McAdoo Announces Federal Rail Policy Against Politics
The policy bars railroad officers and employees from holding political offices or roles, soliciting funds, steering campaigns, or pressing political causes. Any violation leads to immediate dismissal, with a note that severing ties to U S rail service is required to run for office. The aim is to show rail workers under federal control cannot join political machines.
