PREFACE.

This book deals with the principles of constitutional law which are involved in rate regulation. It states the decisions in the rate cases themselves; and it also goes into a broader discussion of the purposes of those who placed in the Federal Constitution the provisions which bear upon rate regulation. Such a discussion is necessary in view of the condition of the authorities and the importance of the issues involved.

Philadelphia, October, 1913.
