Senator Youngs Great Speech in the Upper House
Former Atlante man Lafayette Young delivers a forceful defense of protective tariffs in the U.S. Senate. He argues against any rule limiting amendments to tariff bills, warns that farmers and manufacturers rely on measured protection, cites Massachusetts and Iowa as examples, and denounces free trade advocates as selfish and dangerous to American industry. He rails against demagogic rhetoric and urges Congress to back enduring protections for domestic production.
