Platform of the G O P Cites Broad Policy Aims
The platform endorses federal restraint to curb stock over-issuance by interstate carriers, supports rural mail service, good roads funding, and civil service laws. It condemns Jim Crow practices, endorses public health agencies, old soldiers benefits, Cuban relations, and says Panama Canal plans fulfill long‑standing hopes. It contrasts Republican prosperity with Democratic adversity and denounces socialism and government ownership.
