Chamber, Washington. D. c.:
NV Dear Senator-We are Informed
that it is the purpose of the Industrial
commission. which has been taking
testimony for a period of several
months regarding Industrial corpora
tions. to make a preliminary report at
an early day TO congress, which VIII
probably serve as a text for discussion
there.
's<- seems very important that tuis
report should be wisely and conserva-
lively shaped. Representative John j.
Gardner of Atlantic City, n. j.. is a
member of that commission. and we
think il very desirable indeed that you
should have a word with him on the
subject. We have no doubt from what
1--WE know of him, and coming from the
locality he does. that he will treat the
subject tudiciously and sensibly, but 1
say it seems very desirable to be as
sure as possible.
Trusting you can find an opportuni-
ty of speaking with him on the sub
iect. and with kind degar6s. 1 am,
| @y-rt1x-
JOHN D. ARCHBOLD."
Would Be Glad to See Gardner.

see him at any time, as suggested.
Very truly yours,
JOHN D. ARCHBOLD."
