Big Four Chairman Asserts
That Railways Must Not
Give Rebates.
Pittsburg, Pa., April 27.—M. E. In
galls, chairman of the board of direc
tors of the Big Four, was the principal
speaker at the banquet of tho Traffic
Club last night Over 200 officials were

Mr. Ingalls reviewed briefly the his
tory of the evolution of railways from
their Inception, showing how In the be
ginning people everywhere were anx
ious to get railroads and gladly made
every concession asked to get them to
their communities. As to unfair con
tracts and rebating, he said In part:
"It has been a long light—It has been
a long time In which public opinion has
been getting educated, but ae I have
stated, the end has come. There Is to
be In the history of this country no
more secret contracts—no more rebates
—no more free transportation.
"You must have leglalatlon providing
that no new railways shall be built or
new stock and' bonds Issued, except
with the approval of the Interstate
commerce commission. I know this will
cause a storm among some railway
promoters, but, gentlemen, you have
got to aubmlt, nnd you might as well
mako up your minds now that you are
no longer a private Industry, and he
who Is not prepared to mnnage his
railway aa a public Institution In ac
cordance with law should resign and
seek other buslnees. All railways must
submit to tho law."
