A. p. Payne. chairman of the water
and sewerage committee. said that his
committee had decided that there
were only two ways of installing a
water and sewerage system-f1rst, by
Incorporation Of the town, and. sec
ond. by having 1t handled by private
interests. He asked for the senti-
ment of the association and the for
mer plan was unanimously adopted.
Rev. A. e. Smith. a member of the
committee, proposed that the COM
mittee be authorized to take the nee
essary steps toward Incorporation, and
this was voted. He also said that 1t
was not fair for the present residents
to bear all the expense of these big
projects. and suggested that plan
he arranged whereby later genera
tions and newcomers to Clarendon be
made to shoulder some of the burden.
Thomas II. Manning. former vice
president of the association. stated
that he realized there would be some
objection to incorporation. and called
upon the members to put forth efforts
in winning over the opposition.
a petition has been drawn. to be
signed by property owners in Clar-
endon in favor Of Incorporation. 1t
was signed by practically every men,

Starting a bank, Incorporating tho
town and putting in water and sewerage
are three fairly large projects for a
community to tackle at one time. This.
however. is what is contemplated for
Clarendon. Va, as shown at an enthusi-
astic special meeting OF the Clarendon
Citizens Association last night in the
Dixie Theater.
lie Roy Sherman. chairman of the bank
committee. reported that his committee.
after thorough examination. had come
to the conclusion that a bank was pos
sible and that Clarendon would be a fer
tile field for such an institution. He
introduced Charles Eckloff, cashier of
the Central Savings Bank of Washing
ton, who told the members Of the asso-
citation that Clarendon was ideally 10
Gated for bank, and it would not have
to depend alone on home depositors for
an existence, as he was confident that
business would come from outlying
towns and from farmers throughout the
country. He explained that he thought
it could be put on sound basis with a
capitalization of $4,000. and suggested
that the amount could be raised right in
Clarendon by the sale of stock at $40 per
share.

The American Federation of Labor. at

creased purchasing power of the dol

were urged to bridge the gap and
increase wages without any con-
troversy."
