Talk:Hepburn Act

Untitled
The Hepburn Act also extended regulation to the interstate transportation of oil in pipelines and made them common carriers.

Remedy for what social ill?
Could some one who knows more than I add to this article information about the problems that the Hepburn Act was designed to remedy? TIA. v —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.115.30.163 (talk) 21:43, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Improvement
This Wikipedia article is not inaccurate but it is very incomplete. A much better description is pages 52-59, "A History of the ICC, From Panacea to Palliative," Ari and Olive Hoogenboom, W.W. Norton & Company, 1976. Does anyone care to get a hold of this book and improve the article? Qualicum (talk) 16:32, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
