B g a0 AR e e i s xiieta ot SAYSU.S.G.0FC, [12 8 " ISBUSINESS Al Goonge B. Moore Tells Rotarians How It Serves - Legislation by tlie United States congress is based on information obtained through the national Chamber of Commerce quite fre- quently and such information often aids the passage of legislation of advantage to the local business man, according to George B. Moore, dis- trict secretary of the United States Chamber of Commerce, who ad- dreassed the Rotary club today. ‘The slogan of the national Cham- ber, according to Mr. Moore, is, “If it js-not good for business it is not good for the country and if it is not good for the country it is not good for business.” He recounted the history of the formgption of the national Chamber in 1912 when President Taft said he could sound the attitude of la- bor all over the country through the late S8amuel Gompers, but there was no way to get the concen- trated business attitude. Because of this the national Chamber. was born and now has 1,700 organization members and 22,000 corporations and individuals. He explained that when_questions come up concerning legislation about to be enacted by congress which are of interest to the coun- try as a whole, the national Cham- ber through its referendum ballot ascertains the general attitude of the entire country. That the national Chamber is of extreme importance in the minds of the national leaders he said is shown by the fact that at the an- nual meeting, May 2, there were 99 senators and congressmen present. He explained how it is impossible tor any individual congressman to study the entire list of bills submit- ted. More than 2,000 were submitted at one seasion. The United States Chamber of Commerce analyzes these bills and reports on them . The federal budget is one of the bills sponsored by ‘the national chamber, according to the speaker. He dwelt at some length on the a vantages to the country and to busi- ness in general by the saving of two million dollars through the national budget in one year. A campaign of health education s about to be started soon, the speaker continued, citing the loss to business and industry through sickness, which he said runs into ,000,000 in lost wages in one advocated monthly meeting of the combined civic clubs and Cham- bers of Commerce to discuss com- munity and national problems and told of how individual business men using modern methods have suc- cesstully met chain store competi- tion. ‘Mr. Moore was introduced by Sec- retary Ralph H. Benson of the local «l ber. h:xt Thursday the club will ob- serve Father and Son day. - e for Rome Hop Masbrouck Heights, N. J.

He was unable to offer any explanation of | the spots.” To Test Blood Further Snook served in the university vet- erinary clinic until dismissed. The | stains were analyzed as blood by C. | H. Long, a chemist, in a report de- {livered to authorities yesterday. He |announced further tests would be necessary to determine whether they | were made by human blood. | The prosecutor was aided in the {examination by Police Chiet Harry |E. French. Twice he left the coun- icil, but the questioning remained in | the hands of police during his ab- |sence, Once he left to interview an- |other witness who was not named. Another time he visited a room which Snook had admitted he main- tained as a meeting place with the girl while he lived with his wife and child.
