Special to Journal,. , Raleigh, Jan 29-In the House Laugh inghouse introduced a kill pf epared by" a. - k.i Is & : .1 wer to a letter signed by fifty members of the House requesting the committee tosay wnat umtionu powers- it tie- red the legislature to confer upon it ' for the more efficient discharge of its " duties. Laughinghouse said he hoped the bill would give the Commission ' power to do jpmethmg and that it would do something; and if it did not ne wusuM mat two years nence me Commission would be abolished. The bill requires "all transportation companies to establish and maintain all reasonably just. Requires when ptac ticable and the necessities of the public demand that any railroad shall mstal and operate . one or more passenger trains and any two or more railways intersecting shall make-close connec tion. The Commission ia .to carefully examine the condition of each road, its equipment and management, regard ing public safety and convenience and if found unsafe to immediately require, the company to make repairs. The Commission is empowered to make just and reasonable rates for telephone-rentals and messages. It is authorized to prevent discrimi dationand unjust or unreasonable rates and can employ counsel whenever nec essary In transmitting this bill the Commission wrote that if enacted ic would enlarge its powers and enable it to give greater service to the State. In Virginia the Corporation Commis sion is established by the constitution can issue injunction and mandamus render judgments for penalties, ani is sue execution and appeals must be di rect to the Supreme court. To confer this power to them would require a con stitutional amendment but it would add greatly to the efficiency of the Commis sion and if the legislature concurs in this view the Commission will prepare a bill for such amendment to the con stitution.
