Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Further Regulations of Interstate Commerce Is Necessary or Desirable: An Address Before the Minnesota State Bar Association at Duluth; July 19, 1911
Whether or not such a Federal Industrial Com mission should have power to regulate prices, is of course a matter for serious consideration. The Interstate Commerce law prescribes as a legislative rule that prices for transportation by rail, or wire, or pipe line, shall be reasonable, and that no unjust discrimination shall be made between individuals or localities similarly situated. It leaves it to the Com mission to determine when this legislative standard is departed from and to take proceedings appropriate to compel compliance with it. A similar rule might be declared by Congress with respect to the prices of commodities the subject of interstate commerce.
