Rate Bill Outlined Meets President's Views
The draft rate regulation bill prepared by the Interstate Commerce Commission for the Senate committee is the basis for negotiations on railway regulation. President Roosevelt will not sponsor the bill but favors certain features, and aims to avoid giving opponents fodder to claim he dictates legislation. The administration plans no rate regulation bill of its own, while still supporting key elements of the ICC draft. The committee began study yesterday amid debate over the measure's scope and implications for through routes, joint rates, and carrier terms.
