Book excerpt: Excerpt from Select List of References on Government Ownership of Railroads This is one of a number of lists upon topics of current interest which have been compiled to meet requests by letter. SO far as it could be distributed at all it has hitherto been distributed in typewritten form. The applications have become so numerous that it has now been reduced to print, so as to be available for more general distribution. It has no claim to completeness, nor does it even attempt to exhaust the resources of this Library on the subject. Its purpose is merely to present some of the authorities of interest to the general inquirer. The special investigator must, of course, go much further. A. P. C.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of Books With References to Periodicals, Relating to Railroads: In Their Relation to the Government and the Public This issue is a reprint from the plates of the first with the addition of a "Select list of recent works relating to government regulation and government ownership of railroads," pp. 41-54, and the continuation of articles in periodicals down to 1907, pp. 63-94. The legislation which resulted in the Interstate Commerce Law of June 29, 1906, brought about the publication of numerous works. The discussions, in large part, are to be found in periodical literature. Some of the books produced on the subject are recorded on pp. 41-54 of this List. "The hearings before the Committee on Interstate Commerce, United States Senate," from December 16, 1904 to May 23, 1905, are printed as Senate document 243, 59th Congress, 1st session, comprising five volumes. The digest of the hearings in one volume, forms Senate document 244, 59th Congress, 1st session. On pp. 7-9 of this List there is a summary statement of federal reports and legislation. Subsequent material of this description is given under the heading United States, pp. 51-54 of this List. This is restricted to legislation subsequent to the Pacific railroad undertakings. This subject will be treated separately. In the fifth volume of the "Hearings before the Committee on Interstate Commerce, United States Senate," pp. 1231-1296, there is a list of bills and resolutions introduced in Congress respecting the regulation of railway transportation. This may be consulted in connection with the list of reports here furnished. In the speeches in Congress in 1874, when the Windom bill was reported, down to enactment of the Interstate commerce act of 1906 there are discussions of all phases of the question of government control, especially of its constitutionality. These are noted on pp. 95-112. The debates on the Interstate Commerce Law of 1906 are printed in the Congressional Record, 59th Congress, 1st session. The index volume of the Record will guide to speeches on the act and to its legislative history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

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 National Ownership of Railways The Railways are Public Highways and as such, be ing necessary to transportation as a means of exchange, they should be owned and operated lay Society in the interest of Society. Highways are not private but public institutions, and when government lets out the construction of its highways, giving to corporate bodies the privilege of taxing those who use them, there is always retained a superintending power, a right to regulate the charges imposed upon the public. That the government has a right to prescribe rates has been so well established by judicial decisions that it is no longer a question for discussion. It is the duty of the State to provide inter-communication, and the chartering of a railroad by a private company is for the purpose of performing said duty for the State. Says Chief Justice Black A railway is a public highway for the public benefit, and the right of the corporation to exact a uniform, reasonable, stipulated tell from those who pass over it, does not make its main use a private one. The public have an interest in such a road when it belongs to a corporation as clearly as they would 1f it were free, or if the tolls were payable to the State.
