Taft’s Tariff Stand Aims at Tea Tax Reduction

He suggests alternative revenue from corporate dividends or stamp taxes and argues the burden should not fall on consumers. He also backs modifying the Dingley plan downward and supports inheritance tax while pressing for broader tariff changes to aid trade with Brazil and other nations.
