As indicated to Secretary Freeman. I feel it would strengthen the hand of anyone trying to negotiate voluntary agreements If Congress would start now in earnest on the problem and have hearings on the proposals many of us have introduced. These proposals would raise import duties and also establish a reasonable quota system. If we were having hearings. on the many bills pending in the House providing for reasonable increases in import duties. we might assist in reaching voluntary agreements very soon. I certainly commend the gentleman from Iowa . and the gentleman from North Dakota . for taking this time on a most important problem.
