ELLIOT H. GOODWIN RESIGNS
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE POST
Resident Vice President Is
Credited With Growth of
National Body.
Led Move to Construct
$4,000, 900 Headquarters
Building Here.

Elliot II. Goodwin, resident vice
president of The Chamber Of Com
merce of the United States until yes
terday. to whose efforts credit is
given for the remarkable expansion
of the organization in recent years,
contemplates leaving Washington
soon for his home in Boston.
His resignation having been ac-
cepted by the board of directors, at
his own insistence, after Is years
service with the national chamber,
Mr. Goodwin let it be known that he
has made no definite plans for the
future. In this connection he took
occasion TO deny that he is being
considered as a possible successor to
DIR. A Lawrence Lowell, president of
Harvard University. AS a nephew of
the late DR.. Charles w. Eliot, presi-
dent emeritus of Harvard. and a
graduate Of Harvard in 1895, Mr..
Goodwin's name has ben mentioned
prominently with rumorS of DIR.
Lowelrs expected retirement.
Il know that DR.. Lowell has no
intention Of resigning," said Mr..
Goodwin.
Board Finally Acts.
His own resignation as resident
vice president OF the Chamber of Com
merce was rendered to the directors
lest Spring. At g recent meeting of
the board in Nashville, Tenn, the
directors failed to take definite ac-
ton on the resignation. y few days
ago, Mr.. Goodwin again called upon
the board to accept 1t, which it did
reluctantly.
Mr.. Goodwin's resignation. while
not unexpected, was not occasioned
by any Ill feeling between him and
the directors. Owing to the wide
expansion Of the chambers activities,
the directors felt il necessary to make
changes in the duties and functions
Of the office of resident vice president.
Under the new order the business of
the chamber in Washington, il was
said will be carried on by the exec
utive council and the work here
tofore done by Mr.. Goodwin will be
divided among its members.
Mr. Goodwin was requested to re-
main with the chamber in behalf of
which for l3 years he has given his
untiring labors. UnwillinESto to accept
the changes in the administration
of the Washington office. he decided
TO resign.
In announcing the resignation John
w. O'Leary Of Chicago, president of
the chamber, did so with regret.
While the office Of resident vice pres
ident has not been abolished, Mr..
OLeary let it be known that for the
present at least the vacancy would

associations having an underlying
membership Of more than 100000 and

AT Mr. Goodwin's request his res
ignation was accepted by the board
OF directors SO that he may be free
to undertake other service"
Either the president or some other
officer in the Washington head
quarters to be named by him will act
but 1t is not likely under the new
rules that such an officer would he

trusted to Mr.. Goodwin. The latter s
salary while with the chamber was

1t was pointed out that one of the
outstanding accomplishments Of Mr..
Goodwin's administration was the
construction of the 100000 build
ing in Washington in which the ex-
ecutive staff is housed. Through Mr..
Goodwin's influence the chambers s
growth also was extended to include
the American Chamber of Commerce
in London, Paris and other foreign
capitals.
Before entering the service Of the
Chamber of Commerce Mr.. Goodwin
was associated in an executive capac-
ity with the National Civil Reform
