Gratitude for Crisp Speech At Kansas City Western Congress
The Kansas City Times lauded Congressman J F Crisp of Georgia after his address on taxation at the first Western states commercial congress. The speech attacked protective policy, drawn enthusiastic reactions from delegates, and drew sharp exchanges over sugar duties and tariff reductions. A editorial in the same issue praised the tariff argument as a forceful defense of reform and warned about protectionist stances. The paper notes Crisp’s appeal to the western audience and highlights subsequent events including a Memorial day choir gathering and Mrs Chapin’s city lecture to mothers.
