Inaugural Address of Governor Glans Iowa
Governor Glans delivers a long inaugural address praising Iowa’s lawfulness and progress while urging national action on corporate power and taxation. He argues for paid capital stock, tariffs with reciprocity, and federalized controls, and presses for railroad valuation reform, labor relations, and strong support for the state university and normal schools. He salutes Iowa’s wartime legacy and calls for equal opportunity and justice, ending with a pledge to govern for people over property.
