Hearst Papers outline reform and world peace plan
The Hearst papers propose an equal basis for English speaking peoples to preserve peace with no minority representation in foreign leagues.

Other points include installation of President and Congress on January first after November elections, a federal sales tax to reduce other taxes, a thirteen month calendar with four week months and Saturday holidays, construction of a Nicaragua Canal, and acquisition of West Indies as debt payment.
