Charles Porter Says Transportation is Vital (Continued from page one) age reductions of freight and pas senger rail taxes. He made a brief description of another of his bills that to free a billion dollars of the Railroad Re tirement Fund into the federal sec ondary mortgage housing market. He said direct loans to home buy ers would return about 25 million dollars a year to the fund about 1 per cent higher than the interest rates of government securities in which the fund now is invested.
