Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commercial Liberty and Governmental Regulation of the Railroads The difficulty with those gentlemen is that they fail to differentiate between that commercial liberty which from the beginning has prevailed within all our borders and' that contemporaneous restraint upon common carriers in the work of preventing acts prejudicial to justice and order in the conduct of interstate commerce. No positive infor mation is a orded in regard to the nature or methods of the proposed governmental supervision and control of the railroads and of the interstate commerce of the country.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Railway Problems: In the Light of European Experience or Government Regulation Vs; Government Operation of Railways The purpose of this work is to present the broader economic, political and social aspects of our railway problem, while leaving in the background those technical and administrative questions which must remain largely the same, whether we adhere to our present policy of Government regulation or decide to embark upon a regime of public ownership and management. While maintaining that our present experiment with State and Federal regulation should be tried out energetically and thoroughly, so as to bring it to the most successful attainable issue, at the same time I have endeavoured to make clear that the alternative of Government ownership, if brought about in a conservative and businesslike way, is very far from constituting the dangerous possibility which many railway apologists and others would have us consider it. As a matter of fact, in view of the indisputable success of State railways in Continental Europe, the assumption that we are constitutionally incapable of achieving similarly happy results would seem more like an interested prejudice or an exploded superstition than like a sound deduction from known facts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Regulation of Railways: An Address It might be expected, especially as I am addressing a body of lawyers, that in dealing with my subject I would consider some of the interesting legal questions which have arisen in connection with the public regulation of railways, but the greater importance of the economic and financial issues involved have induced me to discuss them rather than the more purely legal aspects of the question. If, in railway regulation, our aim is to subserve and advance the public welfare, we are aided but little by a too exclusive reliance upon mere legal learning. Our true enlightenment must come from a study of the economic and financial conditions involved. We can thus more clearly discern the public interests affected and more readily understand that these interests are not really antagonistic to those of the railways. On the contrary, these interests are interdependent, and an injury to one works to the disadvantage of the other. In adopting this line of discussion, I assume that the public interest is of first importance and my purpose is to consider how that interest can best be promoted. I am not here to make a special plea for railway interests, but shall attempt, from an independent and impartial standpoint, to arrive at the principles which should govern the proper exercise of this regulative function.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railway Regulation: An Analysis of the Underlying Problems in Railway Economics From the Standpoint of Government Regulations In the following pages an attempt is made to present an analysis of the leading problems in railway economics from the standpoint of government regulation in the United States. While it has been my purpose to Vitalize the discussion by the liberal use of concrete illustrative material, the emphasis throughout has been placed upon the discovery of underlying causes and the consideration of fundamental principles. The historical development of railway transportation has been traced only in so far as early conditions and past events have been shown to throw light upon the meaning and significance of current practices and present day problems. The various stages in the growth of the American system of public control, state and national, have been given careful and detailed consideration be cause the principles and methods of railway regulation, as applied in the United States today, are the result of a gradual development. Both legislative enactment and judicial decision have slowly accommodated themselves to the irresistible pressure of our changing social and political ideals and our expanding commercial and indus trial needs.
