RUSSELL RESIGNS
SECRETARY JOB
To Quit the Alameda Chamber OF
Commerce Because of Fac
tiOnaI Opposition

ALAMEDA. Nov. 29.-Ralph A. Rus
sell has severed his relations with the
Alameda chamber of commerce, of
which he has been secretary since it's
organization. In a written applica-
tion to the directors of the chamber
Russell asked for four months leave
of absence and explained that it vir-
tually meant his retirement.
His request for a leave of absence
was granted at a special meeting of the
directorate tonight and arrangements
made to secure young woman to fill
the position of secretary.
Russells withdrawal from the cham
ber of commerce is the outgrowth OF
factional dissensions in the organiza-
ton. One faction was for Russell
another faction was against him and
desired his removal The dissensions
were due to the action taken by a ma
jority of the directors in expelling
Alexander Mackie from the directorate,
to the attitude of the president and
some of the directors in agitating the
calling of an election to annex Fruit
vale, when Mayor William Fl. Noy and
members of the city council were op-
posed to taking such action in the face
of the fact that Oakland had already
called an election for the same pur-
pose, and to the numerous chickering's
between the city council and the direc-
torate of the chamber.
Russell has been secretary of the
chamber of commerce since its parent
organization, the Alameda real estate
exchange, was formed nearly three
years ago. The real estate exchange
was evolved into the Fifty Thousand
club and from the latter sprang the
chamber of commerce.
