23S AGRICULTURAL RELIEF Mr, Werner. You will recall that South Dakota elected a Demo- cratic governor two years ago. oo Mr. Jones. You said you did heroic service in behalf of the Presi- dent in 1924. Are you in favor of drafting him again for 1928? rp WeLLER. Just between you and I, T am not. [Laughter] nr. AsweLL. You have a Democratic 20vernor out there now, have —~u not? Mr. WELLER. Yes, sir. Mr. AsweLL. Do you know him? Mr. WELLER. I know him; yes, sir. Mr. Aswern. You think highly of him? Mr. WEeLLER. I think a great deal of Governor Balom. Mr. Aswrrn. He is openly opposed to the equilization fee and he made a speech on Jackson Day and said he opposed the eauilization fee. What have you to say about that? Mr. WeLLER. The way the governor expressed that was that it tended to create special privilege. Mr. Asmat, He opposed the McNeary-Haugen bill and said so in that speech; I heard him. Mr, WELLER. May I not correct you in saying that the governor said the McNary-Haugen bill was objectionable, for the reason that he said it was like all special-privilege proposals? Mr. AswELL. Whatever his reason was, he said he was opposed to it; and that is the way he expressed it. He said he was opposed to the equalization fee. I heard him say that. And you say you like him and he is your governor, too. Mr. WELLER. I like him pretty well. EW iy How about Mr. McMaster. Are you in favor of his e Senate? Mr. WeLLER. I also like Senator McMaster pretty well. Mr. ASWELL. Are you for him, too? Mr. WELLER. Yes; we like Senator McMaster..

We, of course, want manufacturing to continue to prosper in America; 1 war American labor to be employed, and all that. Ir. Kercram. There is not anybody that does not want that. Mr. WELLER. Sure.
