Union Pacific backs AIL program in testimony
Carl R. Gray president of Union Pacific told the Senate interstate commerce committee that railroads will cooperate with the administration’s railroad reorganization plan. He argued the amendments proposed by Donald Richberg rest on false premises and that regional committees cannot empower themselves without the coordinator. Gray opposed labor representation on regional committees, saying the coordinator would rule on all questions. He predicted labor would face one fewer procedural step with labor omitted.
