Taft helped establish US court in China and reformed Shanghai
Taft, as head of the Philippine government, pressed for China policy reform and backed Judge Wilfley in creating the US court for China. The court cleaned up Shanghai and other cities, disbarred shady lawyers, curbed gamblers and offenders, and strengthened the US reputation abroad.
