'''Henry Agard Wallace''' '''(1888 - 1965)''' was a farm leader, agriculture secretary (1933–40)  [[Democratic]] politician, and Vice President under [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] from 1941–1945.  A sympathizer of the [[communist]] [[Soviet Union]], Wallace was replaced as VP by the dying President Roosevelt, a Freemason, with a fellow Freemason [[Harry Truman]].  Wallace then became Secretary of Commerce, but opposed President [[Harry Truman]] on the [[Cold War]], arguing for friendship with the Soviet Union.  He was fired in 1946 by Truman for giving a pro-Soviet Union speech, and then ran as the communist-supported Progressive Party candidate against Truman ran for president in 1948.  The Communist party took control of Wallace's campaign and he won few votes.  By 1952 Wallace publicly repudiated communism and even voted Republican, which caused the Left to ignore him in history books.  Wallace returned to business, where his hybrid corn business was a huge financial success.  Though a major [[New Deal]] spokesman and [[liberal]] leader in 1933–48, but gets no credit from liberals today.

Wallace was born in 1888 on an Iowa farm. He graduated from Iowa State Agricultural College in 1910 with a B.S. degree in animal husbandry in 1910 and worked on the staff of the nation's leading farm magazine, ''Wallace's Farmer'', which had been founded by his grandfather. He was close to his grandfather, "Uncle Henry" Wallace, who taught the youth the superior virtue of agricultural civilization, the fundamental wisdom of Christian morality as a guide for daily living, the inherent good sense and dignity of common folk, and the need for cooperation and understanding among all peoples.  Early in Henry's life, the Wallace family were good friends with [[George Washington Carver]], and Carver made a profound impact on young Henry's views regarding agronomy.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=tVUnAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA176 The Seven Decisions: Understanding the Keys to Personal Success], Andy Andrews</ref><ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=YS6fAAAAIAAJ&q=All+his+life+Henry+Wallace+was+grateful+to+Carver&dq=All+his+life+Henry+Wallace+was+grateful+to+Carver&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwix-_u45_POAhXG5iYKHeycAgEQ6AEIHDAA Century's Ebb: The Thirteenth Chronicle]</ref>

Working independently Wallace made some major contributions to statistics and agronomy, including an innovative use of multiple correlations correlations explaining levels for hogs. He experimented with various strains of corn and produced the first hybrid corn suitable for commercial use. In 1926, Wallace established the Hi-Bred Corn Company, which pioneered an important new industry and in time provided him with substantial financial returns.
