COOLIDGE POLICY
Is Ardent Advocate of Views
of President on Self
Help for Farmer.
HY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

President Coolidse's policy of self
help for the farmer. as opposed TO
Government aid, will be typified by
the appointment of DR.. William Nj.
Jardine of Kansas to be Secretary OF
Agriculture. DR.. Jardines appoint
ment ia believed to be imminent.
The Kansas congressional delesa-
ton's eleventh-hour unanimous ap-
proval of him, after the legations
sympathies were at one time divided
between two Kansas menS had the
effect, DR.. Jardine's supporters think,
of turning Mr.. Coolidge definitely in
his favor. He has been well TO the
fore in the Presidents considerations
for three months. AS long ago as
the middle of November DR.. Jardine
had come to the front in the unpre-
Cedentedly spirited race for the aG-
ricultural portfolio.
The scheme for Federal cooper
ative marketing board. recently
recommended by the Coolidge farm
commission as agriculture's most
pressing need, is a Jardine proposal
DR.. Jardine is a member of the COM
mission and it Is strongly probable
that he was the author of the CO.
operative plank in the platform"
of farm relief laid before the Presi-
dent and Congress
IL Foe of Money Aid.
The head of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College is an outspoken foe
OF artificial stimulants. like Govern
ment financial grants, for relief o.
the agricultural problem. That is
why Jardine was an uncompr omising
enemy of the McNary-Haugen bill.
His hostility to that project, which
had the support of the late Secretary
Wallace. was one of the things that
originally attracted President Cool
idge's attention to the Kansan.
DR.. Jardines general policy for
agriculture was set forth tersely in
the Nations Business. the official
organ of the United States Chamber
of Commerce. in 1924. In an article
entitled I'VE Must Stop Exporting
Wheat" which earnestly adjured the
American farmer to stop cultivating
superfluous wheat acreage and turn
his attention to diversified farming,
DR. Jardine set forth his agricultural
relief creed in these terms:
We have passed the day in Amer
lea when we can grow wheat for ex-
port in competition with Canada,
Australia and the Argentine. The
sooner we turn to production of the
other crops. the better it will be.
Fifty million acres. properly planted
to good seed and properly cared for
in the harvesting and marketing, will
make wheat growing profitable in the
United States and at the same time

kind of wheat demanded in the
