Heavy lobbying by the railroads killed legislation that would have enabled slurry pipelines to compete for coal freight after a 20-year effort to acquire eminent domain rights for pipelines owners. The defeat shocked the National Coal Association, which backed the bill. Political pressure from agricultural as well as rail labor and management was too strong for the pipelines to overcome. (DCK)
