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, or at least his re- marks on the effect of the decision, are 80 unpreeedented that they carry an unusual significance. Ordinarily, a President of the United THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. D. C. WEDNESDAY, MAY 22 1929." States does not discuss the policies of | the Interstate Commerce Commission, because it is a quasi-judicial body, and | ordinarily, also, no President is 'in a | position to predict the course that an industry will take when it has the right | to determine for itself the prices that it will charge the public. Does Not Wish Increase. ‘But Mr. Hoover, not only because of | his_economic background, but because of his belief that the Federal Govern- ment is in large part responsible for the economic progress of the country, makes the statement that he is “confident that there will be no increase in railway | rates,” largely because he wishes the rallroads not to make such increases. ‘His confidence, in other words, is part of a gentle warning to the railroads that it would be the better part of wis- dom not to adopt a rate-raising scheme which inevitably would provoke Con-!‘ gress into a consideration of the repeal of those sections of the transportation act which have permitted the Supreme Court to view with favor the method of | valuation espoused by the railroads. Benator Brookhart of Iowa, already 18 out with a statement that Congress | should repeal or modify existing law, | declaring that the Supreme Court did | not say that the Interstate Commerce Commission must use the reproduction costs as the basis for valuation, but merely said that since Congress had directed this factor to be taken into consideration, the commission must abide by the law. U. §. Ownership Still Possible. “I think we can correct the defects of the law," sald the Iowa Senator. | “But if we can't, we can always go ‘back to the plan of Government owner- ship and take over the roads.” | Mr, Hoover does not in his state- ment. point to the dangers of a rate raising policy nor to the possibllities of Government ownership nor the passage by Congress of restrictive legislation, but his warning to the railroads not to { take too literally the Supreme Court's decision, nevertheless is one method of counseling the roads to let well enough | alone. There is some indication that railroad men are not altogether agreed as to the soundness of Mr. Hoover's view and that they prefer not to be committed to any particular policy, though they realize that rate raising activity at this time might be inexped- {ent in view of the agitation for farm relief, through reduction in transpor- tation costs. Economic Viewpoint Taken. Mr. Hoover is speaking really not only from the viewpoint of the political leader, who does not want to see the farm situation in Congress complicated by & debate on railroad transportation costs, but from the viewpoint of an executive who is concerned with the possible unbalancing of the economic structure. Mr. Hoover's statement is an indica- tion that from time to time he will feel free to express his opinion on eco- | nomic subjects, even though they may not have a direct or legal relationship to_the office of the President. i Mr. Hoover’s influence is believed to have been instrumental in the recent reduction of freight rates on farm cts designed for export, and there every reason to believe that many railroad men will see some advantage in the blunt statement from the White House that the Supreme Court decision is pat jo be followed by any readjust- ment {n the transportation policies of the country.

NEW YORK, May 22—Richard Washburn Child, author, diplomat and acting chairman of the National Crime Commission, made public today a letter to George W. Wickersham, chairman of President Hoover's new National Law Enforcement Commission, in which he expressed his personai opinion that dis- tinction should be made between “nor- ‘mMa} Jaws” and governmental command- ments.” “I relterate my belief,” he wrote, hat a distinction should be made be- tween law on the books and social will, as it is found in fact. The tragedy of the national infection of disrespect for law may be increased and not di- minished by insistence that all so- called laws stand upon one footing. “I do not say that the eighteeenth amendment and its resulting Congres- sional commandments cannot be in- forced. I do say that few persons in the Natlon, wet or dry, will fail to dis- tinguish between this law and normal laws. If the ardent dry sees a burglar entering the home of his friend and neighbor he telephones the police; if he sees a bootlegger entering the house of his friend and neighbor he may tele- phone the police, but it is generally recognized that in such case he would be considered a cad. “It is regrettable that wets have em- | phasized ‘personal liberty’; it is equally Tegrettable that others have emphasized that no individual has the right to choose which laws he should obey. The | distinction each emphasizes serves only | to obscure the question which appears to be the first that your commission should consider: Is social will, in the sense of community and human thought and practice, subservient to statutory law or superior to it, particularly in’ cases where obstacles to its orderly expres- sion exist, such as defects in constitu- tional provisions for the expression of workable units of social will or of social dissent “It is with a profound sense of my Gov.

The creditors, in order to find means of satisfying Belgium and other smaller claimants, hit upon the expedient of applying parts of the reparation recefpts under the Dawes plan to the new reparations annuities under the plan proposed by Mr. Young. It is understood they assume the Germans will ‘pay under the Dawes v applying the surplus over the Young annuities to the new repartition among the creditors, they were able to find the sums lacking to satisfy every one. The Germans contend, however, that | the Young plan should be considered as applying to all the rest of the year from April and say that they will not accept any proposal that would in- volve any other system which they feel disadvantageous. Experts Believe End Near. The experts believed today the end of their labors was in sight. Most thought the conference could be ad- journed with something like success after another week's work. An ingenlous system of bookkeeping, into which the earnings of the proposed enter, would enable all of the creditor nations to squeeze their claims into the annuities of 2.050.000,000 marks pro- posed by Mr. Young.

Petit Parisien today said, however, Dr. Schacht would be asked by the 2 ,000,000 marks another average annuity of 25.000,000 marks to liquidate Belgium's claim for a forced issue of paper marks in that country during the German occupation.
