Meet To Guide
Kiwanis Activities
First Session of New Officers of
International Held in Chicago
Last Saturday.

The first meeting of the new officers
and trustees of Kiwanis International

tional convention at Denver in June
was held at the Drake Hotel in Chica.
go on July 10th. The board OF trus-
tees represents all sections of the
United States and Canada.
The work of the meeting was to
outline the policies to guide the activ-
tiles of all Kiwanis clubs for the next
year. or particular importance was
the planning for enlarged activities in
the realm of public affairs of the two
countries and in drawing up plans for
the erection of the Kiwanis Harding
Memorial at Stanley Park, Vancouver,
Canada, where the late President, who
was a charter member OF the Kiwanis
Club of Marion, Ohio, had made one
OF his last public addresses, which
stressed the need for continued friend
ly relations between Canada and this
country.
This memorial will have unusual
significance in contributing toward
these relations, because of the interna-
tional character of Kiwanis, and be-
cause it is in the lame of a President
of the United States who, when he
broke all precedents and visited Cana
da, did much to strengthen the friend
ship and peace between the two coun-
tries.
]. Walter c.. Taylor, OF Montreal,
Vice-President of Kiwanis Information
al, and who was chairman of the Ca
madam division of the International
committee which arranged for the Ca
madam participation, in speaking of
Kiwanis, said: "Kiwanis will be one
of the greatest powers for moulding
public opinion in America. One good
work it is doing is to make that inyis-
ible line which stretches from coast
to coast remain invisible"
The Canadian clubs will be active
with the study and observance of
Canadian Citizenship Week, which
will go into the origin, sources and
nature of the rights and responsible
ties of Canadian citizenship. Canadi-
ans have no Constitution such as is
the foundation of the government OF
the United States. This occasion will
be comparable with Constitution
Week. in the United States, which has
such widespread observance and
which is the reason for proclamation
by governors of states during the week
of September 14-20. They will also
work on the problem of Establishing

UNFAIR TRADE
CASE LOST
BY ]. :.
Supreme Court Decides Com
pany Has Right to Select
Its Customers.

The Federal Trade Commission
has lost it's case in the Supreme
Court Of the United States against
Raymond Brothers-Clark Company,
Of Lincoln, Neb., involving questions
Of unfair practice in connection with
an alleged attempt to hinder the
IT. A. Snider Preserve Company, OF
Marion, Ind, from delivering food
products to the Basket Stores Com.
rany.
The commission stated that the
company had hindered and attempt
ed to prevent the T. A. Snider Pre-
serve Company. Marion, Ind, from
selling and delivering food products
to the Basket Stores Company, a
competitor, or from selecting and
accepting the Basket Stores Com
pany as a customer in the sale and

Government claimed this to have
been unfair practice within the

lowed by an individual or by a com.
bination of individuals.
Lower Federal courts held that
the individual trader had a right

Cwritten for Cosmopolitan News Service
NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-There IL
every indication that 1924 will be
good year for the automobile indus.
try. l prefer to be conservative IN
my prediction, for at best any antici-
patton is merely common sense
guess.
With 100000 automobiles in
operation, 100000 of them in the
United States, and with a production
of 1900, 900 motor vehicles during
the last twelve months, we are rea-
sonably certain Of tremendous re-
placement business. There Is notn-
ing on the horizon to suggest any
serious let-up in the production and
sale of new automobiles.
Personally I believe that next
years production will be below that
of 1923. The consensus of opinion
among the parts executives ia our
industry seems to place the antlci-
pated figure somewhere in the neigh
borhood of 100000 cars and trucks,
which would represent a 10 per cent
drop from the 1923 output; but would
still make 1924 very big year for
the manufacturers and merchants In
this industry. In 1922 the total pro-
duction was only 100000 cars and
trucks, and this established . new
high record.
Big Companies Program.
The strong companies are prepar-
ing larger schedules and have every
reasonable expectation of a year OF
unbroken prosperity. This good
business will be maintained and in
some cases increased at the expense
of the less soundly established COM
panies. The overwhelming percent
age of the production is accounted
for by a relatively small group OF
corporate interests and the trend
continues in this direction, although
there will always be a place for the
smaller manufacturer with a solidly
established clientele, based on salts
faction and quality.
Monopoly in the automobile indus
try is out of the question, although
the larger manufacturers will have
the edge, because of the savings ef-
fected through mass production. No
matter how strong tendency in
the direction of mergers and integra-
ton, there will always be spirited
competition among the largest units.
For the long pull, and almost for
the immediate future, the foreign
trade outlook for the automotive in
dustry is bright. Substantial over
seas business can be done even with
Europe out of the market.
Australia, South America and the
Orient are buying steadily now from
the American manufacturers Of auto
motive products.

The Upper Snake River Union d
Waterusers will hold its annus1
meeting at Idaho Falls on Mondayt
March 8.
A year ago they employed r. l.
Meeker, an eminent irrigation en-
gineer, to study the water problems
of the Snake river to determine some,
questions of seepage and waste for
the purpose of apportioning the
losses between the storage interests
and the other settlers. His report
Indicates changes in the apportion-
ment, giving 1880 acre-feet to the
settlers, which had been charged to
them in losses. This was a subject
of much satisfaction to them and
seemed to establish one of the con-
tentions they had made of losses
suffered for a number of years,
which should not have been borne by
them. 1t Is said that his whole re-
port is to be given at the meeting
on the third of March, and 1t Is ex-
pected that each of the canal COM
panies will have one or more repre-
