Frank J.. Symmes, president of the San Francisco , Merchants' Association, said that all he had heard madg him feel that his town was pretty small. He spéke of the need of good, big hotels for this part of California, which 1is away behind Southern California in that respect.

There should°be co-operation between the town, the university, the rail- road and Oakland. He appealed to all citizens to work for the election of the bonds for $25,000 for the schools. John A.
