RETAIL MERCHANTS
SEP ARATED FROM
COMMERCECHAMBER
Resolution Read At Meeting
BY President Joseph
Strasburger.

The Retail Merchants ASSOCIATE ton
is no longer connected with the
Chamber Of Commerce. Its declaration
OF independence was read by President
Joseph Strasburgher to the directors Of
the Chamber at their monthly meeting
last night, and was accepted with ex-
pressions OF regret. The work of re-
organizing the association will now be
commenced.
The resolution OF the association to
separate as a body and not as indi-
viduals' from the Chamber was read
BY Mr.. Strasburger, who asked that a
committee Of five be appointed to con-
Ter with similar committee of the
association to adjust relations between
the two bodies. 1t was suggested that
all civic matters be left to the Chamber,
and all matters relating to the interests
of the merchants be referred by the
Chamber TO the association. The asso-
ciatton may continue to use the Cham
ber,s rooms as its headquarters.
The executive committee Of the Cham
Der Will deal with the request made by
the promoters of a permanent world 8
1air for an appropriation of 800 toward
their expenses. II. X. Bush-Brown, r.
Woodall, and Charles F. Johnson ad-
dressed the directors in behalf of the
project, and asked the Chambers co.

Upon recommendation Of John Dolph

an appropriation was made for a

lecturer, would be permitted to testify

cution in the Darrow trial against his
former friend, Job Hartman, was to

Cantrell has testified before the
grand jury that Hartman had said to
him In San Luis Obispo the morning
after the destruction of the Times,

he had known of plans to destroy the
newspaper plant. The prosecution
sought to prevent this evidence of Can
trell to impeach Hartman, who had
sworn he did not make such state
ments, declaring Cantrell was his Bit
terest enemy and had sworn to put
him behind the bars.
The defense had pleaded this was COL

The committee has been voted ,OOC
