FUND IS SOUGHT
FOR GEORGIA At
CANAL FAIR
Campaign To Be Inaugurated for
Representation Of State at
Panama Exposition.

A campaign to raise funds for the
establishment OF a Georgia state ex-
hibit at the Panama Exposition will
be inaugurated shortly when Com
missioner Frank G. Hoge, of the ex-
position. arrives in Atlanta to confer
with officials Of the Chamber of Com
merce.
Owing to the fact that the Georgia
Legislature, under the Constitution,
has not the power to vote an appro-
priation for such exhibits, the fund
will have to be raised by popular
subscription. Charles J. Haden,
president OF the chamber, asked the
aid Of the exposition officials to raise
this subscription, and Mr.. Hoge has
been assigned to come to Atlanta for
this purpose.
Prospects Are Glowing.
George Hough Perry, director of the
exposition. in a letter to Mr.. Haden,
wrote glowingly Of the preparations
which are being made on the grounds
by other States, and expressed the
hope that Georgia will be represented.
eve sincerely hope that some
movement may be started in Georgia
to bring about its participation in
the exposition" writes Mr.. Perry. so
far q States have arranged to take
part and legislative appropriations
ranging from $4,000 in North Dakota
to 100000 in New York have been
made. Other Legislatures will APP
propriate. and in most of those States
where Legislatures failed to appro-
pirate movements have started to
raise funds by other means.
$4,000 to Exhibit.
I'VE have so far secured the par
ticipation of q foreign Governments.
The fourteen exhibit palaces are now
in the course OF construction. The
director of exhibits reports that there
will be so, 600 individual exhibitors
represented in these palaces. The di-
rector Of concessions reports that the
investment on the part of concession
aries in amusement features Will
reach sum total of $4,000, 600.
Were committee from Georgia
to visit San Francisco and investi-
gate the matter we are quite satisfied
that they would report back that the
exposition which will be held here in
1915 will surpass in every way any
