EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT
MEETS WITH APPROVAL
Project of Federation of Citizens As
sociations Endorsed by Fed
eral Officials.

The Federation of Citizens Associa-
ions continued to meet with encour-
agement today in the formulating of
plans for the holding of government
educational exhibit in Washington dur
ing the week preceding inauguration.
James l.. Wilmeth. chief clerk of the
Treasury Department. and DR.. Philan-
der j.. Claxton, commissioner of edu-
cation. came out with strong boosts for
the undertaking. which, yesterday. re-
ceived the Endorsement of all three Dis
trict Commissioners.
THE Treasury Department will be
glad to cooperate to the fullest in
making this thing a success" said Mr.
Wilmeth. We have some interesting
exhibits, which can be made part of
the general symposium.
The government has always had an
exhibit at the expositions held in this
country and l feel sure it will be glad
to set up a display here in Washing
ton, the workshop of the nation, for
the instruction of the thousands of
visitors who are expected to attend
the inauguration. The project is a
meritorious one and should accom-
plish the greatest good"
DIR. ClaXton said that as an educa-
tional proposition the federation's pro-
posal appealed to him strongly and
was undoubtedly a step in the right
direction. He thought participation by
the various government departments in
the exhibit should be as extensive as
funds available for this purpose would
permit.
