C. Can Care for Crowds. Invitations to hold the two big po- litical couventions here next year were sent out last night by Presi-| dent Isaac Gans, on behalf of the Washington Chamber of Commerce, when the board of directors, at a meeting in the chamber’s rooms in the Homer building, 13th and F streets, approved the letters. The| dispatch of the letters marked the! first real efforts to get for Wash- ington these two big events, about which there has been much discus- slon in business circles recently. As an evidence that Washington can take care of the crowds the manner in which the visitors at the recent Shrine conclave were handled was cited in the letters, which were iden- tical, and were sent to John T. Adams. chairman of the republican national committee, and to Cordell Hull, chair- man of the democratic national com-. mittee. Text of Letter. | “The_Washington Chamber of Com- e A e Tetter, “takes great | pleasure in inviting the republican national committee to for holding the republican natig vention in Washington, D. C., in t “We believe there can be no more, appropriate place in which to hold} the convention which to select candidates for President and Vicei President of the United States than e National Capital. I his ia the one city in this coun-} ftry in which rour convention can bej held and be entirely free from allf entagling alliances and local partisan difficulties. Reference to Shrine Week. “There can be no doubt of the ability of our city properly to care for and entertain this great con- vantion. We have just had the largest convention gathering as- semblod In any city—the Shrincrs— and the hundreds of thousands of ViSitors were unanimously enthusi- astic in their praises for the =plendid reception and entertainment furnish- “d. We also point to the many notable inaugural gatherings _in Washington, which ~brought im- mense crowds of visitors to the cit “We especially Invite your att ton to the fact that before the clos of the year we will have a splendid auditorium which _ will be fully equipped to take care of the national convention. It occupies a most de- sirable location and with its mag- nificent auditorfum. exhibit hull and numerous committes rooms it pro- vides an ideal place for the meciing of the national convention. Can Meet All Conditions. “We know that we can meet all conditions contingent upon the hold- ing of this convention in Washing- ton. The national convention in the National Capital will be an enthusias tic success. We urge the natio committes to glve careful consider tion to our Invitation. Come Washington to nominate the men who may live in Washington for the next | four years.” The letters were read to the board arrange is {the American Legion. by Secretary Seymour and unan- imously approved. | The efficient manner in which the { recent Shrine convention was handled by the District officials. the Shrine committee, the police department and | citizens was the subject of a com- | mendatory resolution ~unanimous adopted by the board of directors last | : night. | "“After calling attention to the uni- versal praise of all, coupled with the lack of criticism, the resolution espe- i eially commended “Almas Temple, and particularly its general Shrine com- mittee, for the very efficient manner {in which this great convention was conducted. “The services rendered have re- Ited in putting Washington square- upon the map as a convention city i —capable of caring for any gathering or organization which may visit our city. The ultimate result must be | greatly for the benefit of all our Dpeople.” Fair Committee. i President Gans was authorized tol name a committee representing the large stores of the city to represent the_ chamber at the merchandise fair to.be held in New York City July 23 to August 3. He named William Everett, chairman; Sigmund Kann, Harry King, Sol Lansburgh, Julius Goldenherg and A. Lisner. ! Authorization was given to Presl- | deént Gans by the board to name a standing committee on private schools, to handle problems affecting those institutions. During the dis- cussion it was pointed out by M. A. Leese that this was one of the largest industries of the city, bringing as it does hundreds of thousands of dol- lars into the city each year. He pointed out that it was as much a matter of commerce as other busi- nesses of the city, and he thought the chamber should have such a com- | mittee. It will be known as the com- mittee on_universities, colleges and private schools. Ball Game Support Asked.

He cited the example of the people con- tributing money for sending the chief of police to the west ct t last year, and pointed out that Com- gress again refused to appropriate money to send him to the police chief's convention this year. = This also was a state function, he sald, adding that the police chief should be at the convention, representing as he does the nation’s capital, but that Congress should provide funds to send him. The matter was referred to the committee on law and leglisla- tion with instructions to work for larger appropriations for the Amer- icanization work in the next esti- mates, The request of Miss Cecil B. Norton that the Chamber of Commerce as- sist in underwriting the community center opera program this summer was referred to the committee on schools, Report on Outing. F. A.

Tickets will be $5 each, in- cluding a luncheon and a dinner, and Mr. Van Reuth promises some sur- prises in the way of entertainment. Robert N. Harper pointed out that there had been some discussion in the city of the falling off of bank deposits during Shrine week and undertook to explain it. He said that a pecullar situation prevailed here at the time, in that hundreds of thousands of dol. lars had been withdrawn from circu- lation and turned into the Treasury as taxes here, and that bank deposits would not show just how much money was spent here by the Shriners.
