Taft Campaign Funds Reply on Corporate Contributions
Taft states the Republican national committee accepts no corporate money under the 1907 law forbidding such donations to campaigns for presidential electors or congress. He criticizes pledge publicity gaps and notes corruption penalties up to 5000 for corporations and 1000 or a year in prison for individuals. He suggests labor leaders do not control the vote and cautions voters act on personal convictions rather than leaders.
