these stricken people. One can we'll
believe that they will not survive if

way that anti-dumping legislation
must be considered first by the
special session of congress which be-
gins April II.

have suggested that not only must
there be protection against imports,
but that vigorous steps must be
taken to make certain American
products themselves are furnished
with staple market conditions.
Along with the other aspects Of
the problem transportation condi-
tions came in for discussion. The
transportation situation was pic
tured as very serious in some
