Railroad Commission Places Itself on Record. Columbia, Jan. 13.-The South Carolina Railroad C. mmission ac cording to a telegram today from .John G. Richards, chairman, to Charles E. Elmquist, of Washington, president of the Nationa. Association of Railway and Utilities Companies, is opposed to the McAdoo plan of the government operating the railways for a five-year period and to govern ment ownership. The following is the wire of Chair man Richards on behalf of the com mission: "Your circular January 6. South Carolina commission unanimously op posed to five-year plan or government ownership. We think our association should take a stand upon the ques tion. As to interstate rates, the com mission of the several States can be relied upon to properly protect all in terests, and the Interstate Commerce Commission interstate rates." The telegram from Chairman Rich ards was in answer to a circular from Mr. Elmquist asking how the com mission stood on the McAdoo plan, stating that at Washington there was a feeling that should the plan be adopted it would ultimately mean gov ernment ownership. "Considerahle apprehension exists among certain Senators over the ef fects unon rates of an early restora tion of the railroads to private own'er ship," said the Elmoquist circular. "It is claimedl that the McAdoo rates wvill be superceded by the State freight and nassenger rates, andl also the in terstate rates, wvhich were in effect prior to ordler 28, thus dlisturbing the rate fabric and endangering railroadi r-eta rns. Mr. Elmquist asks the commission, should the roads go back to their pri v'ate owners. howv it exnets "to treat wvit~h statutotorv freight and passen ger rates, as wvell as other rates, which were in effect at the time order 28 was issued."
