The New York Telephone Company
began it's preparations for the installa-
tion of the conventions telephone sys-
tenn six months ago. The heart OF the
system Is at the Commodore. Special
apparatus had to be built to make the
system possible.
The convention post Office on the ball
room floor at the Commodore handled
more general delivery mail yesterday
than Is handled in the entire city of
New York. The mail Is delivered every
half hour at the Commodore and in one
delivery were 1000 pieces of mail. The
mail Is swelled by the large numbers of
homo town newspapers arriving for the
visiting delegates.
Three weeks ago the American Bank
ers Association sent to every town rep
resented by banking contingents a list
OF the delegates from each particular
town. The out of town newspapers thus
keep their bankers supplied with daily
editions of their favorite newspapers
The association provided also for the
sale at the Commodore OF home town
papers of thirty-five of the larger cities
The registration system for this con-
vention has proved to be one of the best
that ever has been put into operation.
1t was based on theory that a large part
of the work of registering the delegates
and their guests could be got out Of the
way before the actual arrivals began.
For the last six months, as a result
of warnings from the local committee
as to the congestion OF hotel accommo-
dations in New York, those intending to
come to the convention have been writ
ing to the hotels of their choice for res

centralized and from this central list
registration cards were made up in ad-
vance. About $500 such pre-registra-
ton cards were prepared for persons liv-
ing outside of New York and 5000 for
those in New York. or q total OF 5000.
When the actual registration began
the files of these cards. subdivided by
alphabetical divisions, were on the desks
of the fifty or more registration clerks
1t was then simple matter when a con-
vention delegate or guest gave his name
to find his record, which was already
prepared. 1t was the work of only few
seconds to obtain his signature, slip his
name, which was already written on
small card, Into a slot In his convention
badge and hand him his credentials and
entertainment tickets. BY last night in
this way most of the New York registra-
tions had been cleaned up and more than
$500 OF the out of town registrations
were In.
Guy Emerson, executive manager of
the Local Committee of One Hundred
who supervised the working out of this
system, said that it was proving highly
efficient, even though thousands of out
OF town visitors had failed to heed the
advice of the committee and make their
reservations in advance. Mr.. Emer:or
said yesterday that sit looks as though
instead OF the 1900 people we planned
for we will have to take care of 10000
people" There are some 1900 people
working on the Job Of registration.

OmciaI Opening To-day.

Although the forty-eighth annual con-
vention does not officially open until
this morning an interesting program was
provided for the visiting bankers yester-
day. Two events were planned, a bus
ride through Westchester. starting at
1890 p. NJ, and a boat trip around Man
haitian Island. starting at 2:30 - NJ.
1t was possible for delegates to do only
one of the two and they had to make
their choice.
The buses for Westchester started
from the Commodore Hotel. They went
direct to Rye, the home of the Westches-
-Biltmore Country Club where a buff
fet luncheon was served. After luncheon
the buses proceeded to White Plains.
Kensico. Sleepy Hollow, Tarrytown and
Dobbs Ferry. The trip consumed about
four hours. A special squadron of six
teen motorcycle police officers accom-
panied the party.
The steamer for the round the island
trip left the pier at the foot of East
Forty-second street. The trip around
Manhattan. about forty miles. required
three hours
Large numbers of the visiting bankers
went to church yesterday and the in
formation offices OF the association were
besieged for directions TO churches of all
denominations.
