Plan for Union Pacific reorganization to government control
A detailed proposal urges the United States to take majority control of Union Pacific, surrendering 12 of 12 directors to a government board, and issuing 3 percent perpetual bonds to fund the plan. The scheme aims to stabilize earnings, leverage government bonds for national circulation, and manage the railroad’s debts while preserving service across the West. It notes the government must address relations with the Union Pacific amid maturing obligations and the broader transportation role.
