It notes that burdened by law and competition, subsidies scarcely cover interest, with calls to extend terms and avoid government ownership while boosting security through asset growth. The Union Pacific, Central Pacific, and Sioux City and Pacific lines are highlighted with specific liability, earnings, and asset figures.
