Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the proceedings of a 1917 conference held by S. Davies Warfield, to address concerns over the financial instability of the US railroad industry. It begins with a letter sent to industry leaders, laying out the urgent need to address issues such as increased operating expenses, government regulation, and the need to maintain profitability in order to continue financing the country's development and war effort. Responses from over 500 leaders representing a wide range of interests in the industry, from major life insurance companies and banks to railroads themselves, are included in the text. The resulting discussions at the conference circled around the complex and multifaceted issues the industry faced, touching on questions of fair pricing and regulation, investor protection, and the need for government cooperation in managing the crisis. The author presents an in-depth look at the challenges facing the railroad industry during a pivotal moment in history, providing valuable insights into the economic and political landscape of the time.
