Taft Speech in Chicago on Public Opinion and Reciprocity
In Chicago on June 6 Taft stressed reliance on public opinion to win passage of the Canadian reciprocity bill in the Senate. He argued opposition is stronger in appearance than fact and urged optimism for next week’s committee report while noting lumber, paper, and farmers as affected groups. The President urged no fear for farmers, cited world price factors in foods, and hoped Canadian supply could lower living costs. He warned against monopolistic lumber trade and called for forest openness to Canada. The speech touched on education for boys and cautioned against overreliance on advice, ending with a reflection on public schooling and vocational paths.
