Republicans settle farm relief plank without equalization fee
After lengthy debate the resolutions committee finished the four platform drafts for the Republican National Convention. The farm relief plank omits any equalisation fee from McNary Haugen while the prohibition plank calls for strict enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment. The Borah dry plank drew a decisive vote with Senator Ware of Pennsylvania preferring not to oppose it, and other platform items were approved with minor clerical changes. The group concluded nearly 36 hours of sessions.
