President proposes federal court to regulate interstate commerce
The President urges amendments to the interstate commerce and anti trust laws and the creation of a five judge United States Court of Commerce. The court would hear enforcement and review of Interstate Commerce Commission orders, mandate swift decisions, and unify rulings to improve regulation. He also supports carrier rate agreements with filing requirements and written rate quotes to protect shippers, plus expanded Commission powers to investigate and set classifications and rates.
