About this book
William Zebina Ripley wrote Railroads, subtitled Rates and Regulations. The text gives a sixth and final reason for diversion of traffic from the direct line, which may be partly sentimental, but none the less significant. The text quotes Mr. Bowes, traffic manager of the Illinois Central, justifying the participation of this road in Chicago-San Francisco business by way of New Orleans.
The text says the determination of the proper scope and function of judicial review was substantially forwarded by several decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States in June, 1912. The text says all three of these latest opinions on appeal again favored the Interstate Commerce Commission as against its judicial reviewer. The text speaks of an oyster-growing place, Y, which sent its oysters to market by another route, where the people at Y were paying a dollar a hundred to send their oysters to market.
