Messrs. Wallace, Diss and Scott were

At the afternoon session the follow

in regard to the division OF the profit:
Resolved, That within two days after
the close of the fair every locality shall
be expected to present to the executive
committee an itemized account OF the
expense to which it has been put in
connection with its display, said ac-
count to be accompanied in all cases by
the receipted bills. All accounts pre-
sented according to these requirements
shall constitute liens on the profits of
the fair, if any exist, to be paid under
the following conditions:
Fifty per cent. OF the net profits, after
all general expenses OF the fair are paid,
shall go to the chamber OF commerce,
that organization having agreed to
raise in guarantee fund of $2500 and
to loan the association the machinery of
the office for conducting the fair, to be
used during the ensuing year in i'm
proving, increasing and caring for the
general exhibit of Southern California
products in its exhibit hall, according
to such methods as the executive COM
mittee OF the citrus fair association may
outline to the board OF directors of the
chamber; the remaining 30 per cent
of the profits shall be used to pay the
just claims of the localities as herein
before described, if the sum is sufficient;
if it ia insufficient, payment shall be
made in proportion to the claim. If,
after paving all just claims, any
residue remains it shall be disposed of
as the executive committee may decide.
The date OF holding the fair was taken
up. 1t was decided to open on the ID
day of March. John Scott opposed this
date, claiming that it was too late in
the season by at least two weeks. He
asserted that citrus fruit would mature
much earlier this year on account OF the
shaking up by the recent wind storm.
The executive committee was delegated
to change the date if deemed expedicnt.
The executive committee was also given
power to appoint the judges, subject to
the confirmation of the general associa
ton.
