An arbitration board was appoint- ed to determine the status of the four per cent debentures of the Grand Trunk Pacific, which was built with British money, and a ma- jority report held the securities Wworthless. William H. Taft, now chiet justice ot the United States, was a mem'.er of the board, and submitted a minority report in which he upheld the compensation claims of the stoc':iolders most of whom are in England. Since the board's finding was ren- dered, the stockholders have carried on continuous agitation for some compensation from the Canadian government, alleging that the Grand Trunk Pacific is one of the most protfiable lines of the Canadian Na- tional Railways.
