Abstract

Republicans and the Rest of Us
Kendrick, Benjamin B. | July 31, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

The past eight years have been peculiarly dull in politics. The man who occupied the White House during the greater part of the period contributed materially to the dullness, but the chief contributing factor is to be found in the supine character of the opposition to dominant Republicanism. Prosperity and propaganda have converted a majority of people in the U.S. to the political creed of the business man. Prosperity for some lines of business may be made by governmental action or inaction. Tariff legislation, easy access to natural resources, favorable tax laws, favorable banking laws, the granting of valuable franchises, the jailing of agitators, are examples of action.
