Over 50 local chairmen and nine division chairmen were present.

The meeting convened at 10 o'clock. The decision, which came before the rail meeting yesetrday, was issued following an election conducted by the railroad last June to select representatives of the employes. The labor board decided this election was unfairly conducted and ordered that a new election be held which the management refused to do, according to the tabulation furnished the labor board by the management. The men alleged to have been elected, received the votes of only a small percentage of the employes of the region. I). L. Miller, chairman of the Cental Ohio Division, president at the meeting, assisted by B. C. Miller, chairman of the Indiana division. E. A. Brutcher, of East St. Louis, was selected as secretary. J. D.

U.S. PASSING THROUGH

MOST SEVERE FARM DEPRESSION, WALLACE (By Associated Press) BOSTON, Mass., Dec. 19 The United States is passing through the most severe agriculture depression in its history, Secretary Wallace of the agricultural department declared in an address today before the Boston chamber of commerce. Asserting that prices of major farm crops were lower than at any time in the nation's experience, Secretary Wal

lace predicted that decreased produc

tion would result In prices

that city consumers will complain bitterly, for the farmer cannot continue to produce at a loss." This condition is undermining agriculture, the base of the "pyramid which represents our national life," Mr. Wallace said, adding that the first task of the country was to "bring agriculture through this critical period with the least possible damage." The industrial east, Secretary Wallace declared, may feel the need of a sympathetic and thoroughly efficient agriculture sooner than is realized, since "the billions of dollars which we have loaned to Europe must be paid not In gold but in goods which compete with our own manufactures and which are produced at a cost far below our own."

"IT CAME UPON THE MIDNIGHT CLEAR." Year after year as the quiet, clear nights of the Christmas season approach, the spirits of thousands who have a touch of poetry or Imagination in them are stirred at the con templatlon of the New Testament story of the birth of Jesus. What countless poems have been produced by writers, great and small. One of the finest expressions is by an American, Edmund H. Sears, a Unitarian minister and a poet, who lived in Massachusetts from 1810 to 1876. In December, 1848, he published In a religious journal the poem beginning. "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear." He sent it to a brother clergyman,

who titted it to an old hvmn tune.

an American composer, ' Richard S. Willis, who had been struck with the unusual beauty of the poem, wrote an original setting for it. This met with such favor that it is pactically the only one now in general use. It, moreover, has, because of its Christmas spirit appropriately been given the
