TWENTIETH ANNUAL YEAR BOOK— PART III 249 



that he may be able to form public opinion along with the members 

 of the national chamber. Therefore, it is the policy at the present 

 time to place in the hands of every business man who will allow 

 them to do so the reading of the Nation's Business. I don't know 

 what more I can say other than this. The national chamber would 

 like to be able to have every man read this journal without expense 

 to him, but it would be impracticable for you as business men to ex- 

 pect that the national chamber would send the publication to every 

 man without expense, but they have figured out what the expense 

 will be and that is merely the expense of printing and of mailing. 

 It is not a publication for profit, it is a publication for service, in 

 order to serve the business men of the nation, in order that they 

 may be efficient in every line of business activity. Therefore, they 

 are requesting that during the period of two years, and they figure 

 it will take two years to educate the public sufficiently to bring 

 business back to normal conditions, and they are requesting that the 

 business men throughout the country shall allow themselves to be 

 placed on the mailing list of the Nation's Business at the nominal 

 sum of $5.00, covering the two-year period. 



There is nothing more that I can say than simply to ask that you 

 will allow yourselves to be placed on the mailing list and that you 

 will give your name to Mr. Baker, who is the business manager 

 of this district for this particular purpose. 



The Chairman : I will name on the committee for redistricting 

 Mr. J. Q. Lauer as chairman, Mr. W. R. Scholfield and Mr. Roy T. 

 Rowland. 



I want to call your attention to the meeting of the State Board 

 of Agriculture at the state house tomorrow morning at 9 :30 o'clock. 

 We ought to be there promptly at that time. 



Remember the banquet down in the main dining room of the hotel 

 this evening at 6 :30, and also remember to get your tickets. 



There should be appointed an entertainment committee for the 

 ensuing year of three members. 



Motion by Benson, seconded by Bailey, that the chairman appoint 

 such committee. Unanimously adopted. 



The Chairman: We will now adjourn until the banquet hour.
