This book is designed to give information concerning that system useful both to students and to men of affairs-to those of the general public who desire to know the present methods of regulation, to students approaching an intensive study of railroad practice, and to railroad officers whose duties have been restricted to limited fields. It is neither a law book nor a mere text on economics, but is rather a volume presenting thoughtful observations resulting from joint experience in teaching the subject matter in a university school of commerce and in active practice before courts and commissions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.13em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eThe immediate occasion for this presentation is the enactment of the Transportation Act, 1920, and interpretations which are being placed upon it by courts and commissions in its practical application. This Act contains radical changes in regulatory methods. The original Act to Regulate Commerce was enacted in 1887. There have been three comprehensive amending acts: the Hepburn Act in 1906, the Mann-Elkins Act in 1910, and the Transportation Act in 1920. During the war period the Federal government operated the railroads pursuant to the Federal Control Act of March 21, 1918. To terminate Federal control and to remedy weaknesses disclosed in the prior laws, the Transportation Act, 1920, was enacted and approved February 28, 1920. It changed the title of the \"Act to Regulate Commerce\" to the \"Interstate Commerce Act\" and by amendments enlarged and supplemented the power of the Federal regulatory agency, the Interstate Commerce Commission. \"The act made a new departure,\" declared the Supreme Court, in upholding certain of its provisions. The prior acts were directed primarily to the regulation of rates; the new act greatly extended incidental powers of regulation of service and management which had been granted to the Commission by the amendments of 1906.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.13em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eIt is of the present law and present system of regulation that this book treats. The general scope of the various amendatory acts is indicated by the outline reproduced in the appendix, p. 437. Important statements of fact and principle are authenticated by references to cases to enable readers who so desire to go to the sources. These citations are supplemented by an appended list of cases and by references to outstanding contributions to the literature of the subject. These references have been chosen with the needs of teachers in mind.
