SOUTHERN COMMERCIAL
CONGRESS
TO MEET AT CHARLESTON IN
DECEMBER--WILL TRULY BE
A NOTABLE OCCASION.
Charleston, November 10:?With
the early days of November has
come great activity on the part of
the local organization, cooperating
with the organization at Washington,
to prepare Charleston as the
hostess city of the Southern Commercial
Congress, the Atlantic battleship
fleet and thousands of visitors
from all parts of South Carolina
and the South. Almost daily,
at the present time, there is a meet
ing of one of the efficient committees
of the local organization and
the vim with which these committees
have taken hold is in itself an
assurance of the successful session
which the purposes and aims of the
Congress justifies.
Celebrating the victories of 50
years of peace in the United States,
the seventh annual convention of
the Congress in Charleston will be
addressed on fifteen big vital subjects
by more than half a hundred of the
ablest and most widely known men
of today from all parts of this and
foreign countries. In conjunction
with the session, whigh will be called
to order December 13 and which
will continue through December 17,
the woman's auxiliary of the Congress
will hold its annual convention
here, as will many other cooperating
organizations.
Heading the programme of enter
* tainment for the thrones that will
besiege the old city will be the great
Atlantic battle fleet. An army and
navy parade will be a notable feature
of the amusement programme,
and those who witness it will have
something to remember long. Sailors
from the battleships anchored in
the harbor, regulars from the army
( pust at Fort Moultrie and the militia
of the State will be in the line
ol uniformed men participating in
what perhaps will be the most extensive
review of troops ever seen in
South Carolina since the days of
1864-65. A specially selected carnival,
water and field sports and every
other known device for the entertainment
of the city's guests will be
included in the completed programme.
Under the auspices of the woman's
auxiliary, the Congress will be opened
on the afternoon of Monday, December
13. the day being designated
as "'Community Day." December
14 will be celebrated as "Peace
Day"; December 15, as "Navy Day";
December 16, as "Foreign Trade
Day", and December 17, as "The
South's Day".
As the woman's auxiliary figures,
and quite properly to a large extent
in the plans for "Community Day,"
the battleship fleet will occupy,
figuratively, the center of the stage
on "Peace Day," as the army and
navy parade will be the hub of the
programme on "Navy Day" and as
the House of Governors will be in
prominence on the day devoted to a
discussion of matters of "Foreign
Trade." On the "South's Day," the
final and big day of the convention,
the Southern Cotton Congress and
the big conference on the subject of
immigration will hold full sway.
The cooperation of more than 13
organizations, leaders and members
of which will gather here for the
Congress, has been secured, assuring
a full and fair discussion of all subjects
from every point of view.
Some of the organizations cooperating
are: The League to Enforce
Peace; International Institute of
Agriculture, Home, Italy; PanAmerican
Union; American Commission
on Agriculture Organization;
United States Commission on Rural
Mofinnol MorlotinfT fftm.

America; Southern Commercial Secretaries

Congress; Southern Cotton Congress;
International Municipal Congress;

Efficiency, Social Conditions,
Drainage, Riyers and Harbors,
Foreign Trade, Merchant Marine,
Cotton, Rural Credit, Marketing,
Good Roads and Agricultural Colonization?lends
to the cooperatior
of the several organizations named,
a significant part in the programme
The League to Enforce Peace, foi
instance, has charge, most appro
priatelv, of the programme for the
celebration and discussion of peace
while the various agricultural or
ganizations have in hand the plans
for an enlightening discussion ol
drainage, cotton, rural credit, mar
keting, good roads and agricultura
colonization. Great educators wil
discuss education and prominent ad
