A largely y-attended meeting of the Labor
| Bureau was held in The Times building
| last evening, Mr.. N. C. sprague In the chair.
The committee on rules suggested that
| as the question of the establishment Of
the bureau must be referred back TO the
local assemblies for Endorsement it would
be better to await their action before
formulating rules and regulations. This
suggestion was acquiesed in and the com
mittee continued
The committee on site and building re-
ported that they had found a building
centrally located, which in their opinion
would suit the requirements. 1t was large
enough to accommodate all the local bodies
as place of meeting, and with some little
alterations and improvement could be
made suitable for the Bureau and Work
ingman's Library.
The building, they were informed, could
be either leased or purchased. 1t was
calculated that 1t would be much better for
the localsto combine and rent this building as
the rental would not amount to as much as
the locals are now paying in the aggregate.
If this were done the Bureau and Library
Hall would, practically. be obtained free OF
rent. 1t is understood that the building can
be bought at 4 low figure.
In case the local organizations decide to
secure this building the committee suggests
that a fair be given for, IN this way, quite
6 large amount OF money could be raised.

were assured that all the books needed could
be gotten free of cost and also that large
number OF magazines and trades journals

full report OF progress to the meeting of
