CHAPTER VI The Regulation Of Railway Rates The Rate-fixing Power Of The States The Eight Of Regulation Aside from the judicial enforcement of the commonlaw duties of public service corporations,1 railway-rate regulation has been applied in the first instance through the state legislatures and commissions and through the Interstate Commerce Commission. The primary problem was whether power was legally vested in the state legislatures to control the rates and charges of railway corporations. The question first arose in the so-called Granger cases,2 involving the validity of the Granger legislation explained in an earlier chapter. The validity of this legislation was upheld at every point. The first and most important of these Granger cases was Munn v. Illinois, decided in 1876. In this case the constitutionality of an Illinois statute fixing a maximum rate for the storage of grain in elevators in Chicago was involved. The plaintiff, who had been convicted and fined in the state courts for a violation of the statute, appealed to the federal courts on the ground that the enforcement of the statutory rate would constitute a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution.3 The constitutionality of the statute was upheld by the Supreme Court, and the same legal principles were applied in the subsequent cases to railway rates. i The common-law duties of common carriers in many of their phases are treated in The. Law of Carriers by Ralph Merriam, a treatise in the course in Interstate Commerce and Railway Traffic. 2 Munn v. Illinois, 94 V. S. 113; C, B. & Q. R. R. Co. v. Iowa, 94 U. S. 155; Peik v. C. and N.

Download or read book British Railways 1948 73 written by T. R. Gourvish and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 1690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1986, this is a business history of the first twenty-five years of nationalised railways in Britain. Commissioned by the British Railways Board and based on the Board's extensive archives, it fully analyses the dynamics of nationalised industry management and the complexities of the vital relationship with government. After exploring the origins of nationalisation, the book deals with the organisation, financial performance, investment and commercial policies of the British Transport Commission (1948-2), Railway Executive (1948-53) and British Railways Board (1963-73). Calculations of profit and loss, investment, and productivity are provided on a consistent basis for 1948-73. This business history thus represents a major contribution not only to the debate about the role of the railways in a modern economy but also to that concerning the nationalised industries, which have proved to be one of the most enduring problems of the British economy since the war.
