Hill's Road Upheld by Highest Court in Minnesota
Minnesota Supreme Court unanimously ruled that only the legislature can regulate railroad stock increases and that delegation to a railroad commission is unconstitutional. The decision overturns an injunction blocking an $80 million stock issue by the Iva Northern Railroad Company and affirms state power to set general conditions for increases. Attorney General Young called the ruling a setback for state supervision of capitalization.
