L. Faulkner, chair- man of the Capitol Grounds Com- mittee. The Delegate wrote that he had arranged for a conference with United States Treasury officials in the near future to determine if they had the authority and the funds to acquire the desired ground without further act of Congress. John Rustgard called attention to the fact that a bill recently intro- duced in Congress asked for $400,- 000 to erect a monument to Seward, at Seward, Alaska. H. B. LeFevre and R. R. Marco suggested that a more appropriate site for the mon- ument would be in the block of ground in front of the Capitol. President Concurs Their suggestions received the concurrence of Doctor Council. Al- though there is no likelihood of en- actment by Congress in the near future of a measure for the erec- tion of a S8eward monument, never- theless the subject was referred to the Capitol Grounds committee with the request that its members keep the matter in mind.

Secretary 'Walmsley announced that the executive committee had named Delma Hanson as clerk to sake charge of the Chamber’s in- formation bureau on Front Street this summer. To Receive Flier A. B.
