Democratic Platform Summary Reflects tariff reform and anti monopoly drive
The platform calls for tariff only for revenue, downgrading duties on essentials, and gradual cuts to protect industries. It supports strong anti trust enforcement, ending private monopolies, direct popular election of senators, presidential primaries, and bans on corporate campaign contributions. It backs one term for presidents, rail and telecom rate regulation, banking reform for distress relief, and agricultural credit study. It urges flood and land use actions, rural post delivery, Alaska rights, and pure food standards.
