Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Regulation of Railway Rates: A Study of the Experience of the United States, Germany, France, Austria-Hungary, Russia and Australia This book' presents the conclusions forced upon the author by a painstaking study of the railway question extending over some twelve years. That study began with an to the results of State industrial ventures in Australasia, which he took up with a strong bias in favor of State intervention in industry. As many of the most impressive lessons to be learned from the industrial experiments of the Australasian States are connected with their management of rail ways, the author was naturally led to make com parisons with the railways of other countries, over which the various governments have exercised some measure of control. The net result has been the disclosure of such overwhelming proofs of the evils of State direction of industry, or interference with its natural course, that he has become firmly convinced of the unwisdom of government regulation of rail ways or their rates.
