The memb=rs of the Stove Dealers’ Asso- ciation assen:bied last evening at 1226 H Street northwest. President Harrover pre- sented an encouraging report on organiza- tion. The committee on by-laws—Messrs. Flynn, Mathy and Barker—submitted a re- Fort, which was read and approved. An interesting discussion was engaged in con- cerning four impcrtant business factors— the manufacturer, the wholesale dealer, the retail dealer and the consumer. The sense of the meeting was that a proper observance of business principles by dealers would insure an equitable distribu- tion of patronage from consumers, and the result would be beneficial both to employer and employe. The members deprecated the alleged tendency of wholesale dealers to use the advantage of the low prices allowed by manufacturers to engage in unfair com- petition with retail dealers. The following were appointed as a com- mittee on organization: Messrs. 8. 8. Shead and Bro., Dodeon & Hodgeon, P. G. Lauer, W. H. Mehler and Barber & Ross.
