WANTS APPROPRIATIONS
FOR CONVENTIONS HERE
Chamber of Commerce Would
Like to Have Congress
Set Aside $25, 900.

Congress will be asked to appropriate
SOS, 600 to aid in entertaining delegates to
conventions which assemble IN Wasning-
ton. provided the District Commissioners
approve the plan adopted by the board
of directors OF the Chamber OF Commerce
at its meeting yesterday afternoon. A
committee consisting OF william F. GUIDE.
Charles ]. Bell and Capt. James F. Oys-
ter was appointed to lay before the Com
mfssioners the matter Of asking this ap-
preparation.
The plan was suggested by Granville
Hunt, chairman Of the conventions COM
mittee Of the chamber. in his report to
the board of directors. Mr.. Hunt took
the ground that not only should the citi-
gems help pay for the entertainment of
these conventions, which benefit the city
greatly. but the government should be
willing to help contribute to the enter
tainment of the distinguished foreigners
who come to the National Capital to at
tend some of these meetings.
Members Favor Plan.
Members OF the board were heartily in
favor of the plan. D. J. Callahan pointed
to the fact that Providence. r. l.. and
the state Of Rhode Island had each ap-
prorriated $1,000 to aid In the entertain
ment OF the delegates to the deep water
ways convention now meeting In Provf-
dence. Mr. GUIDE said that the citizens OF
Washington had contributed about $4,000
to the entertainment OF the vIennese
singers who visited this city last Sunday.
He said that the members OF the cham
Der had contributed largely to this fund.
''The singers were the guests OF the
entire city, said Mr.. GUIDE. and each
citizen should have helped to pay for
their entertainment. Appropriation by
Congress Is the only manner IN which we
can attain such an object"
AS soon,as Charles J. Bell returns from
his trip TO Europe the COMMITTEES APP
pointed yesterday will take the matter up
with the District Commissioners. The
members OF the board Of directors realise
that senator's and representative: VIII
raise objections to such an APPROPRIATION.
but they are confident that they can
overcome these objections. Many other
cities and municipalities make eppropria-
lions for just such purpose. they say.

She was engaging q little colorcd girl

she was asking IL the little colored girl
could cook. The reply as to the little
colored girls ability to cook was dubious.
Yet the two are going to start out To pro-
vide meals for man who must do u hard
days work To say nothing of their own
needs. Ones pity is aroused for the man.
If the girl were wealthy and able to hire
competent people to manage the home,
che might be excused for complacently
knowing nothing about cooking But She
isn't She and her husband Will live In a
modest, two-story house, and the little
colored girl will be all the help they will
have.
The outlook for peace and prosperity in
that home is not promising. The man must
go to work every day. and work hard. and
If he doesn't get ncurishing food. he Will
not be able 10 do his work right. He VIII
