Debates on Cuba Acquisition Bill by Senator Thom
Senator Thom of Kentucky objects to a measure aiding Cuba negotiation arguing it harms Louisiana sugar interests and New Orleans trade. He warns Cuban control could shift cotton exports away from New Orleans, shrinking the city and state economies. He recalls Jefferson’s constitutional concerns and questions the bill’s timing and cost.
