Burke Warns Bryan Could Do Harm in White House
Congressman James Francis Burke of Pittsburgh argues in a talk on The Powers of the President that electing Bryan would risk a powerful executive able to rule and ruin the legislative branch. He contrasts Taft and Bryan as distinct leaders and warns about a potential four year term with vast disbursements and policy shifts. The speech notes Bryan’s party losses over fifteen years and questions constructive policy under his leadership. Also referenced are national guards near Indianapolis and recent prison escapes and arrests related to a Mountieville prisoner serving a life sentence.
