. held in' Chicago is October will
route unusual interest already is ap-
rent. scores of letters from many
‘ prominent in the various pursuits have
”byes received by the National Civic
“iteration, under whose auspices the
. conference is to be held. Almost with-
"out. exception the expressions of the
writers are highly commendatory and
the. opinion . thatgreat good will
result from the exchange of ideas so
~ pears to be general. Among .thOse who
j‘ have written in this vein are the Rev.
Dr. Lyman Abbott D. D;, editor of
The (launch; Samuel Gompers, Presi-
dent or the American Federations!
. Labor; Richard Watson Glider. editor
' ~ of The Ce'ntury: John Mitchell. Presi-
f client of. the .Unlted, Mine Workers. of

Chicago; Bishop Henry C. Potter;
Charles G Dawes, the Chicago bank—
. errJohn M. ,Stahl. President of the
‘ Farmers National Congress and Na-
...'. hum J. Bachelder. Grand Master of the
National Grange.
Dr. Abbott in his letter voices the
sentiment which runs through all the
communication when he says “This is
a time when we need light. not heat."
Neely- ail the writers believe that the
greatest good will come from the wide
publicity which will be given the
trust question as a result of open dis
cussion by the leaders of thought Who
will. take part in the conference ,“lt
seems to me fundamentally true" writ-
as Dr. Abbott “that the interests of
the railroads. the shippers and the“
general public are essentially one. and
that it is of the utmost importance
that men representing 'all these classes
should get together, compare views
and endeavor to come to some agree-
, merit as to the general principles by
which these common interests can be
‘ _ best served.“ Mr. Glider believes
L‘ L) that “This talk will help to bring calm-
a
nose and coolness. to the public mind.
and Heaven knows it needs them."
Judge Grossup says that it is full time
that the corporations "which have
grown up as developments of our busi-
ness life without much reference to
their relation to the people as institu‘
tions, of. and for, the people. he look-
ed into and institutions of and for,
the people." Bishop Pctter believes
. - that by “bringing the whole subject
. . of the administration of corporations
‘ into the light we may be assisted by
the best intelligence of the land" in
clearing up a subject concerning which
there is “so much ignorance and so
much curious misapprehension." That
the, conference will be productive of
much good in that it will allow all
sides to meet and freely express their
opinion on that he regards as one of
_ the greatest subjects the country has
to deal with, is the opinion of. Presi-
dent Gompers.L John Mitchell also
sees much possible good in open and
free discussion. Mr. Dawes regards the
calling of the conference at this time
as a highly useful piece of work. He
believes that the industrial problems
confronting the country. today demand
consideration at the conference are de-
clared by President Stall of the Far-
mers Congress to be “the most im-
portant. pressing for ‘solution before
our people today." Grand Master Ba-
chelder believes it is time “for serious
people to discuss the trust problem

modern School buildings and an ex.

payers havc always been rsry liberal
when matters relating to the schools
have been considered and have fuin
ished large sums of money without
objection. which indicates that there
is a proper appreciation of value of
education to the community.
One of the attractions of The Nor-
walks as a place of residence is the
schools and the investment in good
buildings has justified itself from a
purely business standpoint.
