Brooke Lee was adopted authorizing the organiza- tion committee, which the president was directed to appoint, to act as a credentials committee to pass on the credentials of delegates at the next meeting. Mr. Bride bhrought out the point that the organization was not to be lm- ited to southern Montgomery County, but would handle the affairs of the entire county. H. F. Taff, mayor of Takoma Park, spoke in favor of the organization, but found some fault with the repre- sentation in the body, pointing out that Takoma Park would only have three delegates, whereas the Chevy Chase sectlon, divided into five com- munities, would have 16.

The in- fluence which we will have with the officials of the county government will undoubtedly be in direct propor- tion to the extent and value of our proposal.” The lost cities of Celyon, the ruins of which are one of the wonders of the world, are believed to have been abandoned on account of malaria.
