EDITORS CONCLUDE
 A GREAT MEETING
ATTENDANCE WAS 400
MEMBERS LAVISHLY ENTER TANNED BY LITTLE ROCK
 PRESS CLUB AND CITIZENS.

Little Rock, May 20.-The forty second annual meeting of the Arkan- sas Press Association concluded a three days session here today. There were about 400 newspaper workers present, and 30 new members were lected. The attendance was larger than ever before, and there was a greater proportion of wives and daughters than usual The members of the association were most bounti- fully and lavishly entertained by the title Rock Press Club and the citizens, and the three days were filled with receptions, entertainments, luncheon and sightseeing, interspersed with some necessary business sessions. The following officers were elected :
 President, V. A. Beeson, Morrilton
 Headlight; vice presidents, Claude Mann of the Malvern Times-J Journal, C. A. Berry of the Huttig News, and T. l.. Pound of the Danville Demo crat Ed McCorkle of the Star of Hope.
 There is an interesting contest on
 for the next meeting place of the con- ventlon the invitations having been extended by Harrison and Pine Bluff, and the indications are that Harrison will win out. It is planned that the last day and night of the convention will be passed at Eureka Springs. After a spirited discussion Tuesday | afternoon, a resolution was adopted to the effect that it is the sense of the association that the subscription price of weeklies should be advanced from $1 to $1.50 per year. This was not in anywise binding upon the publish CTS, and many expressed themselves as opposed to it, although the major ! ity considered that the increased cost of raw material and the higher cost of all commodities should justify an ad- vance in the subscription price of the newspapers.
 Among the distinguished visitors present from outside the state were Wright A. Patterson of Chicago, ed itor- of the Western Newspa- per Union, who discussed Newspaper Problems" in their application espe- cially to the country weekly; James H. Holt of Memphis also read an able paper on the same subject; w. M
 Ledbetter, managing editor of the St
 Louis Republic, addressed the conven- tion, and Col. Mike Connolly, editor of the Memphis News Scimitar.
 The programs were filled with ex- cellent addresses on matters appeal
 ing directly to the interests of the
 newspaper fraternity It will be fol-
 lowed by the annual excursion
 through northeast Arkansas, spend
 ing Friday night at Jonesboro, return
 ing to Little Rock Saturday night.

came in for lively discussion in the
house OF commons yesterday. Right
Honorable Reginald McKenna in a
stirring speech against the methods

that the government will be successful
in securing sufficient evidence to en-
able the bringing of SUIT against sub

of the damage already done under the
direction of that organization.
Lord Robert Cecil said that the
present situation in England is moth

only real remedy is deportation OF the
offenders -
McKenna concluded by saying that
the ''let them die policy now being
urged by those who would curb the
suffragettes will not work.

CHAMBER ASKED
To- AID IN WAR.
ON BILLBOARDS

Through the medium of a communi-
cation to the Chamber of Commerce
of Honolulu, which was read at the
meeting of that organization Wednes-
day afternoon, the Outdoor Circle
makes a further appeal TO: the aboli-
ton of the billbOards and asks, the
cooperation of the chamber in bring
ing this about. .'-.
The letter follows: .-.
AS you know, the Outdoor Circle
has been trying in its way to help this
city to become the attractive place
which it might and ought to be. In
this connection we have done what
we could to discourage The use OF
billboards, believing, as do many 9th
ers here and all over the mainland.
that this form Of advertising does as
much, if not more, than any other one
thing to mar natural scenery and to
Offend the eye, as we'll as in many
cases to obstruct the view or become
sources Of nuisance.
I'VE have taken up the matter with
many. of the local merchants, and with
manufacturers away from here, and
have had much success in keeping
many from using this form Of adver-
Using, several stating that they never
used billboards in those places where
there was a strong public feeling
against them.
I'VE are appreciative of the fact
that the billboards of this city have
not had muc1 or the Objectionable
matter that is seen on boards in some
other places.
I'VE had hoped that some action
mighu be taken by which the blemish
of billboards might be removed. or
regulated to the fullest extent by law,
but that has not come yet.
Now we see that another company
is to enter the field and do its part
toward defeating the purposes of
those who are interested in beauti-
flying our city. The Outdoor Circle
appeals to the new enlarged Cham
Der Of Commerce to take hold of this
matter of billboards. 1t seems parti-
cularly in line with the work which
this body has been formed to take
UP. The billboards must have the
support of the merchants. or they
could not exist. Will not the mer-
chants see that they are doing more
harm to their city in supporting these
boards than they are accomplishing
good to themselves? Those who are
agents for manufacturers away from
here have only to advise these par
ties that public opinion is strongly
against billbpards here, and such
signs would come down.
THE ladies of the city have done
much in this cause, together with
others. But is it not now a matter
for merchants, and particularly the
merchants in. this new civic body, Of
which you are the president? The
Outdoor Circle hopes that such action
may be taken as shall result not only
in no more companies taking up the
erection of billbcards, but in the re-
moving from thfs Territory of those
now standing.
Yours respectfully,
THE OUTDOOR CIRCLE"
