1898, the league hada membership of sew
enty-tWo cities; since then fifty-seven Cit
les had been added to membership. The
bureau received during the year 7S2 spe-
cial letters of inquiry relative to muntc-
ipal affairs. Not having a skilled archl-
tect7 and an expert civil engineer, the
bureau was unable to provide all the In
formation called for in some cases. The
secretary recommended that consulting
engineer be retained by The league. when
the revenue of the organization shall be
sufficient to meet such expense. The Fec
rotary had received on account of mem
bership fees since the date of his last re-
port s., $40, 81, $50 of which was remttted to
the treasurer, balance of 1920 now Re
ing in the secretary's hands. There was
