Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is about the future of railroad management in the US following the end of World War I. The author, writing in 1919, argues that government ownership is not necessary to ensure proper regulation and control of the nation's railroads. Instead, the author proposes a plan for a single, nationally-owned corporation to own and operate all of the railroads in the country. This plan would allow for more efficient and economical operation of the railroads, and would also ensure that the railroads are operated in the best interests of the public. The author also discusses the importance of encouraging new railroad construction, and provides a plan for doing so.
