It seems that everyone agrees on at least one thingrthe federal government should sell Conrail. The problem is that Congress cannot make up its mind who should be allowed to buy it. In 1981, Congress. ordered the railroad sold. Last year, after evaluating several bids, the Administration presented a plan to sell Conrail to the Norfolk Southern Corporation. This was approved by the Senate by a vote of 54 to 39 on February 4. Yet the House still has not taken action, despite strong assurances from the leadership of the House Energy and Commerce Committee that it supports the sale. Time is now running out. With the 99th Congress nearing adjournment, and the bidders becoming increasingly frustrated, the chances of a sale of Conrail this year are slipping away. Congress must act quickly to get this sale moving again.
