Ford accuses I C C of aiding coal profiteers in fuel crisis
Detroit report cites Henry Ford denouncing the Interstate Commerce Commission for controlling empty coal cars and alleged links to coal profiteers and Wall Street. Ford claims utilities, railroads, and mines use the commission to ration coal, rake profits, and force public higher prices while workers are underpaid. He calls for direct government action and criticizes the L and N railroad for inadequate facilities. Ford denies reports that Ford Motor Co seeks coal via Ernest Heasley and notes plants may close.

Tariff Bill Sent Back to Conferees
The administration tariff bill was sent back to conference by the House to strike the embargo licensing provision and the 1 cent per pound potash duty. The vote was 117 to 130, as Speaker Gillett announced the result amid bipartisan applause. Rep. Fish led opposition to the dyes embargo, calling the act an “invisible government” abuse, and the appeal to overturn the decision was defeated 150 to 147.
