SILVERIS SOUGHT FOR BRYAN FUND Memorial Committee Will Ask Small Donations From “Common People.” President Josephus Daniels and other officers of the Bryan Memorial Association, formed here yesterday for the purpose of erecting a monument in the Capital to the memory of the late William Jennings Bryan, were en- gaged today in perfecting a plan of regional organization for the raising of funds with which to carry out their objective. It is the intention of the assoc te appoint a number of additio presidents, representing various portant sections of the United Sta fhese officers to supervise the receipt of donations in their Three non-geographical ~vice presi- dencles were fliied yesterday with the selection of H. W. Thompson, John Skelton Williams and Raymond Rob- bins. The members of the association were in executive conference until last midnight, and planned to meet again this evening for further discussion of its program. It has been agreed that the me- morial, whatever its form, will depict no special phase of the Commoner's career, but will be expressive of all the qualities of the man. Recognizing ion vice im the difficulty presented in selecting a | design representative of so wide a sphere of activity, the association an- nounced that it will receive and con. sider carefully all suggestions before .deciding on the type of monument. It was indicated that the organization at | present will devote its time principally to working out plans for defraying the cost of the memorial. It will be the policy of the asso oiation to encourage small donations | in silver from as many of Bryan's ‘common friends and admirers’ as wish to share in honoring their lead- or's memory. ‘It was in the hearts of the com- mon people that Mr. Bryan was one of their kind,” Secretary P. H. Cal- Jahan announced. ‘““This movement to perpetuate his memory should extend to the hamlets and the cross-roads. The sessions of the association are being held at the La Fayette Hotel, Sirteenth and 1 streets. P. H. KELLEY RITES. Late Representative’s Remains Sent to Michigan.
