While mullnz'“ng':r nnsual’: commerclal demands, e oamissien explained, the ralirosds § suddenly to transport A Comimerce commission. The commission gave no specific words of praise for the railroads, but commendation was implied. Looking ahead, the commission seea that it is necessary to develop to a greater extent the principle of pri- ority for transportation of commodi- ties essential to the conduct of the war, and predicts “broader action of this sort in the neas future.” No hint is given ot the commission’'s attitude toward the KEastern and Western railroads’ pending applica- ftion for increased freight rates to meet extraordinary expenses. Mainly through new powers over car service, says the commission, it has been able ta develop traffic co- slon to virtually assume management of the Toads. This law gives authority ‘‘whenever the commission shall be of the opin-,| ion that necessity exists for immediate action **** to suspend the operation of any or all rules, regulations or practices then established with respeot to car service for such time as may be determined by the commission, and also authority to make such just and. reasonable directions with respect to: car service dquring such. time as, in its opinien, will best promote car service in the interest of the public and the commerce of the people.” Commenting on the need for belfse utilisation of freight cars, the eoFa- mission said: “The co-operation of the shippers operation between roads In the mostiand carriers is worthy of especial economic uge of freight cars. Atten- note. The volume of business being upon car and locomotive building | plants for equipment for use abroad, both by our own forces and by our allies, and to the unprecedented diffi-| culty of securing labor and material, | it is impossible at the present timo! for these plants to do much more than replace the equipment worn out in the sérvice in the United States. It is apparent that the solution of the car service problem until such time| as additional -equipment and facili- ties can be provided lies in securing the maximum use of those already existing.” Recommendations for were submitted as follows: “That appropriate provision be made for punishment of any attempt, by intimidation, threats, inducements, or otherwise, to influence the testi- mony of any witnesa before the com- legislation before the commission. “That the congress fix a limit of three years within which a carrier; subject to the act to com- merce may bring action fox, recovery of any part of its charges, and amend section 16 of the act so as to provide that if the carrier begins such action after expiration of the two-year limit now prescribed in that section, or within 90 days before such expiration, complaint against the carrier for re- covery of damages may be flled with the commission within 90 days after such action shall have been begun by the carrier, and not after. “That Wwithout abdication of any federal authority to finally control questions affecting interstate and for- elgn commerce, the commission be ex- pressly authorized to co-operate with state commissions in efforts to recon- the act which affords the commission | right of access to the acceunts, rec- ords and memoranda kept by the car- riers be amended so as to also accord right of access to the carriers’ cor- respandence files. “That there should be appropriate and adequate legislation upon the sub- ject of control over railway capital- jzation. “That the use of steel cars in pas- senger train service be required, and that the use in passenger ‘trains of { wooden cars between or in front of steel cars be prohibited. ‘That under the Panama Canal act the commission be empowered to permit, subject to further order of the commission, continued operation by a railway or under railway control of water lines or vessels where it will competition on the route eby competition on the route by dardisation of railroad rules be enacted. - ““That congress consider the bility of prohibiting by statuts, 2 appropriate penalty, ‘trespasses o the trains of interstate carriers on the tracks of such ocarriers & places where there are two or mom tracks, or within the limits of porated towns, or at places where the carrier, by appropriste sign or 4 ing gives notice that trespassing tracks is prohibited, M‘l- nothing therein is to be consid making lawful any trespuss would be unlawful under state Mk and further consider the of conferring conourrent j upan federal and state courts -enforcement of such statute.”
