520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "The Heart of the Railroad Problem" by Frank Parsons is a historical and analytical work written in the early 20th century. This book explores the systemic issues of railway favoritism and discrimination in the United States, examining how these practices impact shippers and the economy as a whole. The author draws on extensive research conducted through his travels in Europe and across the United States, which informs his understanding of the inequities present in the railway system. The beginning of the book sets the stage for an in-depth discussion regarding the legal principles of impartiality that railroad companies are supposed to adhere to as common carriers. Parsons outlines the pervasive issue of unjust favoritism towards larger shippers and the negative effects on smaller competitors and the public interest. He observes that despite existing laws designed to ensure fairness, the practice of discrimination persists, fueling ongoing debate about regulation and the role of government in overseeing the railway industry. Throughout the opening portion, Parsons establishes a clear intention to reveal the motives behind railway practices and suggest potential remedies based on lessons learned from both American history and international examples.
