IOWA FARM COUNtJL NOT IN RELIEF DRIVE Ago Active in Protecting Foreclosures, By the Associated Press. LEMARS, Iowa, January 9.—Charles Schultz, a member of the Farmers' Council of Defense, said last night that his organization was not supporting any plan for a movement of farmers of Northwest Iowa to Des Moines to press the Jowa Legislature for immediate farm relief. The council, made up of 10 Towa and Soutn Dakota leaders, was formed two weeks ago and has been active in pro- testing the foreclosure of farm mort- gages. Meanwhile, it appeared tonight as if the proposed motor caravan of Des Moines by approximately 1,000 farmers might be prevented by a shortage of funds to buy food and gasoline. _Some of the farmers said they be- lieved it would be better for them to confine their activities to local districts. Others, however, continued organiz- ing for the- projected march to the Capital when the Legislature convenes. Suicide Balks Police in Home. JAMESTOWN, N.

Yet those who have talked privately with the President-elect know him to be deeply interested in intg national affa Some of his formative schcol- boy days were spent in Europe.

Such a readjustment would be, in fact, a major diplomatic operation and a most complex one if carried out with respect to all of the great powers. Japan, for instance, i she consented to negotiate for continued admit- | tance of her enormous silk surplus into the United States, might have to be asked in return to give up her cam- | paign of aggression in China, and that would be a very delicate subject, indeed. Russia owes the United States a war debt. She wants certain American ma- chinery, and more than all else she wants American recognition.
