Argument of President Droop.


President E. III. Droop pointed out that
the constitution of the Board of Trade
specifically provided that the board was
to advance the material side" Of Wash
ington, and therefore it was proper to
continue the industrial interests commit
tee. Mr.. Porter said that as long as his
committee had adopted the resolution for
it's adjustment he was ready, if the
board approved, to submit the matter to
the Board of Trade in an amendment to
the bylaws.
Walter A. Brown declared that he did
not believe it wise to do away with the
committee, and moved to lay Mr.. Porter's
resolution on the table. Theodore w.
Noyes pointed out that it was not the
function of the board of directors to
pass upon proposed amendments to the
constitution and bylaws; that to do so
was to usurp the power of the board
itself The difficulty was finally obviated
by Mr.. Porter Withdrawing his resolu-
ton,

TRAFFIC REGULATIONS U

A proposition to amend the bylaws of
the Board of Trade so that the commit
tee on industrial interests would be done
away with and such questions as had
been passed upon by that committee
should be referred to the Chamber of
Commerce and Retail Merchants Asso-
citation was submitted to the board Of di-
rectors by ID. S. Porter, chairman Of the
industrial interests committee, yesterday
afternoon. Although there was apparent
ly strong sentiment against such a move,
no action was taken by the board in the
matter, and Mr.. Porter finally withdrew
his resolution, which, he said, had been
adopted last October by his committee.
In support Of his resolution, Mr.. Porter
said that during the discussion of a merg-
err with the Chamber of Commerce it
had been argued that the Board of Trade
was a civic. not trade, organization,
and that the proper field of the Chamber
OF Commerce was the commercial devel-
opment of Washington. His committee.
he said, with this in mind, had framed
the resolution to do away with the in
dustrial interests committee. He had
been in favor Of a merger Of the two
bodies at the time that matter was up,
he said, but he did not favor such a prop
OsitiOn now.

Meeting in New Quarters.

The meeting of the board of directors
was held for the first time in the newly
furnished and enlarged quarters or the
Board of Trade. BY knocking out par
tition and adding another room to the as
sembly room a large and light meeting
place has been provided. With the money
appropriated by the directorate for re-
fitting the rooms handsome plush ORA
peries have been provided for the WIN
doWs and a handsome new rug. New
chairs have been added and other i'm
provementS made.
President Droop took up the matter or
the new traffic regulations, which have
been prepared for Washington by the
District Commissioners and Maj. Syl-
vester and which are to go into effect
February 1. He said that the special
committee of the boarc dealing with this
subject, headed by Leroy Mark, desired
hearing by the Commissioners before
the regulations went into effect, and it
was decided to request such hearing.
Mr.. Droop pointed out that the new reg
ulations were much longer. than those
used in New York. and that they had
been much criticised. He recommended
that w. p. Emo, a member of the board
and an expert on street traffic. be asked
to draft a report for the board on these
regulations. Mr.. Emo framed the present
regulations used in New York and had
much to do with reframing the regula-
tions Of London and Paris.

One BROOD sow
BRING In OVER $500

Welborn Beeson has a Chester
White brood SOW who has produced
29 pigs in ten days less than one
year. On September 10, 1912, she
had a litter of which ten lived and
grew up. In March last she pro-
duced another litter of ten, and
August 29 she produced nine more
lusty young porkers who bid fair to
bring good money.
This one SOW has altogether pro-
duced for Mr.. Beeson about 600 pigs
which he has sold at various ages,
sizes and prices, bringing in over
5000.
Mr.. Beeson says that there is good
money in the hog business. He has
twelve brood sows, Chester White
and Duroc and cross bred, which will
bring him about 100 fall pigs. He
says that with care and attention
pigs are as profitable crop as it is
possible to raise. -
