Rail bill clears House as Senate may accept amendments
The House passed the rail restructuring bill today and sent it to the Senate for action on amendments. It would create a federal coordinator to streamline capital, cut duplication, and extend oversight to railroad holding companies under the Interstate Commerce Commission, while repealing the 1920 recapture clause to cancel $153 million in government claims. Indications point to Senate acceptance of the House changes without a conference. Joseph B. Eastman, an Interstate Commerce commissioner, may be named coordinator by President Roosevelt. The measure would protect employees from discharge during service consolidations or terminal facility changes under the coordinator’s plan.
