Rail expansion urged to unlock industrial growth and trade
The speech argues heavy investment is needed in railway facilities as freight traffic rises 45 percent while railcars grow only 2 percent. Without faster expansion, lumber, wheat, and coal shipments will stall, hindering new industries and risking an industrial crisis. It cites a proposed $2 billion yearly railroad investment for the next three years. Also included is a class of 1919 business meeting update and updated alumni addresses.
