Taft Appeals for Aid as Floor Fight Builds Over Reciprocity
The Taft administration faces a hard Senate floor fight as the Root amendment to the Canadian reciprocity bill, affecting print and wood pulp, is not defeated in finance committee. President and Secretary Knox urge Democratic senators to oppose the amendment while pro reciprocity forces plan victory on the floor. The vote on the free list is postponed for weeks, with several Republicans and progressives seeking a floor vote, possibly by mid July.
