Taft backs freedom to worship in Norwich address
President Taft said in Norwich that he favored letting every man worship God as he chooses. The senate voted to submit the income tax question to state legislatures for a constitutional amendment. The corporation tax amendment to the tariff bill, Taft suggested, passed the senate 60 to 11. Roosevelt worries the senate. The library committee could not choose between two busts of the figure, one in repose, one in strenuous attitude. Senator Borah, in favor of an income tax, said trusts back the corporation tax to shift the bill onto the people.
