Warren Gammon letter to Warren G. Harding, September 28, 1920
No full textIn this letter dated September 28, 1920, Warren Gammon, of Warren Gammon & Son Polled Herefords, writes to Senator Warren G. Harding regarding his comments on the Esch-Cummins Act (1920) at an upcoming speech in Des Moines. The Essh-Cummins Act was proposed by Albert B. Cummins, former Iowa Governor and, at the time, current Interstate Commerce Commission Chair under President Woodrow Wilson. Also known as the Transportation Act, the Esch-Cummins Bill restored the private ownership of the nation's railways after the railroad system was nationalized to meet the needs of World War I. The bill was not favored by railway workers due to its prohibition of strikes, wage bargaining for laborers, and infringements on other laborer rights. Gammon suggests that Harding approach the bill cautiously in his upcoming speech, as Harding voted for the bill, and Iowa residents do not favor the bill or Cummins. Cummins' political opponent, democrat Claude R. Porter, was actively using the bill against Cummins.
