The States Exhibit Plan.

To the Editor of The Star:
The scheme, once again broached by
Mrs. John 3. Henderson, in your Sun
day edition. of establishing in the
District of Columbia permanent
states exposition, contains elements
of vast Importance for this city. Such
an aggregat ton of exhibits. represent
ing the products, industrial, agricul
tural, mineral and educational, of
each state. would draw to Washing
ton the large buyers of the world, as
well as our own, who desired to trade
with US and who would find at this
exposition complete sample exhibits,
and agents representing the makers
and large dealers. These manufac-
turers and dealers could pay a mod
crate rental for space which would go
far toward paying a moderate income
for the cost of the exposition and it's
maintenance. In fact. believe that a
proper financial plan, backed by state
associations for the promotion of
their trade, would find a ready and
even enthusiastic support when
launched by proper local commit
tee. 1t is project worthy the i'm
mediate attention of our citizen as
sociations and our trade bodies, who
should appoint permanent commit
tees, all to join and elect an execu-
tive board for formulating and initi-
ating proper action.
Mrs. Henderson has pointed out
ton possesses for this important
scheme, and has, I notice. thought
out admirable details, to which many
others would be added once the plan
took tangible shape.
