Senator Gallinger Attacks Dingley Tariff Critics
Senator Gallinger stated that certain Republicans sowing discontent over the Dingley tariff accused former Speaker Cannon as the target of blame. He argued the high cost of living was not caused by the tariff and defended the tariff act as not responsible for Cannon's removal. He denounced claims that free trade ideologies were growing among regressive Republicans and warned Old Guard farmers would be pushed toward free trade in agricultural products. The Senate continued floor debate with Gallinger urging a return to protective tariffs and opposing the Underwood tariff.
