It argues that railroad and shipper interests are fundamentally identical and that past failures to apply this principle led to harmful railroad regulation.

City,N.J.,July 9,1925  \nIT is a genuine pleasure to be here today.IEvery meeting of such an organizationas this serves to remind us that we are in a newand immeasurably better era in the relationsbetween the railroads and their patrons—anera of friendship and good feeling in whichco-operation and mutual help sound the key-note.  \nOf course,it has always been recognized,at least in a theoretical way,that the trueinterests of shippers and carriers in a greatcommercial country like ours must in the longrun be identical.What helped one helped theother;everybody accepted that as a matterof academic truth.The trouble was therewere too many failures to apply the goldenrule of business in actual practice.Thesefailures were at the root of a great deal of theharmful and destructive policies of railroadregulation which prevailed in the past because,  \nin the last analysis,harsh regulation is basedon the false premise that the interests of rail-roads and their patrons,instead of beingmutual,are hostile and opposed.  \n## Best Service Recordsin Transportation History\n\nThe experiences of recent years have beenbringing about a profound change of feelingin these respects.Even before the war thenecessity for less regulation and more volun-tary harmonizing of measures and purposes,as between railroads and shippers,was be-ginning to appeal to the popular mind.Thewar itself showed what co-operative effortcould do in handling a volume of trafficwhich previously would have been consideredimpossible with the facilities at hand.Sincethe war,we have made the still more importantdiscovery that,under peace conditions andwith the restoration of private management,it is possible,by voluntary co-operation be-tween carriers and patrons,to surpass eventhe best that was accomplished under thespur of military necessity.  \nIn bringing about this era of better feelingand finer results,no agencies have been morepowerful and effective than the RegionalAdvisory Boards,of which this is the largestand most important with respect to theamount and value of traffic i","cbCaisdPpaZWd7QD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisdPpaZWd7QD","pdf",295429,"English","# Our New Era of Good
