GENE FAVELL of Klamath Falls was quest speaker at the

Morse Wants
Probe Of ICC
"WASHINGTON l Sen. Morse
(D-Ore) Friday suggested an in
vestigation be made of two former
Interstate Commerce Commission
officials he said had exhibited
"questionable conduct."
One of the former ICC officials
denied any questionable conduct.
The other refused immediate com
ment on the remarks Morse made
on the Senate floor.
In a speech to the Senate, Morse
also said a special committee
should be created to inquire into
the actions of federal regulatory
agencies.
One of the cases Morse cited
was that of Owen Clarke, a for
mer ICC chairman.
Morse said Clark's resignation
late last year to become a vice
president of the C&O Railroad in
dicated Clarke tried for the posi
tion while still serving on the ICC.
Reached at his home here,
Clarke declined immediate com
ment.
The other case mentioned by
Morse was that of Edward M.
Reidy, a former general counsel
for the ICC who later became gen
eral attorney for the Southern
Pacific.
Morse said that Reidy repre
sented the ICC in proceedings in
which a box company brought a
complaint against the Southern
Pacific.
Morse asked in his speech: "Is
this not a strange occurence to
have an attorney for one party be
come the attorney for another
party in the midst of litigation?"
Asked for comment on Morse's
remarks, Reidy said:
"I did not have anything to do
with the box case after I left the
commission, except to request an
extension of time to file a reply
to a petition for a writ of
certiorari in the Supreme Court to
which the other side had consent
ed in advance.
"Furthermore, the Interstate
I Commerce Commission and the
j Southern Pacific were both on the
i same side of the case."
Reidy, who has lived here for
1 40 years, said he is a Democrat.

a carved buffalo he displayed, and

paint pots found are handcarved,
he said.
"They wore quantities of beads
and bangles," the speaker said.
"As trade goods they used Phoenix
buttons, Northwest tokens and cop

or "pot" hunters date back to 1890.

sold artifacts for a living. He con

collector since that time. He has
