WHY THE DECLINE IN
 CHURCH ATTENDANCE
Question Discussed By the United Presbyterian General
 Assembly.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

SEATTLE, May 27.-The United Presbyterian General assembly dis cussed tonight the report Of Henry Wallace of Des Moines, chairman of the standing committee on all churches. who finds that farmers gen erally do not attend church but may be induced to do so. The report points out that there is little differ ence in the rural status of any of the denominations. It says the Catholics held their own in the open court Country towns are no better with the United Presbyterians.
 The decline is accounted for by economic causes that have led to Il falling off in the agricultural popu- lation and is not due to the decline of religious fervor. The report con cludes:
 ITO reach this unchurched popu- lation the gospel must be preached in terms of farm life. The man on the farm cannot be reached by the gospel of negations. He cannot be touched by a man saturated with the higher criticism so-called nor with the gos- pei of ifs and ans and buts"
