wisdom to fight, when as much or
more might be obtained by other tao

TRADE TO AID
GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES
Directors to Meet This After.
noon to Discuss the P. B.
Chase Plan.

That the business interests Of Washing
movement originated by p. b. Chase to
improve conditions for government clerks
was shown this morning when Gen.
George H. Harries called a special meet
ing of the directors Of the Board Of
Trade for o'clock this afternoon to dis
cuss the matter
VIII Name Committee.
1t is understood the directors of the
board will at this session nominate ten
members to serve on the committee Of
100. suggested by Mr.. Chase. to collect
and administer fund of 100000 to aid
departmental and District employees.
The Board of Trade ITSELF will meet to-
morrow, and it Is said that at that time
the cooperation of the Organization Will
be formally pledgad to the project.
Similar action is expected on the part
of the Chamber Of Commerce at q meet
ing to be held soon.
To Represent Ohio.
Members of the Ohio delegation in Con-
gress today waited upon Mr.. Chase and
requested that he allow them to present
his name to Gov. Harmon for appoint
ment as delegate from that state on the
committee Of one hundred.
Mr.. Chase. who is resident Of the
Buckeye state, consented, and it is
expected that his selection will be an
nounced just as soon as the Washing
ton trade bodies formally launch the
movement.
The offer OF Charles /. Corby to SUBJ
scribe $1,O0O to the fund and the
numerous letters indicating that other
business men OF this city would lend
financial support to the movement has
encouraged the promoters Of the cru
SADIE.
Discussing the progress of the. cam
paign today, Mr.. Chase said he had
been impressed by the pitiful tone Of
numerous messages sent to him by gov
eminent clerks.

Nearly every letter that I have re-
ceived from persons in the government
service is signed from an old clerk, -
said he. Theres is something radically
wrong when these American citizens are
not allowed to present their claims in the
open.
1T Is pretty generally understood that
clerks ought not to interfere with men,
bers of Congress by pushing their pres
ence upon them and worrying them too
much. but when these clerks are so
scared they will not sign their names to
persons interested In their cause there
must be something wrong.
This committee Of 100 will act for
these clerks who are not allowed to come
out into the open and conduct their
fight, Their claims will be presented to
the people Of the nation and members OF
Congress will be educated to heed the
demands OF public sentiment.
