Philadelphia, Oct. 19.—The commit tee on arrangements of the National Association of Manufacturers met here yesterday to perfect arrangements for the holding of a National Reciprocity Convention, which was first proposed at the annual meeting of the Natienal Association in Detroit. It was de cided to hold the convention at Wash ington, D. C., beginning November 19. The convention wili probably last for three days. President Theodore C. Search, of the National Association of Manufactur ers, presided at the meeting, which was attended by 30 prominent manu facturers from various parts of the country. Mr. Search addressed the committee at some legnth. referring to the widespread interest in the pro posed convention and emphasized the necessity of preventing its diversion to purposes other than those originally intended. He made it very clear at the start that it was not to be a pro miscuous or disorganized mass meet ing. but a thoroughly organized con vention of properly accredited dele gates representing ecxluslvely the manufacturing interests of the coun try. Following Mr. Search's address there was a general discussion re garding the details of the convention, at the conclusion of which the fol lowing call was adopted by the com mittee and will be sent broadcast over the country: "In pursuance of a suggestion ad vanced by the National Association of Manufacturers at its annual con vention in Detroit in June, 1901. and subsequent action by the executive committee of the association, arrange ments have been made for the holding of a National Reciprocity Conference in Washington, November 19. The sole purpose of this conference is to discuss the expediency and practica bility of the broader application of the principles of the commercial reci procity as a means of expanding for eign markets for American products, without sacrificing the interests of any of our industries. The object of this convention is to ascertain accu rately the views of representative manufacturers on this subject and to formulate, if possible, some practical suggestions for such legislation or diplomatic negotiations as may be necessary to establish more intimate commercial relations between the United States and some nations. "This matter is of such vital Im portance to the entire business in terests of the country that it is hoped that you will give your earnest aid in making this movement a success and to that end appoint as delegates men who are thoroughly interested in the matter and willing to attend the convention and participate in its de liberations." The rules which accompany the call provide that organizations with a membership of 100 or less shall be en titled to appoint five delegates and five alternates. For each additional 100 members, up to 500, one addi tional delegate may be appointed. Or ganizations having over 500 members may appoint 10 delegates and 10 al ternates. Only those actively engaged as principals or executive officers in a manufacturing fii;m or corporation shall be eligible as delegates. Agents, attorneys or those engaged in purely mercantile or professional pursuits will not be recognized as delegates or alternates. The committee did not decide Just what organizations should be invited to appoint delegates, but after the consideration of a list prepared for this purpose, the entire matter was referred to the officers of the asso ciation. The National Association of Manufacturers will be represented in the convention by its general officers and vice presidents and delegates to be named from each state on the basis of membership of the association in those states the same manner as speci fied for the appointment of delegates by organizations.

B. Pike, Pike's Station, N. H.
