Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
The Rosenblum Truck Lines and Manhattan Truck Lines applied to the Interstate Commerce Commission for contract carrier permits under the so-called "grandfather clause" of the Motor Carrier Act of 1935. Prior to July 1, 1935, the applicants hauled only for common carriers by motor vehicle and, in each case, principally for a single common carrier. The freight so handled was always solicited by a common carrier and accumulated at its terminal. The applicants carried only the overflow freight, employing their own insurance and paying their own operating and maintenance costs. The Interstate Commerce Commission's finding that the applicants' equipment was operated under the direction and control of the common carriers was held to be unsupported by the evidence in the lower court. Held, applicants are not entitled to permits because they are not contract carriers within the meaning of the act. United States v. N. E. Rosenblum Truck Lines, 315 U.S. 50, 62 S. Ct. 445 (1942).
