DELEGATE
GETS BIG HONOR
Annual Conference on. Weights and
Measures Creates ONCE for {
; Omaha City oficiaL

scenes ever witnessed on sseonveution
door in Washington was enacted yes

attended q conference OF the body.
1t was IN the last minutes of the
session and several hours after tho
annual election OF officers had closed
when the conference created the ONCE
OF sergeant-st-arms, and then. by a
rising, unanimous vote. elected Dele
gate Pegg, city sealer OF weights and
measures OF Omaha. Nebr.. TO the new
made position.
An element OF facetlousness preceded
the unique action. but the creation of
the office and the election OF Pegg was
enacted with all the dignity which
usually accompanies such procedure.
After the election Pegs made a 'clev-
er speech OF appreciatEons He was
cheered and Congratulated by the dele
gates, among whom he has won favor
since his remarkable record of six
years service as city sealer of Omaha
was made known Pegg appeared at
the conference armed With oficial Gre
dentials from the governor OF Nebras-
ka, almost covered with blue silk rib
bon and gold seals. So far as is
known he Is the first co1ored delegate
who has attended the annual confer
ences.
DIR. StrattOn Reelected.
DR.. S. w Stratton, director of the
Bureau of Standards, who has served
seven terms rs head of the conference,

quest that Congress speedily enact legis-
latiOn requiring the marking Of the con-

The conference voted to increase its |
annual meeting from two to four days, |
