FARM MEET IN
IOWA OPPOSES
PRES. COOLIDGE
VOTES FLATLY AGAINST HIS
PROPOSAL

Des Moines, Ia, Dec. 31-The clash
between the Coolidge administration
and the farmers was dramatized yes
terday by the unanimous adoption of
the all-Iowa conference of farmers,
banlIc 5 and manufacturers of resolu-
tons fatty opposed to the program OF
Coolidge as sent in telegram from
the White House to the meeting.
The conference adopted a resolution
unanimously favoring the creation OF
an export corporation to stabilize
prices of agricultural products and
dispose of surplus crops.
Repudiate Coolidge by Vote
This followed the reading of a tele-
gram from Coolidge in which he stub
bornly stood by his speech in Chicago
favoring a plan based on what he
calls Sound economic principles" anC
strictly opposed to government price
fixing, whether direct or indirect, OIL
to government buying or selling OF
farm products"
An Illustration of the temper of the
meeting is the bowling down by the
audience of Senator BroOkhart, who
was forced to stop speaking by cries
demanding Program! Programp
Also by the speech which received the
ovation Of the day, given by Charlie;
Duhigg, farmer, o fEmmetsburg, WHIT
asked 10 mission to address the lowe
delegation in congress who were pres
emit In talking to them before the
audience he said:
Sick of Talk
"I Just want to say that we are al
sick if this talk You've talked tn,
farmer near to death in the last three
years. We are watching you fellow
down there in Washington day an,
night and we think it is time yol
Quit this foolishness and got dow
to work for Iowa"
Resolutions told how the farmers
plight was caused by the war, over
production and defation, reducing tn
prices to less than half the cost o
production.
The creation of federal agricul
tural board that shall, in co-operatio
with the department of agriculture
become a direct agency to assist tn
farming industry, is demanded.
