Sonesta PAGE FOUR STATE ADVISORS -T0 PUSH SUPPORT OF NEW YORK FAIR MRS. ASTOR AND W. Wi. ALD- RICH HEAD NATIONAL COMMITTEE TO PROMOTE EXPOSITION New York, Dec. 29, 1936.—The 'New. York World’s Fair of 1939 has established a system of national ad- committees which will ulti- ‘mately number among. its 10,000 ac- tive members 100 men and 100 jwomen from every state in the na- tion.. The services of the leaders fps each state will be utilized in de- veloping and producing a world’s fair that, while carrying the name of New York, will in fact be a truly ‘national enterprise. An announcement_to this effect jwas made to-day by Grover Whalen, ‘President of the Fair Corporation, during impressive news reel cere- monies attending the launching of a campaign to enlist the cooperation ‘of all states. Winthrop W. Aldrich, Chairman ‘of the Board of the Chase National Bank, President of the New York ‘State Chamber of Commerce, and a director of many nationally-known business establishments, accepted ‘the chairmanship of the National ‘Advisory Committee. Mrs. Vincent ‘Astor, internationally-known leader of philanthropic and civic move- pments, accepted the chairmanship ‘of the Women’s National Advisory Committee. i} Plan State Chairmen These dual organizations will function separately in activities along parallel lines. They will em- ‘ploy all organized facilities for piss the states into the Fair and paved them there for the general good, according to the announce- ment. State chairmen, as nominated by the chambers of commerce of their ®espective states, will be announced fn the near future. Each state unit of the dual national committees will enroll 100 men or 100 women, de- Signated because of their promin- fence in business and civic activities. ‘The whole system is devised along fines like those of the Liberty Loan drives. It is described as “con- wtituting an almost unorecedented strength in organized public en- deavor.” “We are producing everyman’s Sair,” said Mr. Whalen i in announc- ing the campaign. “Day by day we are encouraged to believe that we can interest every man from every clime in the New York Fait. ‘To the end that this be one of the realities of 1939, the National Ad- visory Committees are being formed for the function of bringing every one of the 48 states into prominent participation in the Fair and for shorving every American citizen that he has an active part in the expo- wition long before the opening date of April 30, 1939, “The state units of the dual com- imittees will function individually in ‘matters of interest pertaining to the Fair and as regards state partici- {pation through the erection of build- ings or exhibits. Each pod will ihave its liaison between its people ‘and the Fair Corporation. acl state chairman will be ‘chief liaison jofficer’ between the Fair and the {state commissions and representa- |tive civic, commercial and profes- sional groups set up to foster public linterest in the 1939 Fair and pro- mote state participation.” General Nolan to Tour During the ceremonies Mr. Wha- ten resented Major General Dennis Nolan, retired, director of the Fairs department of Foreign, State land Municipal Participation. yeral Nolan is to visit most of the \States and confer personally with igovérnors. The work of the na- \tional committees will be in direct ‘support of his efforts to interest the various states in participation. Clubs in great variety, womens organizations, civic groups and other sociai units—all of these, Mr. Wha- Jen said, will be brought into the New -York Fair activities through the liason of the state divisions of the two national committees, , “The state committees will be furnished all information the Fair Corporation can assemble concern- ing the progress being made and urposes as they develop,” Mr. Whalen promised. “The units will supplied with e jhotographs, models and literature. They will be able to supply every man with as much information as the New Yorker has of the Fair. Every man, no matter where he lives the United States, may know exactly what is going into the making of the nation’s exposition, and he will be aided in visualizing it as he sits in his home.” Arrange Dance At Garden Of Roses ,, Another capacity crowd is ex- yacted to be on hand at Pena’s sGarden of Roses tomorrow eve- ining when festivities begin at the ae New Year’s Eve Dance. ‘Management of Pena’s place asks that‘all reservations be made garly, All which are not called “forsby midnight will be cancelled.
