Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mr. Joseph Nimmo, Jr., Statistician; Hearing Before the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce of the House of Representatives: As to the Wisdom and Advisability of Conferring on the Interstate Commerce Commission the Authority to Prepare Schedules
Mr. Nimmo. Mr. Chairman, I do not propose to range over the entire subject which you are now considering. I have recently written a pam phlet to which I have devoted three months of my time and effort. It expresses very fully my thought in regard to the particular phases of the subject to which I shall now invite your attention.
There is one matter of great importance, Mr. Chairman, which I desire to bring to your attention. I refer to action taken about a month ago before the United States circuit court at Chicago, which has in important bearing upon the particular bill - the Corliss bill - which you are now considering.
