Interstate Commerce Commission declares federal supremacy over state railroad rate controls
The Interstate Commerce Commission ruled four to two that railroads must set interstate rates to ensure justice between communities across state lines, even when a state order lowers within state traffic rates. Louisiana's dispute with Saint Louis and Southwestern Railway highlighted tensions between federal authority and state bodies. The decision, led by Commissioner Lane and supported by Chairman Proudy, asserts national primacy in regulating interstate commerce and mandates Texas and Louisiana routes adjust to uniform rates, aiming to curb discriminatory pricing and protect interstate traffic.

Harvard Observatory Maps Sky Covering Five Acres
Cambridge March 24 Harvard University astronomers report a photometric map of the entire sky intended to measure about 500,000 light years across. If assembled, the map sections would cover more than 6 acres and each strip runs roughly 440 by 55 feet. The annual report notes 60 mixed-year efforts, 78 photos produced, and a long-term program begun thirty years ago with $2,000,000 spent, placing the observatory ahead of similar institutions. The work is titled Lana of the Sky.
