Excerpt from National Association of Railway Commissioners: Proceedings of the Twenty-Eighth Annual Convention, Held at Washington, D. C., November 14-17, 1916 The Convention was called to order by the President, Robert R. Prentis, of Virginia, with William H. Connolly as Secretary. The President. We are here in this room this morning as the guests of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and at my request the Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission, Dr. Meyer. has consented to address us. Dr. Meyer is one of those gentlemen who left the professor's chair to engage in public work. These college men seem to be pushing us considerably at this period of our history. (Applause). He went to the Wisconsin Commission, and so commended himself to the then President of the United States that a few years ago he was appointed to the Interstate Commerce Commission. He will interest us because of his learning. He will speak pleasantly to us because we are his guests, and we are going to listen to him with pleasure and profit, because he is Dr. Meyer. (Applause). Address Of Honorable B. H. Meyer, Chairman Of The Interstate Commerce Commission. Chairman Meyer: Mr. President and gentlemen, the First Annual Convention of Railroad Commissioners met in another room of this building on the 5th of March, 1889. I hold in my hand a little volume that contains the proceedings of that Convention. I see before me one face that, according to this record, could have been seen on that occasion, and that gentleman is not yet an old man. That general conference was catted by the first chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission, on In-half of the entire Commission, and was designated a "general conference of Railroad commissioners." The name, National Association of Railway Commissioners, was not adopted until 1901, the year of the adoption of a constitution. Representatives railroad commissions from those states which then had commissions, twenty-eight in number, were brought together on invitation of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The first chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission opened the session of that general conference; and because he did so and his successors did so at succeeding meetings.

Excerpt from National Association of Railway Commissioners: Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth Annual Convention, Held at Washington, D. C. February 17-20, 1914 Among the conspicuous things that have resulted in approximate uniformity throughout the country is the form and substance of annual reports, a matter which is itself of great value to regulating bodies. Another is the uniform demurrage code. Another which is by no means of small importance is the comprehensive system of express rates throughout the country, both as to the rates themselves and the simple and understandable manner of stating them. There are many other particulars in which co-operation and exchange of views have been fruitful of good results. When I speak of co-operation, I speak of it not only as between the State commissions and the Interstate Commerce Commission, but also as between carriers and commissions. The carriers have in a commendable degree co-operated in many ways in respect to the systems of accounts, forms of annual reports and so forth, and have been extremely helpful. After all it is an easy matter to repeat the platitudes that we very often hear, that rates should be reasonable and just and free from undue discrimination, and that carriers are entitled to earn a fair return upon the investment and upon their property; but, while these are sound and while they justify themselves be-cause of their fairness, they are of little comfort either to the public or to the carriers unless they produce fair and just results in concrete form. The public as well as the carriers are interested In the things which are done, the results which are achieved. Therefore it seems to me there has been no time since I have been an attendant upon these conventions when there was so much need for co-operation as at this time. I do not mean co-operation so much with respect to the form, or the formula in which procedure may be had, but with respect to the fundamental principles which underlie and must guide our action in respect to concrete results. It would seem that if the underlying principles are sound, there ought to be less difficulty in arriving at that which is right as a fundamental guide for action, than there would be in respect to the mere form of carrying out those principles. I can, perhaps, best illustrate what I have in mind by a supposititious case which I will cite as an example.
