THE PRESIDENT-THE FARMERS

The middle course is usually con- sidered the easiest way in everything It is thought that little worry results from being "nice" to everybody and every faction, even those opposing each other violently.
 Not so with a President of the United States however. President Harding has difficult path laid out for him if he attempts to continue the acquiescent attitude popularly attrib- uted to him.
 The middle course led him to give the farmers bloc what it wanted, a dirt" farmer on the Federal Reserve Board of directors-a position which should call for personal ability and knowledge and not for membership in any one class. But the middle course kept him from agreeing to anything that would make such action a prec- edent. .......
 The influence of the middle course may be seen in the remarks he made at the opening of the National Agri- cultural Conference when he said that the whole country has an acute con- cern with the conditions and the prob | lems which those interested in farm ing had met to consider, which mat ters, he asserted, were not to be re- garded as primarily the concern of either a class or a section Tor bloc, ' the latter words being interpolated in the text of the manuscript from which he read.
 It is to be regretted that President Harding thought it necessary to agree to appoint dirt" farmer because of his pursuit. It is not to be regretted that dirt" farmer will be appointed if the appointee has the knowledge and ability necessary for the position
 But more than all it is to be re-
 
 hold to that middle course, savorine of too great desire to please all fac tions. If he would take the bit in his teeth, as he did in the matter of sus- pending civil service rules in order tt give job to an eX-soldier whose hands were blown off in training camI in France, and take a frner stane more often, even those whom he of fended by such attitude would have more confidence in him. His recon mendations to the conference, how ever cover the ground well in a gen era way. They were provision fol more capital for farmers, extension of cooperative marketing, spreading of scientific data, protection to farmer land consumer from price fluctuations development of waterways and cleo trification of railroads, and reclama tion development.
