Railway Express case: Ms and Ts

Let's practice our Ms and Ts on the Railway Express case on page 641.

Ends =M (mischief): Advertisements on trucks "constitutes a distraction to...drivers and pedestrians"

Means=T (trait or classification drawn): the law prohibited trucks from advertising the products of third persons but not products sold by the owner of the truck

In other words, advertising on A's trucks saying "buy B's widgets" was banned, but A's trucks could contain ads saying "buy My widgets."

Try to draw your M and T diagrams for this scenario.
