 SESSION OF CONGRESS.
Y. N. [. OF L. FAVORS PLAN
Government Free Bath House to Be Removed From Center of City to Point on Reserve Avenue, Where 1t Win Be Less Conspicuous.

Appropriations of more than half a million dollars for not only the sew age and drainage work of this city, but carrying the sum of $l76,000 for the erection of a government free bath house out on Reserve avenue. and away from the center of Bath House Row, are almost within reach of this community, according to a re- port made by President George Cal lahan of the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce at it's regular meeting last night.
 A resolution was adopted endorsing the work of the interior department
 in the anticipated removal of the free bath house, and also its interest in the sewage and drainage appropria- tions for this city, which had been so long neglected.
 The matter of the enforced vacan- cies of the offices of those who were candidate for school election was thoroughly threshed out on the floor of the Chamber of Commerce, and as a result the new constitution carries in it a section which declares any of ficer of the organization removed who becomes a candidate for any office. The resignations of Harry A. Jones and Henry Covington, who are candi- dates for school directors. while hold ing office in the organization, were ' rendered, and the vacancies will be | ,f hg .P ganization.
 There were many who believed that l unless an arbitrary section prohibit ing any candidate for any office from holding office in the league was adopted the position of the organiza. tion might be misinterpreted In making the report of the com mittee on grievances. Gilbert Hoga- boom presented some very fragrant violations of good policy. if not open violation of law, that were praeticed here by imposters who have remedies to sell to those who are willing to buy without too close an investigation. Some of these matters are receiving Investigation at the hands of ths grand jury, which shows how thor oughly that organization Is seeking to be of general service to the commit nity.
 The matter of future advertising of Hot Springs was made the subject of lengthy debate on the floor of the organization. Mir. Schachleiter pre- sented a resolution which provided for a department of publicity within the organization.
 Chairman Douglas Hotchkiss of the publicity committee stated that a de- partmelt of publicity would no doubt be a good thing for the city, but that there was an expense in connection with such work, to make it effective, that would have to be taken care of, and that before anything definite were done in this matter, a commit | tee should be named to go into the | detail of such work, and if the plans
 met with approval, then they could
 be reported back to the Chamber Of 1 Commerce.
 laasmuch as the Business Mems l League is now engaged in securing
 public subscription of $5000 for sum- mer advertising to be expended along the lines the League has used former | ly, but in papers only of the south | section of the country, there was some | doubt as to whether the Chamber of | Commerce should undertake any work
 that would require a public subscrip- l tion to support it. even for adver- Using, and after much discussion of
 the subject a motion by Walter Ebel
 to defer action on the part of the Chamber of Commerce until the Busi- ness Mems League had finished it's
 subscription work, was adopted.
 The matter of conflict would only
 have arisen in the matter of secur- ing subscriptions. The Chamber of
 Commerce. under the adoption of the
 Ebel resolution, will remain inactive
 on the publicity proposition until the
 League mas secured it's subscription, when the Chamber of Commerce will
 take up the matter through a com. mittee and determine it's future pro
 ceedure in the matter of advertising
 Hot Springs.
 The committee named to cooperate
 with the publicity committee in an
 investigation of the details of the pro-
 posed plan is composed of Messrs. Schachleiter, Williamson. Katz, Far
 rish. Hogaboom, Latta and Drs. Hall
 man, Veil and Forbes.
