1T is TROUTMAN
Senator Elected Chairman by
Shawnee Delegation.
Perfected for the
June Harmony Meeting.

Over his protest Senator James A.
Troutman was this afternoon elected
permanent chairman of the Shawnee
county delegation to the harmony con-
ference to be held at Topeka on June 8.
Troutman nominated Robert Stone, fol-
lowing a short speech in which he said
he had spent half his time since the
legislature adjourned working on the
proposed conference and that he ought
to be relieved of part of the work. Fred
A. Voiland, who was acting as tenn
porary chairman, ruled the nomination
out of order as a motion was pending
electing Senator Troutman.
Troutman then nominated Voiland
for secretary and put a motion electing
him by reclamation, which met with
unanimous favor.
Two matters then we're discussed.
Senator Troutman suggested that the
women of the delegation send out an
invitation to the women of the state,
urging them to be on hand for the
conference. He said he believed that
thus the women would be interested in
the work. The plan will be worked out
later, women who were present faVor1ng
it strongly.
The meeting also ordered the appoint
ment of a committee OF seven with
power to handle the entertainment OF
visitors, solicit funds and do all that
is necessary toward ARRANGEMENTS for
the state wide conference. The COM
mittee will be named later.
Short addresses in which the speak,
ers declared a hope that general mar
mony would prevail were made by a
number of those present including Mrs.
Charles F. Spencer, Mrs. Lucia o. Case,
Captain c. H. Titus. Mrs. Margaret
Hill McCarter and Mrs. Lillian Mitch
ner Several of the women declared
they were willing to work. but were
present more to learn than anything
else.
