ASSOCIATION URGED

as Pan-American Editors
Leave for Tour.

lutions recommending the creation of
a permanent association of American
journalists, the adoption of laws in all
nations of the Western Hemisphere
guaranteeing the freedom of the
press and upholding arbitration as
the logical means Of settling interna-
tional disputes, the first Pan-Ameri-
can Congress of Journalists adjourned

The final gavel did not fall, how
ever, before the delegates had sin
cerely urged the officials to recall
them to a similar conference next
year. This congress probably will be
summoned by the Pan-American
Union to meet in Buenos Aires and,
adopting the suggestion of President
Coolidge, will likely alternate between
North and South America every year
thereafter.
Last night the visiting delegates
said their formal farewells at a re.
ception given in their honor at the
Pan-American Union by Secretary of
State Kellogg and Mrs. Kellogg. At
tended by most of the President s
dent diplomatic corps and Washing
ton society, the affair was one of
the most brilliant receptions of the
season.
Tour Starts Late.
It was early morning before the
guests found their way back to ho-
tells and places of abode. Conse-
quently, the start on the tour that will
carry the visitors through America S
industrial centers was more than an
hour late today.
Special cars provided by the Vir-
ginia State Chamber of Commerce
called for the delegates at the Pan.
American Union at 1890 o'clock, but
it was nearly noon before they headed
out over the Highway Bridge toward
Alexandria, the first stop. Later the
caravan will visit Richmond Will
liamsburg, Norfolk and other cities
in Virginia. In Norfolk the visitors
will be turned over to representatives
of the Baltimore Sun and brought to
Baltimore on special steamer.
Philadelphia and New York will be
next and from the metropolis the dele
gates will start for the big cities of
the Middle West, the tour taking in
Detroit, Akron, Columbus, Pittsburgh,
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis
and other cities.
Twenty-nine resolutions were passed
by the congress before adjournment

ASKED0F CLERKS
Government Workers, to Be
Paid Tomorrow, Start
Donations to Fund.

The District of Columbia War
Memorial Commission today issued an
appeal to the Government worker to
take part of his or her pay which will
be disbursed tomorrow and turn 1t
over to the fund which is being raised
for the marble temple in Potomac
Park
Facilities for collecting these funds
already have been provided at direc-
ton of the Presidents cabinet,
through the numerous chief clerks.
and President Coolidge himself has
set the example by contributing his
personal check to the cause.
Several million dollars will be dis
bursed throughout the various Gov
ernment buildings tomorrow and as
the workers go about their rooms and
halls they will be faced by bulletins
with the signature Of President Cool
idge on his letter transmitting his
own contribution and commencing
the patriotic proposal to all people

Any Sum Acceptable.
Any sum will be acceptable to the
movement, it was announced by the
Government worker will feel that the
part he could take in the memorial
would be too small to count. No stated
sum is to be asked of the Govern
ment workers, who, on account of
their varying salaries, would be able to
give on a graduated scale. Several
chief clerks, however, report that the
rank and file of clerks already have
started contributing 81 each. Some
have been giving more. according to
their interest and their desire to give
as tribute to some member Of the
family or some friend who represented
them In the armed forces of the World
War.
The chief clerks of the departments
and establishments or their represen-
tatives have been authorized by the
cabinet to receive such contributions
and have worked out plans in con-
junction with the Memorial Commis-
sion and John Poole, chairman of the
campaign committee and treasurer of
the fund.

vored.
"Your contribution to the 5000, 900
cost of the memorial, whether it be
for 81. SO, 500 or 81 900 or any in

moments and Arms searched Smith,
