244 AGRICULTURAL RELIEF Mr. Wyant. My position is this, that out of every dollar’s worth of manufactured products of steel, wire, machinery and every kind, the farmer gets 85 cents for food supplies, clothing, ete. That is a benefit to the farmer. Now, I believe that if there is any advantage in that, if any protection for the manufacturer, I believe the farmer ought to be placed on the same basis; and I have voted accordingly, as my record will show. 4 Mr. AgwEIL, Do you think the equilization fee will put him in 1at position: Mr. Wyant. I am not sure about that. I am in favor of doing something to relieve the farmer; whether the equilization fee is the best method or not I do not know. Mr. AsweLL. Would you be in favor of a bill without the fee in order to get some legislation? Mr. Wyant. I am in favor of any bill that will give him relief. I may not go the limit, but I will go te any extent that will give the farmers relief in a bill I think the President will approve | Mr. ASWELL. aon do not think he will approve—— r. Wyant. He has not approved Mr. AsweLr. I do not think he al of the fee it if it goes back with thy Sg ation fee in it. BO v r. Wyant. I think that will be futile. My suggestion i representatives of the farmers agree upon cometh the i os tion, something that the President will approve of, and if a ot get all you want this Congress, get it from the next C Ses: Tan net Mr. WELLER.
