Chamber of Commerce Working
v to Havq It Established,
j' Says Howard B French,
!.j President
(criticisms RESENTED
The Philadelphia. Chamber of Commerce
ta and'thM been making every effort to have
he $ 1 000,000 naval laboratory and expert
.ntiil station provided for In the naval ap-
I iroprlat'on act located In this city.
This statement was mada today by How
rd B. French, president of tho chamber,
I in reply to criticism that tho acttvltlei of
that body In attempting to bring tho prlza
' to Philadelphia havo not been apparent
The most Important part of our work
necessarily'' "has been secret," said Mr.
French. "But wo havo been using every
means at our disposal to 'bring about a
dtclalon for this city.
WILL CONTER WITH BDISOM
The commltteo appointed In February to
chow tho advantages ot Lcnguo Island ns a
lite for the laboratory has accomplished
a great deal. At present It Is awaiting
' an appointment with Thomas 13. Edison,
chairman of the Navat Advisory Board, In
order to present tho claims of Philadelphia
to that body. Work of this kind must move
lowly. Howover, public-spirited citizens
may rest assured that tho representations
tnade in behalf of this city will not bo
weak."
There woa an air of confidence In the
Chamber of Commerce this afternoon, with
the location of tho laboratory still an open
question. Philadelphia's claims for tho slto
are being contested by Washington and An
napolis, and, It Is said, powerful interests
In New York aro working for tho prlza.
The secrecy which has characterized a
large part of tho negotiations for tho olto
was Imperative, bo that rival cities would
not know Philadelphia's "hand," Mr. French
-aid.
CITT UP TO nCQUinEMENTS
Continuing, ho said:
"According to tho "Wan laid out by Mr.
Edison, the laboratory should bo located at
tidewater, where thero Is sufficient depth
to permit a dreadnought to dock; that It
should bo located near but not In a largo
city, and that oecrecy should be tho govern
ing factor In tho project
"It has been tho contention of the Phila
delphia Chamber of Commerce that Phila
delphia measurod up tho requirements set
by Mr. Edison and his colleagues, and that
from a survey of the wholo situation Phila
delphia was tho Ideal city for tho location
of such a project.
'This view has been concurred In thor
oughly by Senators Penrose and Oliver,
Congressman Edmonds and. a number of
publlo-splrltod citizens who havo beon striv
ing to havo tho laboratory located here."

PHILADELPHIA SUlFRAGISTS AT ATLANTIC CITY CONVENTION
MBS UWRENCE IEWS jBBtM
NO INDORSEMENT OF ANY
PARTY BY SUFFRAGISTS
Continued from Tore One.
for anything else, suoh ns passago Stato
by State, Is a wosto of effort and time.
Tho National Association has net or de
clared itself very definitely, but has worked
for both Stato legislation and tho amend
ment but not for tho latter with tho em
phasis that Is instanced by the Congres
sional Union.
THE THREE METHODS
So beginning today tho delegates are
going to talk out threo wayi of npproachi
Thoy are going to consider gaining suf
frage by tho congressional routo purely.
They aro going to consider gaining suf
frage by tho Stato legislation routo purely.
They aro going to consider gaining suf
frago by working at both routes.
For tho first method tho argument will
be presented By Mrs Ida Hustcd Harper,
of New York, and Mrs. Qlcndower Eant.
of Massachusetts.
For tho second method tho nrgument will
bo presented by Miss Laura Clay, of Ken
tucky, and Miss Kato Gordon, of Louisi
ana. For tho third or combined method the
argumont will bo presented by Mrs Ray
mond Drown, of Now York, and Miss Flor
ence Allen, of Ohio.
Thon tho floor will tnko up tho discus
sion and tho convention will say what's
what Mrs. Catt declines to anticipate the
result
Sho makes tho reservation, howotcr, that
whtlo tho action thus voted on will dccldo
tho campaign plan, It will not necessarily
dotormlno adcllnlto election policy. That
Is to be mado tho subject of future con
sideration Mrs. Catt, lllto her predecessor, Dr. Anna
Howard Shaw, Is against any procedure
which proposes to enfranchise women by
partisan methods. Tho reason for this la
that sho does not want tho women voters,
onco thoy all aro such, to feel any obliga
tion to any ono party: Bhe wants thorn to
be freo voting agents, without being under
tha compulsion of gratltudo.
So. no matter what action Is taken, It
seems pretty certain that no candidate will
get tho Indorsomont of this conontlon. On
tho contrary, tho suffrage leaders hero feel
they aro asking something that Is coming
to them, not something they need eer
after feel obliged for, and thoy aro going
to try to Impress on both parties that all
thoy want Is justice They havo nothing to
sell.
Thoro Is an Interesting curiosity aa to
what President Wilson will havo to say to
tho dclogates when he talks to them hero
Friday night Thoso hero will venture a
guess, for they nro not used Jto Presldont
Wljson being a willing talkor. Every tlmo
thoy havo over had a word out of him be
foro It had to bo got with a long drawn
effort, and tho lncldont cf Mr. "Wilson
coming lieio of his own freo will to talk Is
almost quieting.
Tho delegates are already here In great
numbers, although It la early, and tho real
action may bo postponed until tomorrow.
Tho meetings aro to bo In tho New Nixon
Theater on tho Boardwalk, and with an ar
chitect's ingenuity the planners expoct to
take caro ot 3000 delogateo comfortably.

$10,000 for a Better-Made Piano t
Than the Matchless Cunningham ;
is a bona fide offer, demonstrating the confidence we have in our
product, for we know there is no better material obtainable than
is found in the Matchless Cunningham Pianos.
Then, when purchasing direct from the maker, you save 25 to
30', which represents the dealers' profits, shipping from some

Why purchase an unknown make when you can buy a Piano with a

Remember that when you
buy a piano you buy it for

here in Philadelphia for-over
a quarter of a century.
