THE REAL ESTATE BOARD

Dunlap Smiths election to the Prsi.
dency of the Chicago Real Estate
BOARD affords an opportunity to con.
graduate that influential body of loyal
citizens. both upon their choice of u
wldc.awakc and talented young man
to preside over It's councils and upon the
EOtablc work II has accomplished dur
Ing the last year for the public good Of
this community.
The spirited campaign by which Mr..
Smith was selected on short notice gives
promise of an active administration.
II II we'll for Chicago. no less than for
the board. that able hands have been
found to take up the Important work In
which that body II engaged. President
Fishburn's year In office has seen the
inception of some very important ~.
form movements affecting the whole
city ana In some eases the whole State.
From the spirited campaign resulting
IN the decisive defeat of the County
Court House bond grab at the last cleo.
ton, to the vigorous pushing Of the
Terrence lan,lrcgistry reform In the
Legislature. the whole field of the
boards activities has been Of wide i'm
port. And the citizens Of Chicago an,l
members of the board alike may rest
assured that the grave measures now
pending will not suffer under the I'D.
mlnlstrutlOn Of Its new President.
Among the important measures To
which Mcssrs. Smith, Moore, Calrn'
dun. Green and their fellow officers fall
heir are the Terrence bill and the Spe
clal Assessment Reform bill now IN
preparation. Scarcely less important
IL the proposed change In the regular
assessment system. which will M
brought before the present session ol
the Legislature. The board can als'
have u marked Influence on behalf OI
the city civil service reform movement
which indirectly bears most vitality NJ
Oh all Chicago interests.
That these measures, and especially
the reform In special assessments. vii
be pushed with all the generous vigol
~ the past Is practically assured. Thu
Real Estate Board. with Its 2l5 mcm
hers, 100 agents ana 55 associates, ever
III the late duh times. has presented ~
extraordinary amount of activity Il
the square man. Witness the one fac
that the board now has ON file no les
than S.917 reports of various kinds, %
which 1Do were added during the las
year. The board has unobtruslvel!
made itself one of the most potent IN
ilucnccs for good In Chicago. and IT.
friends are confidently looking forwar'
to another year of activity that vii
