Sweet Plans 10 Foster Shipping On Mississippi

Washington D C Dec 15 Congressman Sweet of Iowa urges interstate commerce action to balance rail and water rates on the Mississippi River. He cites the transportation act granting IC C power over water rates and seeks authority to extend river commission jurisdiction to the entire stream. The move aims for a six foot channel enabling north to gulf traffic.

Waterways urged to foster rail and water transport growth
