Senate Inter state Commerce Committee report shows Kuhn, Loeb & Company and other bankers earned nearly 9.5 million in 1921 to 1930 while railroad officers were paid 6.069 million. The 1915-17 reorganization expanded debt, reduced long term obligations briefly, then financing via fixed-interest debt erased benefits, leading to the 1933 bankruptcy. The panel warns the episode holds lessons for future reorganizations of Missouri Pacific.
