Washington June 13 President Truman set a crony pattern early in his administration with John Wesley Snyder, a Missouri friend, becoming the first major appointee in 1945 as federal loan administrator later advancing to Treasury Secretary.

He rose from Missouri banking to national finance, born June 21, 1896, in Jonesboro Arkansas.
