For the most part they agreed that other roads will have to separate themselves from connecting lines that have been gobbled up in the past if the Attorney- General or his Democratic successor Gesires to press the point. One of the results, it was said, might be to seek to compel the Reading to relinquish its control of the Central Railroad of New Jersey. It was also very possible that the Government would consider what effect the decision might have on the ownership of the ‘Boston and Maine by the New Haven, the ownership by the New York Cen- tral of either the Lake Shore or the Michigan Central and the ownership by the Pennsylvania of some of the sys- tems it controls.
