Plan To Gurp Roads Advised To President By Judge Farrar
Judge E H Farrar of New Orleans urges President Roosevelt to seize full federal power over post roads to control rail abuses. He argues Congress can create national post road corporations, expropriate land, and regulate use, with broad federal authority beyond interstate commerce limits. Farrar outlines thirteen specific government roles for a post road system.

Decision Favors Shippers on Express Flower Rates
The Interstate Commerce Commission rules the United States Express Company must cut its flower rate from New Jersey to New York City from $1 to 6 cents per 100 pounds. The order bars the $1 rate after June 15 and imposes new lower rates for various origin points, while reducing empty flower box charges. The Society of American Florists brought the case, arguing current pricing was excessive.
