executive committee brought forward a 

 recommendation for universal business 

 terms, and suggested what they might 

 be, but it was apparent that this was 

 principally for the purpose of passing 

 the proposition back to the members. 

 There was a long debate, showing a 

 wide divergence of individual customs 

 and views, and the matter finally was 

 disposed of by laying on the table. 



The executive committee, however, 

 has had the trade terms, embodying 

 short credits, cash discounts and other 

 features, printed in the form of a 

 sticker to be supplied in quantity, to 

 those who will use them, by the pecre- 

 tary and a number of leading houses 

 already have put the modern principles 

 into practice. This ia lioped to work 

 a gradual change and consolidation of 

 opinion among those n <w unwilling to 

 attempt uniformity. 



Bureau of Collections and Statistics. 



Curtis Nye Smith, counsel for the 

 association, not only reported on the 

 work done in the last year but discussed 

 a practical collection bureau for mem- 

 bers. On recommendation of the execu- 

 tive committee it was voted to proceed 

 ■with the organization of such a bureau, 

 in charge of Mr. Smith, who was re- 

 tained as counsel.

The officers also were instructed to 

 undertake the development of a bureau 

 of statistics to gather and disseminate 

 to members only facts with regard to 

 supplies of stock, present and prospec- 

 tive. Such information is expected to 

 assist in making prices and also in 

 guarding against either a surplus or a 

 shortage on any one item. 



The Confidential Bulletin. 



It was voted that the Confidential 

 Bulletin, of which three issues were dis- 

 tributed in the preceding year, be con- 

 tinued, that it be made the only official 

 organ of the association and that its 

 circulation be confined to members. 



The publication will carry no adver- 

 tisements and will be issued as fre- 

 quently as circumstances justify. Its
