13 Roosevelt's Square Deal Believed workers had a right to join a union without interference championed open shop for gov. workers Gained support of farmers, small business, professionals and labor seen as willing to take on big money helped middle class, attacked trusts and protected business from organized labor unreasonable demands Pure Food and Drug Act Initially reaction by Meat Inspection Act as a result of The Jungle Act aimed at safety of drugs Conservation Roosevelt was an outdoorsman 1902 National Reclamation Act - allowed for use of land for irrigation Development of National Conservation commission Led to the development of the National parks and government land preserved Race Mixed Record - supports ideas but dishonorably discharges soldiers who complain about race discrimination
14 Taft Handpicked by Roosevelt Wanted to be a judge - wife wanted White House Not a politician Tried to lower tariffs Old Guard Republicans high jacked Compromise led to 16th Amendment and first tax on corporate profits Mann - Elkins Act - expanded role of ICC but also a compromise with the Old Guard over Progressives Opened land previously closed for development Prosecuted more anti-trust suites in one term than Roosevelt did in two
