For the Purpose of Eliminating Unfair

commended.

Atlantic City, Oct. 90 Establish

pose of eliminating unfair information

merce, Il expected to result from the
international trade conference which is
to be held here this week. Informal
conferences and subcommittee meetings
were begun to-day and will continue
until the formal sessions begin on
Wednesday.
This new organization probably will
supplant the international congress Of
chambers of commerce and commercial
and industrial associations which for ii
years have been a eoRmon clearing
house for the business ideas of the
world. It's functions have been sus-
pended since June, 1914, and the sug-
gestion is now made that on the inr
valuable experience of this organization
be erected an even greater and more
closely knit structure.
Edward A. Filene of Boston, who
was one of the three American dele
gates of the permanent committee Of
the international congress, has pre-
pared plans for the new international
BODY which will be submitted to the
conference for consideration Foreign
delegates also have prepared plans and
while these differ in detail, the main
principles are said to be the same.
Under tentative plan Of the Ameri-
can delegate, the new organization will
endeavor to bear the same relation TO
the league of nations on commercial
subjects as the international labor con-
ference soon to convene in Washington
will have regarding labor problems. The
purpose and scope win be to carry out,
after peace has been declared, the eco
nomic and financial plans now being
put-into effect by the supreme economic
council at Paris.
AT the first open meeting Of the
delegates this morning the various for
eign missions met the corresponding
American committees and decided on
methods Of procedure. Alfred G. Bed
