The Supreme Court held that rate making by a public commission is legislative, not judicial, and subject to Federal review if constitutional rights are violated. It allowed Virginia state appeals to be pursued before federal court intervention, and urged awaiting the state court's action. Justice Harlan dissented, arguing the Virginia commission is a state court and its confiscatory orders could be reviewed here.
