NO HOPE OF EARLY RELIEF FROM BUSINESS DEPRESSION SAYS THE RESERVE BOARD Manufacturing Activities Continued To Fall Off During Month Of November Washington.—No hope of early re¬ lief from business depression is held out in the monthly statement of the federal reserve board, just made pub lie. Depression exists in most communi¬ ties, the statement says, and one of the basic causes, so far as the board can determine, is a “consumers’ strike”—an evident public determina¬ tion “to wait for prices to come down.” Manufacturing activities continued to fall off during November, the hoard says. A wave of "reduction sales" by retailers has not, it adds, resulted in increased buying which would cause a resumption of production in many linese. A “corresponding” decline in tin “buying power” is reflected In the decreased volume of all kinds, says the board.

Teat, national officer of the Brotherhood of Railway Fire¬ men and Trainmen, and president of the Kennesaw lodge No. 247, issued a statement in which he blames the commission for the death of Engineer Julius E. Boston, who was at the throttle of the train, and for the in¬ juries sustained by Fireman John Hardy and J J. Hollingsworth, a rail¬ way mail clerk. “I think it is a dis¬ grace and shame for the Georgia rail¬ road commission to allow the tonnage of engines now being permitted to run over the W. & A. road,” he said, “con¬ sidering the condition of the curves and cross ties.
