October 12, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents information about the book "Regulation of Railways," by Samuel O. Dunn. Dunn's book consists in part of articles which have already appeared in various periodicals, and his wide familiarity with railroad questions places at the disposal of the interested public what is probably the best-informed and most comprehensive treatment of the matter. The economic phenomena usually attending Government control of utilities have already appeared: increased rates and decreased service. Unexpected delay and opposition have been met with in arranging terms of contract with the railroads, and in other ways the ineffectiveness of the individual in relation to the sovereign power has been realized.
