A National Postwar Transportation Policy
T RANSPORTATION p olic y has many phases, the most important of which may be included within three groups: the policy of those who provide and manage transportation facilities; the policy of those who provide the labor, and co-operate with owners and managers in performing the services rendered; and the policy of the Government as regards intercarrier relations, public aid, and regulation of services and rates. There is also the fundamental quest…
Government Regulation of Railroads in the United States
long experience in the regulation of railroads, but the problems connected therewith have not been finally solved. Indeed, the recent rapid development of the agencies, the facilities, and the services of transportation, accompanied by rapid economic, social, and political changes, has made the regulation of railroads a larger and more complicated task. The present situation of the railroads and of the relation of the government to them is especi…

Problems of Government Ownership and Operation of Railroads
FOUR years of business depression have made trouble for the railroads as they have for all other industries and enterprises. The railroads are confronted not only with adverse business conditions but also with greatly augmented and intensified competition with other agencies and facilities of transportation, particularly those providing carriage on the highways. The public, however, cannot afford to adopt or to continue a policy towards the railr…

Legislation Concerning the Railroad Service
I am asked to state how the public regards the controversy that has arisen over methods of settling disputes between the railroad companies and their employes. While I think I can speak without bias or partisanship, I of course recognize it to be impossible for any one individual to represent the views of the general public on a complicated controversial question such as the one under consideration. Indeed, it is probable that the public as a who…
The Panama Canal
Competition Versus Coöperation in the Steamship Business
Shippers whether by rail or by water routes require, first of all, adequate and regular services at reasonable and relatively stable rates.The primary consideration is that of service.Under pres- ent-day conditions, the rates charged, though of importance to shippers, seldom impose serious restrictions upon trade, and it is probable that commercial transactions suffer more from frequent fluctuations in charges than from unreasonably high rates.Ca…

I2Ifrom which to measure the degree of departure.The study of dependents, etc., has failed both of scientific accuracy and profitable reforms on account of the variously vague notions regarding normal man and the consequent direction which reform should take.Those who begin with the study of the abnormal, usually assume, at least unconsciously, that the normal is largely present in society and is static.The abnormal needs, therefore, to be confor…

The Nicaragua Canal and the Economic Development of the United States
The economic influences exerted by such a waterway as the Nicaragua Canal are, in general, two.First, the inter- oceanic canal will give a wider market to our raw materials obtained by agriculture, mining, forestry, and the other extractive industries; second, the waterway will assist American manufactures by cheapening the expense of trans- portation, thus reducing the costs of raw materials used, and giving the finished goods a wider range of m…
