CHICAGO, Sept. Glenn Frank,
chairman Of the Republican party's
Program Committee, said today he
and his 280 associates would be pre-
pared to report on the state of the
nation within the next six weeks.
1t will take at least that much
longer. he estimated. for the COM

of American problems it began
nearly two years ago. At that time
Mr.. Frank described the inquiry as
a responsible search for the prin-
ciples and lines of national action
that will keep America going con-
cern.'
He said he was not yet ready to
discuss the conclusions the COM
mittee might have drawn from its
long study of problems in the fields
Of finance, commerce, taxation, agri-
culture and labor.
A public report will be drawn up
promptly, he announced, and an
additional mass of detail will be
made available to the party's 1910
convention committee.
Mr.. Frank, who has been dividing
his time between the Policy Com
mittee and his desk in the editors
office of a farm magazine, has de-
clared it was not the business of
the committee to write platforms.
What effect its reports will have on
the policies of the Republican cam
paign next year remained to be
seen.
The committee was formed by the
Republican national executive
group late in 1887. Its chairman
formerly was president of the Uni

Realizing the impossibility Of the

that to recondition these apartment
