Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Ownership of Railways In an earlier book entitled The American Transporta tion Question, the author has discussed the railway prob lem of the United States as it presents itself if it be assumed that the policy of private ownership of railways is to be maintained. The present work has two purposes. One is to give information as to the comparative results of private and public ownership and management of rail ways in various leading and typical countries. Its other, and main, purpose is to try to direct serious consideration to the question of what in view of the experience of other countries with state ownership and management, and of the conditions existing in the United States would probably be the results of the adoption of government own ership and management of railways in this country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Ownership of Railways: Considered as the Next Great Step in American Progress I want to convince you of the truth of four significant contentions which I make. First: that government ownership is all but an accomplished fact in the world at the pre sent time. Second: that all the governments which have tried the system of nationalization of railways were never so active as now in the matter of bringing about complete govern ment ownership by extending the present system by purchase and construction. Third: that the sentiment in favor of government ownership among the people of this country, and of the world for that matter, is more general and deeply seated than it is commonly understood to be. And fourth: when govern ment ownership comes in this country it is likely to appear very suddenly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Often Overlooked Points Regarding Government Ownership of Railways: Address Delivered by Mr. Samuel O. Dunn, Editor of the Railway Age Gazette Before the Traffic Club of New England At intervals for a long time different men whose Views are of great weight have said that unless certain things were done, or others ceased to be done, in the United States government acquisition and operation of the rail ways would result. William J. Bryan, on returning in 1906 from a trip around the world, made a famous speech at Madison Square Garden, New York City, in which he announced himself in favor of government ownership of railroads. He believed that railroads partake so much of the nature of a monopoly that they must ultimately become public property and be managed by public officials in the interest of the whole community. Mr. Bryan's views were unanimously criticized and denounced by the Republican press; they met dissent and condemnation from most of the Democratic press; and it soon was evi dent that the press reflected public Opinion. Mr. Bryan himself was so convinced of this that when in 1908 he was nominated by the Democrats for president he said that he did not consider government ownership an issue in the impending campaign. But his opponents used his pronouncement against him; he was beaten; and doubt less it helped in his defeat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Ownership of Railroads, and War Taxation Paternalistic control, even when entirely benevolent in intent, is generally harmful in effect. It is apt to be doubly so when, as sometimes occurs, it is punitive in intent. The history of our railroads in the last ten years is a case in point. In their early youth our railroads were allowed to grow up like spoiled, wilful, untamed children. They were given pretty nearly everything they asked for, and what they were not given freely they were apt to get somehow, anyhow. They fought amongst themselves and in doing so were liable to do harm to persons and objects in the neighborhood. They were overbearing and inconsiderate and did not show proper respect to their parent, i.e., the people.

Private Ownership of Railways in Canada The true relation of the railway to the people or state may be set forth in the following propositions: First: The railways of a country are the main highways of a country. Second: There is no source of revenue for a railway other than the rates imposed upon the people for the carrying of their persons and their goods. Third: This revenue is raised, not from any hidden fountain of wealth within the railway itself, but from the earnings of the people, whose labor and money furnish the traffic. Fourth: By the division of labor in modern civilized life ever: one who earns or spends money contributes directly or indirectly to the cost of transportation, and this cost enters into every article used by every citizen.
