Letter on the railroad situation argues for federal chartering of interstate firms
The letter argues that watered stock and overcapitalization by public service corporations harm taxpayers. It urges a federal charter system requiring stock, bond, and security approval, with conditions and revocation for violations, to curb consolidation and protect competition and citizens’ rights. It cites steel, railroad, gas, and utility consolidations as dangers.
