Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the impact of government regulation on the railroad industry in the United States, with a specific emphasis on the tension between federal and state control. The author argues that the current system of regulation is inefficient and wasteful, and proposes a plan for reform that would give the federal government exclusive control over railroad regulation. The plan includes provisions for federal incorporation of railroads, the enlargement and reorganization of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and the transfer of powers of investigation and prosecution from the Commission to another agency of government. The author contends that this plan would simplify the regulatory process, reduce costs, and improve the efficiency of the railroad industry, which would ultimately benefit both the railroads and the public.
