The administration found that it had to reckon with the element that de mande relief measures for 'the farmer. The result was the substitute for tbe Norris hill. Angus Wilton McLean, was largely instrumental in framing the measure that became a law. As a member, of War-Finance Corporation, and a practicajfarmer, he knew what was needed to give proper aid. Mr, McLean was assisted by Mx. Meyer head" of that corporation.. "'I enqit to say to that the men who 1 drafted this legislation,'' said Senator Simmons, did it in a spirit if sympath with agriculture, antf not In 9 .spirit -of hostility.

' Agricultural Pressure "Republican leaden were reluctant to accept this legislation. Their friends in Wall Street want to keep the government out of the money pro Tiding business.

"But there are real possibilities In the legislation agreed to nnder pres sure from the agricultural bloc in the Senate. The Harding administra tion deservea but little credit 'or what was cone, ior it puuea oexic o it from the start. Senator Simmons warned Mr. Lodge that he would nev er consent to a recess or adjourn ment until the House had put through that relief measure. ' ; "Democrats have been patient with tbe Harding administration. They waited to see what it would do to carry out itl promlaes to the people.
