 FIGHT FARMERS BATTLE
By Associated Press

Kansas City, Mo. December 10-Or- ganization of every agricultural com muuuy in the nation on an extensive scale to fight the farmers battles and to obtain "economc justice" for the pro- oucers of the country's foodstuffs. was urged by speakers today at the inter- national farm congress here
 Uranimity for organization developed but leaders declared that no special priv ilege was sought by farming interests. They made it plain that such organza- tion had not been their creed and was suggested now only as a measure to gain relief from "intolerabe economic sit uation" brought about by low prices for farm products.
 Regardless of form or title, speakers urged organizations which would have their roots in townships and extend through counties and states to the na- tions capital.
 Leaders of state farm organizations told of the scope of benefit of their bureaus. pr. H. c. Taylor. director of farm management and economies of the department of agriculture, told the con- gress that Secretary of Agriculture Mer- edith would welcome a united voice on a united aim of agriculture.

 What passed during their talk of sev- eral hours was not revealed, for after wards Mir, Harding maintained silence and MT.

RELIEF FUNDS ARE
 M|SAPPROPR|ATED Money Sent to Germany for Miners In Ruhr Used for
 Other Purposes
By Associated Press

Paris, December 10.--Large sums of money turned over to Germany by France for the purpose of ameliorating the material situation of miners in the Ruhr district has been misappropriated by the Berlin government, it was found at a meeting of the committee of for eign affairs of the French Parliament yesterday, says the Matin.
 Premier Leygues is said to have de- clared that Germany was not fulfilling her engagements toward France, re- marking that the French budget of 1921 provides for advances on the account of Germany amounting to sixteen bil- lion francs.
 The French premier has explained the situation to Premier Lloyd George. who has admitted the justice of his con clusion, it is said.
 Premier Leygues informed the com mittee that another Franco British con- ference would be held in two or three weeks.
 Reports received late in November stated that most of the 0.000, 900 francs in gold paid each month to Ger many by France under the Spa coal agreement since last July had been diverted to the purposes of propa ganda and for payments of British creditors of Germany.
