If Do Ask Corporation Commission To j Something About Long and Short Hani Clause Busir.pss Is Taken Away. j Raleigh, Nov. 20. More short (me railroads seeking relief from the long and short haul clause of the Justice act have been here today asking the corporation commission to do some thing that -will give them a division of the intrastate freight business which they declare has been' entirely taken away by the new law. i j ; : It isn't a new story to the commis sion. It has come to be a sort of "damnable iteration," as the late Mr. Shakespeare said it, and the commis sion sees the point. But every time a carrier discovers something that looks to be really brilliant, learning and the law butt, in and the carrier goes heme to swear at Mr. Justice. j The legislature ; will be besieged in January. There isn't any doubt about that. If there were no people wanting better child labor laws, better roads, better school appropriations, constitu tional amendments or woman sdffrage, there would be an imposing layout of short line railroads who will endeavor to show that the Justice act has been a hardship that they can't endure ; "There will be no more short line r'iT-lvo'ho anrl pnntinno Tin Tl PVR for A - roads built in North Carolina " A.

He ' and the other complainants against Mr. Jus tice believe the Greensboro statesman i i wished: to work no hardship against them. Moreover, they think Mr? Jus tice meant to enrich the state of his birth and his love. But they think Mr, Justice fell down slightly and that even the interstate business (that is left to the small roads unfortunate ly must divide with Virginia, long since rich on North Carolina business. Mr, Steed's visit today was no fewer than the 20th similar one from small line officials. The ! provision j that works hardest against the short liners is -that ruling that makes mandatory the routing -of freight by the shortest line unless otherwise ordered by the shipper. This often makes for delay and great inconvenience in transfers. The railroads do not have any meas ure to offer as a substitute. They merely say the new act is ruining their business and that there can be no such thing as the ccntinued con struction of short lines that join through carriers and open territory not before touched by any kind of rail road.
