Roosevelt telegrams and Cummins defend Tendersons stand
Dubuque Iowa September 18. The telegram from Oyster Bay dated September 17 asks Speaker Henderson to reconsider his decision not to run. Republican leaders in Des Moines react to Tendersons withdrawal as a major shock while Governor Cummins supports the speaker’s aligned platform and insists the fight should focus on national issues. The Iowa platform mirrors the Kansas City plank with tariff reform and anti trust language, while endorsing independence for the Philippines with a US protectorate and broader electoral reforms.
