Controversy over tariff bill as Morrison plan advances
Washington April 7. Senator Brown argues for the Morrison tariff bill, countering Morgan and Butler on constitutional guarantees for appropriations. The vote on Converse’s wool tariff proposal marks a political signal rather than a turning point. Debates focus on tariff policy, party divisions in the South, and upcoming conventions. Randall’s Pennsylvania delegation and the Ohio platform are noted, while party feuds surface over Chicago representation and northern and southern splits.
