Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 20 (PD --Machinery created here by tho marketing conference of delegations from eleven middle western states, to present demands for farm relief legislation to congress, was being goared for action today.
 Appointed near the close of yes- terday's conference as the perman- ent machinery of the 12 agricultural states, the agricultural marketing advisory committee, was In session, completing its organization.

Anti i-FOreign Outburst
 By Italian Students

Rome, Jan. 20 F-Several hun dred university students staged an anti-foreign demonstration in the Piazza Colonna under Premier Mussoini's windows in the Chigi palace today.
 The students made bonfres of German, English, Hungarian and other foreign newspapers and shouted protests and threats against the Germans for their all legged anti-Italian agitation in the upper Adige territory, which was awarded Italy after the World war.
 The demonstration, which drew a huge crowd, was finally dispersed by carabineers.
 Similar demonstrations, accom- panied by parades. were staged by students at Florence and Lecoe last night.

nors of three states. and several agricultural experts had reviewed the situation. Each prescribed a remedy, with proponents of tho Dick inson bill, predominating.
 Not until the delegates were pro. pairing to receive report of the reso- lutions committee, and adjourn. was there any indication of disharmony. The greatest stir was created by W. l. Drummond, Kansas City. Mo, chairman of the American farm con gress, who charged that the con ference was not representative Of middle western agriculture and that the resolutions committee was com posed of men who championed par ticuar farm relief bills.
 His charges precipitated heated debate with Mark Woods, Lincoln, Neb., who charged Drummonds att titude was influenced by 'bosses." !" Shouts Of Program! Programi" prevailed as the chairman restored order,
 In refusing to indorse any particu- lar piece of farm relief legislation, the conference adhered to the ad- vice of several speakers who warn ed such action might forestall possi- bility of enactment Of any kind fav- orable to tho farm clause. Action favorng the principles of the Dick ison bill was the only definite ex- pression by the conferences concern ing legislation. It failed to take cognizance of the situation created by the federal farm loan board, placing in effect new regulations for the operation of joint stock land banks. The new regulations, which have resulted in the banks discard ing plans for extending s10.0OO,- 900 credit to Iowa farmers has caus- ed concern among farm leaders here, The matter has called to the attention of President Coolidge by Governor Hammill who asked that the new regulations be modified or discarded.

Pray for Catholics Protection.

ROME, July 3 LR-Pope Plus today
voiced a vigorous protest againstthe
attitude of the Mexican government
toward Roman Catholics in the course
of an address before students of the
Pho Latino Ecclesiastical College Of

for the persecution against Catholics,
which he said is continuing in Mexico.
He declared that he desired to pro-
test once more against violation of
the Catholics right of conscience. He
urged the students. who included rep
resentatives of all Latin American ma
lions, to pray for Divine protection for
those subject to persecution.
