If the book makes any distinct contribution of new material on the subject of freight rates, this will be found in the chapters which develop the policies of the Interstate Commerce Commission in regulating rates under the Interstate Commerce Act. It is high time that the more important principles recognized by the Interstate Commerce Commission in regulating rates on particular commodities and between particular points should be understood. Definite principles and policies are discernible in the Commission's decisions. even if some inconsistencies appear. With the exception of the Commission's policy under Section 4 these have received little attention from economists. There is some discussion of these matters in legal treatises but they are wanting in economic analysis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eAll pictures are of the actual item.  If this is a railroad item, this material is obsolete and no longer in use by the railroad.  Please email with questions.
