Harding blocks Norris bill and Senate backs McNary substitute
President Harding blocked the Norris farm bill while the Senate passed Senator McNary of Oregon's substitute. Norris attacked the Kellogg proposal as favoring bankers and middlemen, with little aid to farmers, prompting intense partisan clashes over farm credit, export aims, and government involvement. The article also notes criticisms of the shipping board, Federal Reserve actions against farmers, and broader tariff and tax issues facing Congress.
