Coolidge Plan Would Spend 50 Million Yearly On Rivers
In a speech at a Missouri university dinner Dwight D. Davis promoted a $50,000,000 annual federal program for inland waterways development. He urged Congress to authorize this level of spending for the remainder of the Coolidge administration, calling it essential to lower freight costs and boost public dividends. The Ohio and Great Lakes systems were highlighted as key beneficiaries, with rivers already carrying millions of tons and valued freight. Davis noted prior year appropriations and cited potential 30 percent freight-rate savings, aiming for a three year completion window.
