This is a transcript of a speech given by Philander Chase Knox to the United States Senate on March 28, 1906, concerning the regulation of railway rates. Delivered during the height of the Progressive Era, Knox addresses the critical issues surrounding interstate commerce and the necessity for governmental oversight of the rapidly expanding railroad industry. In 'Railway Rate Regulation,' Knox offers a detailed examination of the legal and economic arguments for and against federal intervention, providing valuable insights into the political debates that shaped early 20th-century American economic policy. This historical document captures a pivotal moment in the evolution of transportation law and its enduring impact on the nation’s development. This is essential reading for anyone interested in American legal history, economic regulation, and the history of the railroad.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
