Alaska Rail Question Divides Officials On Government Ownership
George Clinton reports the Alaska railroad commission will soon decide on government ownership and possibly recommend purchase of the Alaska Northern. Conservationists warn a government start with that line risks future entrenchment by private interests while cautious support notes potential gains if controlled. The commission, led by Maj. J. J. Morrow and others, has toured Alaska sites from Controller Bay to Fairbanks examining routes and development conditions for a possible government rail system.
