BOARD OF TRADE MEETING.
Amendment of Bylaws to Be Con
sidered Next Friday.

The Washington Board of Trade will
hold a meeting Friday evening. June 80,
at $ O'Clock In the New Willard Hotel
Many matters of Importance are to be
discussed. including three proposed
amendments to the constitution and by
laws of the board.
One OF these amendments reads as fol-
lows:
mo member shall be eligible as an of
ficer or director who is an officer or
director of any other organization of citi-
zens the object of which may be the con-
sideration and action upon any general
interests Of the District of Columbia as a
whole"
The amendment is aimed to prevent the
election of officers and directors who are
also officers or directors of the Chambe
of Commerce, and will probably raise con-
siderable discussion. 1t is said that the
proposed amendment grew out Of the re-
cent fight made to merge the two bodies.
The other amendments propose to make
past presidents of the board additional
members of the board of directors, as
long as they are active or honorary MEM
bers of the board, and propose TO repeal
that section which provides that no men,
Der shall be eligible for election as a
director for more than two consecutive
terms.
Recommendations Of committees will be
taken up also and considered.
