NEW YORK. April 29.~—The 1925

for many-years, while Chambers of

“plan had been tried, they said, and
had not succeeded.
"I don t see why the name should
be changed.’r said a member this
morning. “There is no more 188-.

name of the railroad station. It will
not'make the Board any better."
W. H. Dieringer. who is the pres-
ent secretary. has always served
without pay.
"I'have heard nothing of a paid
secretary." he said. “If I am re-
elected I shall, continue as we have
always worked gratis. and for the
good of the organization."
‘ Another move toward the Cham-
