Report of Magazine Committee.

Something of sensation in the morn
ing session was -caused by the report
of the magazire committee, Mrs. Ellen
Spencer Mussey, chairman, because that
report outlined clearly the finances of
the American Magazine. the official or
gan of the D. A. r., showing that it has
cost the society grand total Of S114-
1868 in the eighteen years it has been
published while the receipts have ag-
gregated only SJO,553.26. In calling at
tention to this great loss. amounting to
$64, 2234.91, Mrs. Mussey said efforts had
been made along every conceivable line
to increase the revenue. both by getting
subscriptions and by securing advertise
ing, but none of the work was productive
of appreeiable results, and the loss in
the year ended March 81, 1910 totaling
Sc. 131.67, was the largest in the history
of the publication.
Mrs Mussey stated that she had fol-
lowed the instructions of the magazine
committee in visiting and corresponding
with several of the largest publishing
houses in the country with the result
that she was able to repor, that a con-
tract could be made to secure the publ
cation of the magazine without increas-
ing the subscription beyond the present
price, 81 year. The d. A. r. would
have the same editorial work and SUI
pervision as at present. but the printing
and binding would be done by the pub
lishers

that such an episode should be made I'M

two or three of the states have to sit
in the galleries, where they can neither

solicitude on the part of the national
society, as it is difficult to handle
such q large legislative body. The Daugh-
tiers do not believe in taxation without
representation, hence each chapter of the

sentation through the chapter regent
Every chapter with membership of fifty
is entitled to a delegate in addition, and
as some of the chapters that of Buffalo.

others, have membership of several hum

Add to this the votes of the state regents
and the national officers and the repre-
sentation piles up absurdly large-nearly
three times as large now as the repre-
sentation in the Congress of the United
States. which has 90.OOOOoO people back

Power of District Chapters.
<hhoeuci matter OF grave concern to the
national body is the concentration of
power in the District of Columbia. 1t
takes only ten members to form a chap
ter. The number of chapters in the Dis
trict of Columbia is constantly increas-
ing. and so, therefore. is the number of
delegates who represent purely local in
terests. One national officer declares that
the only remedy is to make the rate OF
membership higher for the creating of
new chapters. and also to make the
united memberships OF various chapters
of such a proportion that the delegates
to the congress can be kept within rea-
sonable limits. This year there are pres
ent over one thousand delegates, and if
the organizations increases next year as
this IL will soon mount beyond the ca
pacity OF the hall, galleries and all. This
must be undertaken sooner or
later, and many OF the members are in
tavor of taking the initiative at once.
The District D. A. r., the national dele
gates complain. have desire to dominate
snd being on the ground they
are able to muster every delegate and al
ternate, every regent and vice regent,
giving the District D. A.. r. ire
power in the congress. A great

campaign of patriotic education Of chill

reported on the progress that had been
made by the .. A. r. campaign against
the dissertation of the American flag.
Mrs. j. NJ. Dickinson. chairman of the
committee to prevent dissertation of the

subject, showing the progress Of the
work throughout the country. The con-
yention later was addressed by Gov. Noel
