COMMISSION IS FORFWlPOVe TO MR. M'ADOO Declines to Cooperate in Move 'to Hsye Rate Regulation ; Retained WAR PROGRAM IS UPHELD 1 1 Director ' General's Demur rage Rules Are. Given ' Acquiescence , The Oregon public service commis sion' baa declined to coorerate. with the Washington sUte public service commission in a moVe to have the Sims bill, now before, congress, amen ded to restore to 'state commissions and the Interstate comerce commis sion, ; power I to 'regulate valroads rates, also to restore to the commis sion "other necessary powers." j - Chairman Miller of the Oregon commission declared tkat the Is op posed to lntefferlngRwlth the gov ernment's war-program1 in any man ner regardless- of how dlctovial Di rector General MeAdoo's power may become. It is his opinion, however, tbat legislation should automatically lestore the commissions present pow ers with the close of the war. ' A telegram from .the Washington commission said that while power to regulate, service should undoubted ly remain with the director only, the Sims bill, giving the government full control of the railroads, should be amended to restore to the commis sions the ! full rate making power. "It is erlo.us," said the message, "and quick action is necessary, as the hearing' before committee will probably close early next week. The message said further that the carriers would try to limit such sn amendment to the' interstate com merce commission. The Oregon commission dispatched messages to the Washington commis sion, to O. O. Calderhead. a repre sentative of that commission who is now lnr Washington, 'D. C, and to Senators McNary and Chamberlain as follows: - ' . : : - 'Think director general should not be hampered in policies of controll ing railroads, nor should advantage be taken of situation to enact: per manent regulatory legislation. Op posed to legislation limiting state regulation . after the war.'! - Tha commission sent a messace to the Pacific car demurrage bureau at San Francisco expressing a desire to cooperate fb the fullest extent with the director general's regulation of railroada and acquiescing in the de murrage rules "promulgated by him.
