tine delegation, which left the assembly
ostensibly because it had not been able
to get consideration for its proposition

then demand either by representative
of the officers of the league assembly
or some delegate take the floor to point
out that the Argentine delegation left

ed.
MIR. London had been discussing
Socialism for an hour before the dis
order began. He was loudly ap-
plauded.
Suddenly, however, he began to

CHARGES CONSPIRACY TO DRIVE
DOWN PRICE OF FARM PRODUCTS

the federal reserve system now is
controlled by the big predatory fl
nancial interests" said Mr.. Marsh.
"tThe financial interests %, 900
persons out of our 105,000,000 are,
as determined to crush the farmers
as they are to cruch labor.
'"To meet the present situation
some organization like the United
States Grain corporation should be
organized. but it must be controlled
by representatives Of organized
farm and not by organized labor,
women's organizations, and of the
unorganized public elevator combine
or millers' trust. 1t would pay
wheat growers the bulk line cost of
production and control wheat pro-
