REP. NELSON POINTS NEED
OF FREIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Declares Better Service and Lower Rate Would
Aid Consumer and Producer.

To the EdIt2r, The Washington Herald;
Responding to your request. wish
to say that. in my judgment. some
OF the most important matters be-'
fore our country and Congress AT
the present time are:
/. A proper ,readjustment OF our
railroad service and freight rates.
so as to enable the producers Of
our agricultural districts. as well as
the manufacturers in our Industrial
centers. to transport their products
at a moe reasonable cost, and to
help reduce the tremendous spread
existing today between the producer
and the consumer. This readtust-
ment is absolutely demanded by our
economic situation today.
9. Another important matter is
that OF the tariff and foreign rela-
tions, with a view of not only
bringing in revenue. but to protect
our interests as a nation. Again, the
situat tfon, Is one In which the 'in-
terests Of both the producer and
the consumer must be conserved.
with view of protecting our sn-
dustries. and yet not making the
tariff rates too burdensome upon
the ultimate consumers of our
country.
Manq of our industries had a
very prosperous foreign business be-
fore the war, which today are not
selling any products at all to for
eign countries because of the eco
'nomic situation and the exchange
rates now existing in European
countries and because of the fact
that we have no foreign fnanciai
program which is adequate. In our
tariff legislation, as we'll as in our
foreign relations, we must be care
full to note that we have recently
passed from a debtor nation to a
creditor nation. and that We must
plan to build up foreign trade in
order to enhance our industrial and
agricultural enterprises. Of course
our first concern is to conserve our
home interests. as I understand that
we consume at home about 90 per
cent of all our products as a nation.
3. The revenue bill, or Federal
taxation, is another very important
measure and one that will require
the very best thought of Congress
we HiuSl MAKE some duJuStInenls
here, but we must not do anything
that would shift the burden of tax
alton from the one who Is best
able to pay to the one who is least
able to pay such taxes. Yet some
arrangement must be made that will
| enhance business and agricultural
prosperity and productivity. and Al
the same time will bring the nee
essary revenue to our Federal gov
/ ernment. Our aim should be the
| greatest prosperity and highest ef'
| ficiency in commerce. industry anC
agriculture at the earliest possible
/ date.
4. Aid to agriculture Is another
very vital matter at the present
! time. as agriculture is the founda'
/ tion stone of our entire financia
