1 the election was over we passed
President
vetoed it, and we failed to get
the necessary two-thirds to pass
it over his veto. After President
Wilson came into office we be-
gan the struggle all over again
to get a vote on the bill but the
work was harder than ever be-
cause the president was against
the bill, and his opposition
scared most of the friends of the
measure into silence. However, 1
; we finally got the biH up and 1
1 passed it. President Wilson 1
I vetoed the bill, and that time
we mustered enough strength ■

66th congress, first session. Con-
gressman Box uses this langu-
age:

placed in the outer chamber of
the Lufkin Chamber of Com-
merce for the explicit purpose
of aiding the farmers of this
section, who have products for
sale. This board will be for
the exclusive use of farmers,
and the service will be absolute,
ly without.cost, and is but one
forward step in helping the
grow-er to make quick sales of
anything and everything grown
on the farm. If the man has a
horse, cow, hog, chiekens, eggs,
butter, garden or field commod-
ities which he would like a
market for, it would take but
little time to list same on this
board, and the chamber of
commerce will take pleasure in
helping to find a buyer. If this
privilege is freely taken advant-
age of, it would soon be the
means of much valuable aid to
the tillers of the soil.
