![["Congressman Ed Gossett highlights the significant freight-rate discrimination against the Southwest, with rates 75% higher than the Official Zone. This discrimination hinders industrial growth and economic development in the region. He calls for action from Congress to equalize freight rates and eliminate existing inequalities. The current system benefits Northern interests and suppresses industrial growth in the Southwest. Efforts for reform have been hindered by a well-organized lobby supported by the railroad industry. The only way to address this issue is through legislation to equalize freight rates and remove existing discriminations."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/%20CAC_CC_047_1_5_26_0000-Freight%20Rates,%201945/%20CAC_CC_047_1_5_26_0000-Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_26_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Freight Rate Discrimination: The Southwestern Industry's Battle")

![["Mrs. Oxford sent a postcard to Mr. Schwabe endorsing the \"Merchant Seamen's War Service Act.\" Mr. Schwabe received the postcard and is studying the bill. He acknowledges the important service of the Merchant Marine but questions the differences in benefits compared to the G.I. Bill of Rights for soldiers and sailors.
