Meet Tonight to Take
Similar Action.

BY reason OF the action taken at the
special meeting Of the Business Mems
Association last night. the new Wash
ington Chamber of Commerce is now
practically an accomplished fact. With
but one dissenting vote. the resolution
providing for a permanent organization
Of the Washington CHAMBER Of Com
merce was adopted.
It now remains for the Jobbers and
Shippers Association. at its meeting to-
night, at the New Willard. TO take sim
liar action TO complete the definite and
final amalgamation OF the two associa-
tons and bring into actual being the
Washington Chamber II Commerce.
Purpose of Meeting.
After the call to order by President
James f. Oyster. and the reading ct
the minutes of the last meeting By
Secretary William F. Guide, Mr.. Oyster
stated that the purpose Of the meeting
was the consideration OF TIE recon-
mendation Of the board of directors 10
amalgamate with the Jobbers and
Shippers Association. President Oyster,
in explaining the boards recommenda-
tons, reviewed the results obtained by
both associations, showing that while
much good had been accomplished, it
was felt that greater good could have
been and would be accomplished by a
union of the two. The Business Men
Association in taking this action would
sacrifice their identity, officers and
money. but II was conceived by the
board OF directors that the greatest
good for the entire community would
rnaess.u =
cation, and that that was the end to be
sought
The debate on the resolution was
then opened, and was participated in
by a large number of members. Only
two opposed amalgamation. John

Mr.. Albert dwe,t on the Important re-
latiOn Nhe promised Office building and
home would bear 10 the success OF the
new body, and spoke of the many offers
OF assistance made for this project. He
declared that the directors had never
desired to assume any responsibility in
the matter Of details OF organization,
but simply to point out simple plan
for the accomplishment Of the purpose
which they all believed would meet
with the approval Of all the members.
Prominent Visitors interested.
Robert A. Chester assured those pres

contributions to the proposed Chamber
Of Commerce and said that not only
here but elsewhere prominent men had
expressed 10 him the deepest interest
In the movement.
Robert n Harper said that he had
