some farmers will use the Camp

the Southwest as being the logi-

We need have no fear that the
market will be taken up by the
old B Street farmers as soon as
available. It's regrettable the
question of suitable location has
temporarily upset our market

some Of the new market ven

themselves so contrarily to go
against Congress should have
enough sporting blood rot to
howl at failure, even if they
were not sports enough to &C

It's bad enough to have to share
quarters with a King Cobra that
is satisfied with his usual number

but when that reptile d es that
he wants an appetizer men it's a
tough break" for his cage mate.
For several weeks the large
snake at the Zoo, the prize speci-
men in the collection, had been
sharing his quarters with whip
snake about six feet long, and the
pair seemed to be amicable
enough.
Anyway the whip snake is sup
posed to be fast enough to keep
out of the way of any cobra, and
this one managed to do so for a
considerable period. The cobra.
however, sat on the side lines, so
to speak, and eyed the toothsome
morsal of reptile that in spite Of
him managed to keep on the other
side of the cage.
Just what happened yesterday,
is not known, but apparently the
cobra managed to slip up on the
off side of his cagemate and now
said whip snake is repOsing on
the inside of snug looking cobra
who wanted light lunch between

ROME, June S G.N.S0.-A de-
cidedly conciliatory attitude on
the part of the Fascists toward
the Roman Catholic Church was
indicated today by an article in
the semi-official newspaper, Po-
polo D'Italia, dealing with the
conflict over the dissolution Of
Catholic young peoples organiza-
tions. The article, signed by a
brother of Mussolini, said:
"DeplOrabIe exceSseS do not

calling upon the Fascist govern

reply to the Fascist Directorate'S
pronouncement condemning al

organizations.
Meanwhile, the government
pursued it's policy of permitting
youth organizations to resume
operations if their members join.

The Y. M. c. A. branches in
Florence and Lucca were allowed
to reopen, but the Knights of Co.

closed pending solution of the
differences between the Vatican

The Pope held another lengthy
conference today with Monsignor

phases of the Italo.Vatican clash
were discussed in detail.

Pessimism pervaded the Vati,

The church StiA awaited q re.

over recent Fascist outbreaks in
the country, during which
churches, institutions and CathO

charged a breach of the Vatican
treaty of 1929 and the concOrdat
