Washington is now definitely and decldedly the “Business Capital of the United States” Business has established its per- manent headquarters here, in the new home of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, occupancy of which was taken during the past week. And this new national home of business has been d signed not only to fit in with the Fine Arts Commis- sion’s plan for a harmonious con- struction of all buildings facing the quare bounded on the south by the S Mansion, but to business associations more and more to hold national conventions in the National Capital, by providing them with ideal accommodations.

Such meetings here will give thou sands of the underlying membership of the Chamber of Cammerce of the United States their first opportunity to inspect this new national home of business, especially those who have contributed to the building fund. It was originally designed to cost 0,000, but owing to the increased cost of labor and materials the cost has climbed to $3,000,000. Right here it is pertinent to note the wonderful growth of the National Chamber. It started 13 years ago with only two employes, a ecretary and stenographer, and today it ha: more than 400 employes, some of in every State in the Union. It has an organization mem- berghip of 1,327, of which 830 are chambers of commerce and 442 are trade associations, which represent the paper trade, tanners, etc. The underlying membership is 750,- 000 business men of the country.

So this new building, on | toric site across Lafayette Square from the White House, truly the home of American busin: housing the National Chamber of Commerce. It emphasizes the fact that the Na- | tional Chamber is a permanent insti- tution, and gives further impetus to the importance of Washington as a center for business interests. This is a reminder of Secretary Hoover's recent commendation of the great growth of associational activity. He sees the National Home for Business as one of many such institutions to be crected here.
