Open Forum on Tariffs and Roosevelt Support
Dear editor I was interested last Saturday that the Evening Huronite has made public a stand for Roosevelt. I present the true facts on the tariff issue with statistics from Secretary Wallace and a critique of the Canadian Reciprocal Trade Agreement. I argue repeal is needed to protect American farmers and cite imports versus exports and the Smoot Hawley tariff. Donald Fisher.
