upright had Jhst been bolted into
place when the accident occurred.
The rope, n new one. stretched as taut
as bowstring. and the steel upright
oscillated violently, 30 that IL any Of

hurled to- the ground below with great
force. Had the rope held, it Is pos
sible that the girder would have fallen

the workmen, but 1t broke with re-
port like pistol shot before the strain
on tho upright became too severe.

The Farmer Has Wall
 Street Crowd Guessing
By Associated Press

New York, February 3.-Wall streets interest in events at Wash ington has drifted rapidly from In- ternational affairs to the much dis cussed Agricultural bloc" and the position Of the farmer in the coun- try's social and economic scheme.
 Almost every recent utteranee of leading banking officials has dwelt with emphasis on this situation. The February circular of the Mechanics and Metals National bank, which has many correspondents and other di- rect connections throughout the farming sections of the west, says in part:
 "The farmers i'll fortune, unlike its general recognition, has not been a matter od overnight development. It has been a feature of increasing significance over a period of nearly two years. or since the price of food stuff began their long downward sweep.
 Like the hardship which has been an almost universal feature of conl- meree and economy in the postwar readjustment period. the hardship of agriculture has been attended by over production collapsed markets, blocked distribution and low prices and has made the lot of the producer a particularly hard one. This applies alike to the corn and wheat growers of the Middle West; the cattle pro- ducers of the Western range. .he cotton planter of the South and the potato farmer of New England"
