The certificate limited motor operations to service to or from points on the Rock Island Railroad, subject to any restrictions the commission might impose under the Interstate Commerce Act to insure that the service was auxiliary or supplementary to train service. The Act authorized consolidation, merger, acquisition, or lease of common carriers if the commission deemed it to be \u201cconsistent with the public interest.\u201d In a separate section, Congress directed the commission not to certify a railroad corporation seeking to operate motor carriers unless it also found that the railroad would use motor vehicle service to public advantage in its operations and would not unduly restrain competition.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIn 1944, Rock Island purchased the Frederickson Lines, covering routes between Atlantic, Iowa and Omaha, Nebraska. Rock Island filed for permission to provide motor service to points along the Frederickson Lines. The commission granted Rock Island permission, but placed five conditions on motor service for both the White and Frederickson routes. Rock Island challenged the conditions in district court and won, but on appeal, the Supreme Court upheld the commission\u2019s power to impose the conditions.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ERock Island then filed for permission to provide unrestricted motor service to points along the White and Frederickson lines. In 1954, the application was substantially granted. American Trucking Associations, Inc., nine other motor carriers, a group of railway trade unions, and several other organizations intervened, arguing that 1) the commission was required to limit motor service by a rail-owned motor carrier to auxiliary or supplementary service, and 2) the evidence was not sufficient to support the commission\u2019s certification order. The district court upheld the certificate as granted.\u003C\/p\u003E\n","question":"\u003Cp\u003E1. Did the Interstate Commerce Act preclude the Interstate Commerce Commission from issuing a certificate authorizing motor-carrier operations to a subsidiary of Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company because the parent company was a railroad corporation?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E2. Was the Interstate Commerce Commission\u2019s conclusion that public interest required the continuation of service by Rock Island Motor Transit Company supported by substantial evidence?\u003C\/p\u003E\n","conclusion":"\u003Cp\u003ENo and yes. In an 8-1 decision written by Justice Thomas Clark, the Court held that the \u201cpublic interest\u201d section of the Act did not prohibit the commission from allowing Rock Island to operate unrestricted motor service along the White and Frederickson lines. Justice Clark noted that Rock Island applied for its broader application under the public interest section of the Act, which did not contain 1) statutory language limiting the provision of motor service by railroad companies or 2) language suggesting that service must be auxiliary or supplementary. He looked to the legislative history of the act, and determined that while congress considered adding an absolute \u201cauxiliary or supplemental\u201d requirement to the public interest section, it did not do so.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJustice Clark then held that there was sufficient evidence to show that Rock Island\u2019s motor transit service along the approved routes served the public interest. Although the evidence did not suggest that allowing Rock Island to provide motor service was the only way to serve public convenience and necessity, Justice Clark reasoned that the generally more profitable motor service helped to pay for the costlier rail service, securing the public\u2019s access to both. He also noted that the commission could impose restrictions or conditions if Rock Island\u2019s unrestricted motor operations became clearly destructive of competition in the future.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJustice William Douglas dissented.\u003C\/p\u003E\n","advocates":[{"advocate":{"ID":37705,"name":"Peter T.
