The court de- cbured constitutional that part of the pate inaking provisions of the Esch~ Cammins Law, which gave the Inter- riute Commerce Commission virtually complete control of intrastate as well 29 interstate rates.

The decision, it is agreed, virtually wiped out the powerg of State Rail- roa dCommissions, unless the Inter- state Commerce Commission chooses 1@ delegate them some powers. The work of rate making is such a tre- mondoun task that it has been pro- posed to ask State Commissions to ranke recommendations regarding al- logod intrastate rate discriminations und report them to the Federal Com- mission for a final order.

McCormick and his daughter come tu Switzerland, according to a state- ment just made by Mr. Oser. He considers that the best plan would be to have two homes, one in Amer!- ca and one in Switzerland, Thus both could keep the home ties and old friends. “I was never dowry hunter,” | said the Swiss riding master. “Our | romance began with mutual respect and friendship. When the question of eventual marriage arose, I gave Mathilde every liberty. I told her to go into the world and make new | friends and see life, then if she still | wanted me, I was always kere. “Mathilde returned last autumn and said she could do nothing with young men; she preferred older men and men of knowledge with whom | she could talk sense and discuss se- rious subjects and problems. Ma- thilde informed her father of this last year.” Taking Mathilde’s latest photo- graph, Oser exclaimed: “Look, both physically and men- | tally Mathilde is more developed than her age. Wo have many tastes | in common—both like sports, art, | architecture, literature, languages | and, above all, home life, By the/ way, we speak the Swiss dialect | |German between ourselves.” | “T think both of us prefer a mod- est wedding in Switzerland to an elaborate affair in America, but that can be arranged.” ———— MAGISTRATE RAPS | AT PROHIBITION Dale Willing to Debate Its Evils With W.
