Open Letter Urges Government Ownership of Railroads and Telegraphs
Reverend Silliman Blagden writes to Senator Francis G. Newlands arguing for U S government ownership and control of all railroads and telegraph systems to improve safety service and reduce costs. He cites wartime efficiency and public welfare as key benefits and cites past railroad fatalities as justification for nationalization. A reply from Newlands acknowledges the letter and promises consideration.
