Want Private Profits
 Out of Injured Workers

Washington, March 8.-The Fitz- gerald bill, which would eliminate private compensation insurance com panies in the District of Columbia, is opposed by business interests that / are lined up with the private com panies.
 All the bugaboos of "private mo- nopoly" and destruction of private initiative" is used by those who would profit out of the misery of disabled workers.
 Congressman Fitzgerald, the author of the bill, says there is na- tion-wide campaign to defeat his measure. The. companies fear if congress approves this bill, the theory that there shall be no profit in com states will be renewed with vigor.
 The chief lobbyist for the private companies admits that American and British interests are urging the Un- derhill bill, which is favorable to them.
 Testifying before the house com mittee, President Gompers declared that the Underhill bill merely pro- vides for litigation and t6e necessity for employing lawyers. MT. Com pers said what was wanted was law under which a mans injuries twill not be viewed from the cold, legal vision, but from humane standpoint, even if it is without precedent"

 He gave considerable credit to the committee for it's loyalty in the work and the energy with which it was at it. The committee consisted besides himself and Secretary Ornburn, of Vice-President George Chandler of Greenwich, Karl Lang of Bridgeport, Thomas Russell of Hartford, James F. Donohue of Waterbury and Fran cis R. Everin of Hartford.
 Secretary Ornburn read the report of the committee with the recommen- dation that the bank be started with a capital of $1OO,OOO and surplus of $1OO,0O0. It was amply provided that Labor should at all times control the institution by holding onto at least 51 per cent. of the stock. The site was not gone into, it being left open for the present as the com mittee has already been offered sev- eral appropriate locations, but which it was not deemed wise to make public just now because of perhaps a sudden jump in price if it became known what Labor is dickering for.
 Pending temporary organization the committee has been bonded so that any finances received for the bank, either in stock sales or contri- buttons toward expenses will be amply protected until the bank is formerly organized. The report was discussed at great length, not a dele gate but being strong in favor of the program and when the convention adjourned shortly before 6 o'clock the establishment of the bank was practically assured.
 Under the rules, however, each affiliated union must formally authorize the institution and to this end the referendum was ordered. When completed it is likely that an other special convention of the state federation will be called and the or ganization completed. This can well be done before summer, it is ex- pected.

HEAR MISS FRASER

Tuesday evening Miss Charlotte
Fraser, who has come to this cit
under the auspices of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and who
has been a social worker for num-
Der of years at Ellis Island, New
York City spoke at the weekly meeting
Of the Girls Friendly Society of st.
Marks Church. She described the
helpful work Of the Girls Friendly
Society in connection with the i'm
migrants in New York City.
Miss Fraser impressed upon her
hearers the value of good health, if
their lives were to count, and then
went on to show that their mission of
service did not only include their own
church and home city but their coun-
try and the world. 1t was suggested
that the organization could do valua-
bic home missionary work by making
those feel at home to whom American
ways and customs and ideals were
strange. The speaker also impressed
upon her audience the imperative re-
sponsibility of all young women of
legal age to register and to take part
in the government of the city, state
and nation.

VALLEY CORN WILL
BE CONTENDER ON
NORTHERN MARKETS
Heavy Shipments to Gel
OFF Ahead Of Other
- Sections.

Brownsville. Tex, March 22.-The
Rio Grande Valley will be a strong
contender in the early sweet corn mar
kets of the North this season, and the
movement Of this crop will start about
May 10, continuing to the middle of
June. Hidalgo county, which has be-
tween 200 and 500 acres planted to
early corn. will probably have the
heaviest shipments, but Cameron coun-
ty, especially in the San Benito, Har-
lingen and La Feria sections, will be
a heavy shipper.
The valley invariably gets its sweet
corn on the northern market from two
to three weeks ahead of any other Sec
ton, securing the top price on prac-
tically all produced.

E. OF T.. SALES PLAN
HERE SIMILAR TO
IDEAL TRADE PLAN
National Chamber Official
Comments on
League.

Comparison of the methods employ
ed in the trade extension department
of the San Antonio Chamber of Com
merce with the ideal plan compiled by
the distribution manager of the cham
Der of commerce of the United States
show that the salesmanship systems
directed by the San Antonio chamber
are the first and best of the kind TO
be used in any similar organization
in the United States, according TO
c. c. Wolfe, trade extension secre
tary of the San Antonio chamber.
Although each city of any size in
the country has its salesmanship
leagues with the object of stimulating
new business in that .city's trade ter
ritory, none of these cities use the
kind of craftsmanship system inau
gurated in San Antonio by Mr.. Wolfe.
Through the reporting system, which
keeps the distributor thoroughly in
touch with possible new business in
his trade territory, new business is
brought to the city by its statesmen,
who report each week through the
trade extension department of the
Chamber of Commerce the develop
ment that is going on or about to
take place in the smaller towns.
In his letter to Mr.. Wolfe, the dis
tribution manager of the chamber of
commerce of the United States, Mr..
Dodd, stated that he had followed the
work of the San Antonio trade bu-
rcau with great interest. because the
methods employed are SO nearly like
the pattern of the ideal trade extern
sion plan. Mr.. Dodd enclosed in his
letter a. copy of the plan published
by the national chamber as the ideal
outline for trade bureaus.
This plan has but one feature that
is not used in San Antonio, according
to Mr.. Wolfe. This is a survey of
transportation facilities for shippers.
As the chamber here has no freight
bureau in its organization, it does not
fulfill this one requirement of the ma
tional chambers plan. The other six
features, including trade extension
tours, compilation of trade prospects,
provision of means to bring buyers
to the city. organization of salesman
ship clubs, publication of trade
journal, and holding of buyers con
ventions, are all employed in the San
Antonio chambers plan.
Another trade convention similar to
the one held in February is being
planned, and several trade tours are
in the making now. The convention
will take place in July, while trade
trip to Brownwood and several cham
bers of commerce in the Northwestern
portion of the state, united in the
Chamber of Commerce fair, will take
place during the next week or ten
days. Plans for this trip will be COM
pleted during the next few days.
Excellent results have been obtained
from the Salesmans League, through
the reporting system, according to Mr..
Wolfe. One man reported the build
ing of a new hotel, the opening of n
store and a meat market, and the
construction of cotton compress, a
month before either Of these transac-
tons actually took place. This sss-
TEN, used as a general news bureau
for distributors, wholesalers and manu-
facturers, has brought thousands of
dollars of new business to San An
tonic during the last few months.
