Hearing Before a Sub-Committee of the Committee on Naval Affairs, United States Senate, Under Senate Resolution 291 (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
A 1914 Senate hearing sheds light on coal, railroads, and power in the American South. This excerpt presents the unfolding questions, testimonies, and behind?the?scenes concerns that shaped national policy and commercial strategy around coal supply and freight rates.
This edition centers on a specific investigation into how coal is moved, priced, and controlled across multiple railroad networks. It traces the tensions between public oversight and private interests, and shows how leaders and lawyers argued for or against the arrangements that kept coal flowing to naval and industrial users.
- How freight rates and coal sourcing were discussed in official testimony and letters
- The roles of executives, bankers, and committees in shaping transportation policy
- Connections between rail lines, ports, and potential coal terminals
- Historical context for federal inquiries into rail and coal interests
Ideal for readers of early 20th?century American industrial history and government investigations.
