This volume presents addresses by Walker Downer Hines, then Director-General of Railroads, and Interstate Commerce Commissioner Robert Wickliffe Woolley, concerning the pressing âRailroad Problemâ of the early 20th century. Delivered at a time when the role of railroads was critical to the nationâ(TM)s economy and infrastructure, these speeches offer insight into the debates and policies surrounding railroad regulation and operation following World War I. Hines, a prominent lawyer and government official, provides a detailed analysis of the challenges facing the railroad industry and proposes solutions for its efficient and equitable management. Woolley, drawing on his experience as an Interstate Commerce Commissioner, offers a complementary perspective on the regulatory framework necessary to ensure fair competition and public service. George Foster Peabody contributes additional context and commentary. This collection is invaluable for understanding the complexities of transportation policy and the economic considerations that shaped the American railroad system.
