KNOTTY LEGAL POINT
Chamber of Commerce Status
Not Yet Determined.
TO GO BEFORE FULL BODY
Question Whether Organization Is
Incorporated Discussed by
Board of Directors.

The Chamber Of Commerce is stin try
ing to find out whether or not II 10 In
corporated. Just when the directors
thought they had solved the problem In
a committee report brought in last night
declaring that the chamber is, and has
been from its beginning corporate body.
Attorney Percival M. Brown refused to
indorse the conclusions OF the committee
and upset all prospect OF an agreement
AS q result, the directors have decided
to pass the question on to full meeting
Of the chamber for q decision.
In the report submitted by A. Left
wich Sinclair. chairman OF the law and
legislation committee. and Eugene A.
Jones. chairman Of the special suboon-
mittee to consider the matter. 1t was
stated that the chamber. at the time OF
its organization, had complied with all the
requirements OF the law in order to en-
able 1t to become incorporated, and as
q result OF that compliance. whether II
was done Intentionally or not, Is, and
has been from the date OF its organiza-
ton, an incorporated body.
This view, apparently. was going TO
meet with general satisfaction on the
part of the directors until Mr.. Brown
asserted that the chamber, at the time Of
organizing. had no intention Of becoming
Incorporated, and, without such intention,
could not have become an incorporation
through the mere fact Of complying with
the law.
Will Go Before Full Body.
Mr.. Browns point appeared to be SO
we'll taken that the directors decided to
refer the matter to the entire membership
Of the chamber. and ordered that 1t be
brought up at the next meeting.
Last nights attempt by the directors to
Incorporated marked another time that
the problem has been up without being
disposed of. as the directors have been
wrestling with 1t for several months, but
have been unable to reach a decision on
account Of conflicting legal opinion.
Southern Markets.
q. 0rosYenor DAVE. managing director
Of the Southern Commercial Congress, and
DR.. Clarence ]. Jones, commissioner OF
education Of the congress. addressed the
directors last night in regard to the need
Of Washington realizing her trade op-
portunities in the south. II. c. c. Stiles
declared that local business men have
failed to make use Of such opportunities
But few reports were received by the
directors. Isaac Cans reported that eight
applications for membership had beer
acted upon and Treasurer A. Lisner that
there is q balance Of 1888 In the treas.
ury.
The excursion committee asked that q
George J. Judd, for his successful man
agement Of the recent trip to Norfolk and
New York. and this the directors did
unanimously.

MEMORIAL RESOLUTIONS

Hall of River Falls Lodge, No. 1891 1. o. o. f.
February 10, 1911.
The Great Master has, in the exercise of an
inscrutable Providence seen fit to remove
from our earthly Lodge to the Mansions above,
our esteemed brother, Calvin Randall Morse,
while yet in the apparent enjoyment of good
bodily health and in the prime of life. Unable
to comprehend the mystery of this blow, we
bow thereto in sorrowful and humble submis-
sion.
Brother Morse has been an esteemed and
faithful brother of our order for more than
thirty-nine years, and in our intercourse with
him in the varied scenes of life, we have found
him as citizen, loyal and patriotic, as friend,
kindly and faithful, and as brother, ever true
to the principles of our Order, in Friendship,
Love, and Truth.
We extend our heartfelt sympathies to his
aged mother bereft of her only son, to his sis
ter mourning the death of kind brother and
to his son meeting loss which is irreparable.
AS token of respect to the memory of our
departed brother, it is
RESOLVED, That our charter be draped for
thirty days and that copy of this memorial be
transmitted to the family of the deceased and
to the local papers for publication.
