Appointment oi committees to devise plans for the cooperative marketing ot grain an4 livestock was determined upon at tbe final session today of the American Farm Bureau federation. The live stock proposal - was unanimously approved when the association's com mittee on that Industry recommend ed it. The action came a few hours after the plan ot the grain commit tee had been received favorably cy a majority of the convention. The grain committee, which will be appointed soon by J. R- Howard, president ' of the federation j will be a ' permanent body with headquar ters In Chicago. It will investtcatn existing plans of cooperative market ing as well as suggest new plana. Members of the committee will com prise leading grain producers, ?rain elevator men and others. A resolution was adopted dlrectln that efforts be made by the farm bureau to obtain cars to move crops. It also was recommended that frelrnt problems be referred to the federa tion to obtain uniform rates and eqnal facilities for all farmers. The federal trade commission was congratulated tor "Us substantial work In the east" and the support of the federstion was pledged. An other resolution indorsed deep water way projects. . Efforts of the federation to obtain freight cars were reported by Mr. Howard. "In January the federation sent a delegation to Washington to learn whether we could obtain nio.-e cars." he said. "We were advl3ed that there existed a shortage or ap proximately 1OO.00Q cars and 'Vat about 1 20.000 more noeded repair.
