A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This pamphlet is not issued as a partisan argument upon the proposed new economic legislation which is now attracting so much attention. I ts aim is a simple, impartial study in brief terms of underlying principles. The correct determination of the proper limits of governmental supervision or interference in railroad transportation is a complex problem. Many propositions which are being urged as remedies for existing evils are without precedent in scope, and they invite careful study before hasty endorsement. The writer has no direct interest, professional, pecuniary or political, in this question and his standpoint is only that of a common citizen. His sole desire is the evolution of the truth, and that correct views may prevail which will work out the greatest good for the greatest number. If the statements made are not in full accord with those opinions which just now are most popular and insistent, it is due to a conviction that an educational work is desirable. The very condensed study of some fundamental principles here offered is in response to many special requests from those who have read some of the authors more elaborate economic works.
