Trust Lobbyists As Farmers Use Wall Street Actors to Fight Reciprocity
Washington reports reveal that farmers backing anti reciprocity are aided by Wall Street lobbyists disguised as farm advocates. Agencies like the American Lumber Manufacturers and Pulp and Paper Associations funded the anti reciprocity campaign, with John D. Rockefeller-linked firms among clients. The Monetary Commission's travel and expenses raise questions about its fiscal conduct and control, while scrutiny of sugar trust probes faces political resistance.
