Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Present Status of Governmental Regulation of the Railroads
To give each community the rightful benefit of loca tion, to keep different commodities on an equal footing so that each shall circulate freely and in natural volume, and to prescribe schedule rates which shall be reasonably just to both shipper and carrier is a task of vast magnitude and importance. In the performance of that task lies the great and permanent work of public regulation.
