This folder contains a copy of Senator John F. Kennedy's remarks given in Chattanooga, Tennessee. In his speech, the Senator discusses industrial developments and the migration of industry from New England to the South. He cites several factors that give the South an unfair economic advantage, such as tax subsidies and lower minimum wages, and proposes legislative action that would level the playing field for industry in all regions of the country.
