else board and president of the West
Virginia Society, said today that this
society already has been advocating
the establishment of a West Virginia
building in Washington, and that it
can be counted upon to do all within
its power to help develop the perma-
nent exposition idea.
Senator Duncan U. Fletcher of Florida
and Representative Watson of New
Hampshire are the presidents of the
local societies representing those
states. which are expected to cooper
ate in the undertaking.
A meeting of the presidents and other
representatives of the state societies to
consider how they may assist in the car
rynig out of the inaugural exhibit and
permanent exposition plans probably will
be held before the end of the present
week Snowden Ashford. chairman of the
entertainment committee of the fedora
ton, will issue the cali for the meeting.
He has issued a. general request to the

Mr.. Cantrill's Views.

such as Is proposed for the entertain
ment of inaugural visitors, should have
an educational value of far-reaching
effect, and believe it will accomplish

and appreciate what the government is
doing for them, and this is bound to
have beneficial result. l can see no
reason why Congress should not heartily
approve an undertaking of this nature

proposition. but is designed primarily
and entirely to be of benefit to the peo-
pie of the country"
