Milwaukee Deadlock Over Car Pool Plan Sparks Debate
At the Milwaukee Traffic Club annual dinner, Don ald D. Conn criticizes a proposed freight car pooling scheme backed by government funds. He warns it would create an oversized private agency under federal charter, fail to raise car capacity, and erode private railroad initiative, arguing transportation shortages stem from broader railroad weaknesses rather than car shortages. He notes the plan would retire thousands of cars and replace them with 50 ton steel cars, challenging the feasibility and impact on operations and competition.
