Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroad Legislation as Developed Up to Date: December 10, 1919 It seems useful to take stock at this time of the prog ress made by the present Congress during its first ses sion toward the enactment of legislation necessary to meet the railroad emergency. The controlling necessity for additional railroad legislation is to reestablish rail road credit, which failed even before the War under the system of regulation in force, and to save from bank ruptcy and ruin many, and perhaps most, of the railroads of the country because of the extraordinary increases in wages and in prices of fuel and other materials during federal control. Unless railroad credit is reestablished, it will be impossible for the railroads to reasonably keep pace with the growth of the country or to finance any sub stantial part of their requirements for extensions and betterments, generally estimated at one billion dollars annually. Let us therefore examine what Congress has proposed to date, and determine how far it meets this fundamental necessity, and what the country faces if these proposals are really as far as Congress means to go in solving the railroad problem.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Road Legislation for the American State The principal reason for this comparative neglect of the common roads in nearly all countries is, of course, to be found in the astonishing growth of the railway systems, and, since the invention of the steamboat, of commerce by water. These have ren dered unnecessary long roads such as the ancient Aztecs and Romans found it wise to build for com mercial and military purposes. Then, too, though the railroads have not really lessened the importance of the wagon road, they seem to have done so and they certainly have overshadowed it in political import ance, so that legislators, naturally, have passed it by.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Proposed Radical Railway Legislation: An Address Delivered Before the Faculty and Students of the University of Missouri, October 20, 1905 That there should be favoritism in the charges for rail way service is intolerable; it is, also, as contrary to the law of the land as that there shall be murder or theft. But social order is still interrupted by occasional larcenies and malicious homicides, and there is no evidence that the law against rebates is more frequently violated than those which forbid other offenses. Yet if any one can suggest a modification of the present law that will more effectually protect the public against the direct or indirect preferment of one shipper over another, through rebates or other con cessions from the published schedules of charges, the sug gestion will become, promptly and without opposition from any railway officer, a part of the Federal statute law. Public antipathy to rebates ought not, however, to be used to further the enactment of legislation having no bear ing upon that subject. To confer rate-making power upon the Interstate Commerce Commission could in no way hinder the payment of rebates; it would, on the contrary, make illegal concessions from the published schedules the only means of approximating that elasticity in railway charges which is essential to the upbuilding of industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Federal Regulation of Railway Rates This series of books owes its existence to the generosity of messrs. Hart, Schaffner, and Marx of Chicago, who have shown a special interest in trying to draw the attention of American youth to the study of economic and commercial subjects, and to encourage the best thinking of the country to investigate the problems which vitally affect the business world of to-day. For this purpose they have delegated to the undersigned Committee the task of selecting topics, making all announcements, and awarding prizes annually for those who wish to compete. In the year ending June 1, 1906, the following topics were assigned: 1. To what extent, and by what administrative body, should the public attempt to control railway rates in interstate commerce? 2. A just and practicable method of taxing railway property. 3. Will the present policy of the labor unions in dealing with non-union men, and the "closed shop," further the interests of the workingmen? 4. Should ship subsidies be offered by the government of the United States? 5. An examination into the economic causes of large fortunes in this country. 6. The influence of credit on the level of prices. 7. The cattle industry in its relation to the ranchman, feeder, packer, railway, and consumer.

In but a little more than a generation there was tremendous expansion in railways, in society, in social consciousness, and in government. Nor mally, the aid aspect became smaller and smaller, dwindling to a sort of negative aid which a railway receives when the friction of political machinery retards or prevents the hostile working of social conscience or public Opinion; and regulation grew, chang ing from a negative disburdening of commerce from private restrictions to a. More positive control. The demand for rail ways had become more qualitative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
