but there was much uncertainty over WHO
would be chosen.
Cincinnati. Fort Worth. Texas and Den
yer are anxious to have the next con-
vention, and il seemed probable this
morning that Cincinnati would be chosen.
The morning session of the convention
was taken up with a discussion of the ad-
visibility of continuing manufacturers
exhibits at the convention in the future
and the question of increasing the per
capita tax on the members OF the organi-
Zation. Some of the manufacturers who
have had exhibits at the present conven-
ton complained that Ii was not worth
their time. 1t was finally decided that
the question of exhibits will he left to the
manufacturers themselves.
The delegates to the convention held
their annual banquet at the National iu-
tel last night. Ii is probable that at fu
ture conventions banquets and other en-
tertainment features will be eliminated
because of the time taken from the ac-
tual business work.

SERVICES FOR D. Of c.
PRACTICALLY AT END
Gen. Johnston Leaves for
Thousand Islands to
Spend Summer.

Gen. John A Johnston yesterday prac-
tically terminated his services as a Dis
trict of Columbia Commissioner when he
departed for Thousand Islands, where he
has summer home. He proba IDLY viii.
not return to Washington before fall and
by that time, there is little doubt, new
board of Commissioners will have been
sworn In.
Commissioner Johnston was appointed
in January, 1910. He was not a candi-
date for reappointment, although his adj
ministration of the affairs of the police,
fire and health Observation-Disclosures of
the local government, which are under
his special jurisdiction-has been one that
has reflected credit on the District gov
eminent generally.
Asked to Be Relieved.
Commissioners Rudolph and Harding
and officials and employees Of the Dis
trict generally today expressed regret
over Commissioner Johnston's departure.
That official, sought to be relieved from
continued at his post at the request of
President Wilson. 1t is expected that
when he returns to the capital it will be
as private citizen.
Daily board sessions may be held by
the new Commissioners to be named by
the President. Under the present ar
rangement the District heads have no
regular time for meeting. In line with
the Presidents desire to establish a
model government in the District of
Columbia one of the first steps to be
taken, it is believed. will be directed
toward bringing aobut closer co-opera-
ton between the Commissioners in the
management of the affairs Of the. sew
eral departments under their jurisdic-
ton.
A few years ago the Commissioners
decided to hold weekly board sessions.
but the practice, after short trial.
was abandoned. It is now suggested
that the District heads should meet
daily, and that all matters not disposed
Of should be considered at subsequent
meetings as unfinished business
