![["The document is a response to a proposal for a solution to national economic problems.

This is seen as a way to stimulate private construction and reduce unemployment. The author also suggests trading wheat for oil."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Correspondence%20Series,%201968-1986%20/CAC_CC_109_4_22_1_0000-District%20Office,%20Jones%20Clippings,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_4_22_36_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence on National Economic Solutions Proposal Between Frederick E.
