McLane bill seeks new Pacific Railroads Supervisors board
Maryland congressman McLane introduces a House bill to abolish the current Board of five Government Directors and replace it with a Supervisors Board. The panel, including Interior officials and a Justice Department officer, would oversee Government interests in Pacific Railroads, hear complaints, investigate, and advise Congress. The measure, supported by the Interior Department, targets subsidy funded lines and bonded construction debts.
