Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroad Freight Rates in Relation to the Industry and Commerce of the United States The steps of the development of the freight rate strue tures have been largely attained through discussions, of which the records have disappeared, and through cor respondence no longer in existence. They remain in the memory of the veteran traffic managers who have readily imparted much of the information contained in these pages. Their recollection, however, has confessedly not always been exact as to dates, leaving it possible, in parts of the book, to show only the general sequence of the development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Railroad Rates The railroad problem, with respect to charges, has always been a problem of freight rates rather than of passenger fares. The freight traffic upon the American railroads far exceeds the passenger traffic in volume, complexity, and importance. In order to avoid confusion of statement, this book deals only with freight rates. But the fundamental principles governing rates and fares are the same.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroads: Rates and Regulation It is this helpless and unorganized general public, always in need of an advocate, which, perhaps, most strongly appeals to the academic mind. If there be lack of judicial poise in this regard, it is, at all events, palliated by free confession in advance. Nor is the history of the assumption by public authority Of its inherent right to control railroads, as narrow an interest as it at first appears. Transportation, as a service, is the commodity produced by common carriers. The manner in which the price of this commodity has been brought under governmental regulation has a direct bearing upon another problem just beginning to open up; namely that of the con trol by the state of the prices of other things. It is not unlikely, in my judgment, that the final solution1 of the so called Trust Problem in the United States, Whether for good or ill, may ultimately contain as one important feature, the determination by governmental authority Of reasonable prices for such prime necessities of life as milk, ice, coal, sugar and Oil, when produced under monopolistic conditions. This view is shared by my colleague Professor Taussig in his Principles of Economics. It is also distinctly set forth by President Van Hise Of the University Of Wisconsin, in his recent Con centration and Control. When the seed Of such an industrial policy is planted, as I believe it possible in time, the soil will have been richly prepared for its reception by our experience in the determination of reasonable charges for the services of railroads and other public utilities.

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Developments in Freight Rates and Transport Policy In its report of August 6, 1957, in Ex Parte 206, _g/ a case involving increases in the general level of freight rates, the Interstate Commerce Commission stated that it was clear that, by the end of 1957, the railroads would.be faced with further increased costs resulting from (among other things) a rise in the payroll tax rate, wage increases stemming from.a cost-ofeliving adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index, and increases in prices of materials. The Commission said that, when these increases occurred, it would entertain a petition to authorize further moderate increases in such rates and charges to cover additional increases in expenses which have materialized. The Commission suggested further that consideration should be given to ways of increasing rates other than a general horizontal increase. The latter a percentage increase applying uniformly to most commodities is the approach which, for a good many years, has been used whenever the railroads have sought a general increase in revenue. A rate increase for that purpose is distinguished from upward or downward adjustments of rates on individual commodities or movements which for any of various reasons need Special attention.
