BEFOST ON SMITH MEMORIAL. 



(Wm. F. Gude, as cbnirman of the committee 

 on memorial to the late Wm. R. Smith at the 

 natioDal capital, presented the following report 

 at the Miuneapolis convention, August 22, 1913.] 



Your committee, appointed at the 

 convention held in August, 1912, in 

 Chicago, has been at work on the pre- 

 liminary arrangements toward securing 

 funds for a suitable memorial to the 

 late Wm. R. Smith. 



Your committee did not feel at lib- 

 erty to proceed until after interviews 

 had been arranged with the government 

 officials, with Andrew Carnegie and 

 with the trustees of the library left 

 by Mr. Smith. 



Consideration of what type of me- 

 morial would be best suited to com- 

 memorate our late friend for all time 

 to come has not been taken up as yet. 



In an interview this spring between 

 your chairman and Mr. Carnegie, the 

 latter expressed himself as much in- 

 terested in the project. He did not 

 wish to take the initiative, however, 

 and asked your chairman to see first 

 what the florists of the United States 

 would do. These being heard from, he 

 desired to know the result, as he did 

 not want the memorial erected without 

 having the privilege of contributing 



toward the expens^e oj^i^ constructica. 

 In the late spring or WIS, your co i- 

 mittee sent a letter to all secretari ;s 

 of our kindred organizations, so' le 

 sixty in number of record, in tie 

 United States. A number of replies 

 received stated that the matter wouid 

 be taken up individually or collectively 

 by members from many cities. Enco< r- 

 aging reports have come from oth(>r 

 sources, and while no money has be<n 

 asked for as yet, the sum of $145 haa 

 been received and deposited in bank 

 with the Munsey Trust Co., of Wash- 

 ington, D. C, four per cent interest 

 being paid on this deposit. 



The committee proposes to start an 

 active campaign in the early fall for 

 funds, giving all persons interested in 

 the memorial an opportunity to sub- 

 scribe.

 last year, was fully as good as could 

 reasonably be expected for a convention

 ute. Those from a distance whose pres- 

 ence had been noted up to the hour of 

 going to press were as follows:
