Editor recalls Brookhart clash at Republican convention
In a pointed column Jack Dalton criticizes Smith Brookhart for speaking against the party at a Republican convention. He argues Brookhart’s platform taunts mainstream Republicans, urges Brookhart to form his own party, and defends the party’s time honored aims while opposing radical factions. He disputes the Cummins Esch railway bill, saying it permits but does not guarantee a five and a half percent return.
