CHALLENGES STATE'S
Counsel for Postoffice Depart
ment Argues Lack of
Jurisdiction
U. S. ASKS INJUNCTION
Pittsburgh, Aprfii 21. C. M. Hrace
len, special counsel of the Postoffice
Department, before Judge Duffing ton,
of the United Slates Circuit Court of
Appeals, and Judge Dickinson, of the
I'nited States District Court of Phila
delphia, and Judge Thomson, of Pitts
burgh, contended that the state of
Pcnnsvlvania has no juridsiction in the
matter or regulating telcpboue rates of
the Hell Telephone Company because
that company is merely iicting as an
ngent of the federal government In this
state.
The argument, was on the govern
ment's application for nn injunction
restitiining the State Public Service
Commission nnd Attorney General
Schaffer from interfering .with the gov
ernment's vtire rntes. Attorney Gen
eral Schaffer, with several assistants
nnd special counsel, represented the
state.
The United States will lose $10,000
iln.ll unless the injunction it asks is
granted, Mr. Uracelen said in the course
of his argument. He said the govern
ment asked not only for an injunction
in this special case, but an injunction
restrnining the state nuthorities from
interfering in other enses.
Attorney tienernl Schaffer Raid it
was the intention of the state to seek
injunctions ngninst the Western Union,
Postal Telegraph and independent lines.
Judge Uufflngton intcrruped Mr.
Uracelen on several occasions, especial -Iv
on the point of jurisdiction, upon
which the government's argument was
founded.
Mr. Uracelen, nt one point declared
it was Ills belief that the postmaster
general should disregard the state courts
and instruct his agents to enforce the
new rntes, trim with the first arrest, to
institute habeas corpus proceedings and
carry it to the highest court if neces
sary. The postmaster general is pro
ceeding mildly, however, be said.
Concluding his argument Mr. Urace
len said! 4'No law ev'cr enacted In this
state gives the public service commission
the power to regulate a Federal agency,
and the telcphon and telegraph system
is such nn agency. It is no more sub
ject to the jurisdiction today than N
that part ot the post office department,
which happens to be within this state.
The telegraph and telephone systems in
this state, as well ns lu the United
States, are now being operated by and
for the government of the United States,
Washington, April 21 Upon the
government's motions, tho Supieme
Court today agreed to hear on May
f next arguments in test cases from
South Dakota and Massacbuetts involv
ing the light ot Postmaster General
Burleson to interfere with existing in
trastate telephone toll rates.
Lawyers familiar with the court's
procedure said today that in view of
the importance of the question involved
It was possible that a decision might be
given nt this term.
The South Dakota suit resulted flora
State Supreme Court decrees enjoining
four telephone companies hi that state
from Increasing their toll rates ns or
dered bv the postmaster general. Similar
precccdings have been instituted in
twenty-one states, in nine of which
decisions against the postmaster general
have been rendered while in eight they
have bceu in his favor, Kour cases are
now pending,
Tho Supieme Court also agreed to
review Massachusetts Supremo Court
decrees dismissing proceedings instituted
by the State Public Service Commission
to prevent the New England Telephone
and Telegraph Company from Increas
ing Its rates In compliance with sn or- '
der issued by Mr. Burleson,
Jackson, Miss., April 21. The Mis
sissippi Supreme Court today reversed
a finding of Chancellor Lamar Easter
ling and issued a decree granting a per
petual Injunction to restrain the Cum
berland Telegraph- nnd Telephone Com
pany from enforcing new rates on In
trastate telophone messages promul
gated by Postmaster General Burleson.
