Speech On Tariff Law By Senator Taft At Banquet
Taft delivers a detailed defense of the Dingley tariff and the 1909 tariff law at a banquet. He argues the bill protects industries, boosts revenue, and funds national projects, contrasting Republican unity with insurgent dissent. He notes congressional compromises, cites tax and tariff outcomes, and defends presidential leadership under Taft.
