The President Goes into Action

Anderson, Paul Y. | April 3, 1929 issue

The President has just administered dreadful shocks to two of the most important elements which supported him in the election. He has shocked the farmers into pained amazement by disclosing that his personal, patented, and widely advertised secret formula for solving the farm problem does not exist, and that the task of solving it rests precisely where it always has existed, namely, with Congress. The little surprise for the farmers arrived rather suddenly this week. For days the farm-bloc leaders had been besieging the White House for information.
