oiumemlation to Gener- -

iil Meeting.

The lecutlve Committee of theMen's League yfsteiday considered

the co'st, need and practicability of a com-

A commercial museum is nn organiza-tion intended for the tfole use of exporters.Tho first object Is to acquire credit Infor-mation as to customers on other countries,,,who buy from tho United States. Its sec-ond object Is to secure and exhibit to theexporters of the United States goods ofall kinds which are sold In foreign coun-tries by competitors of merchant" in theUnited States, with the trademarks andtne private price lists.

There are two organizations of this kindin the United States. One of them Is theAmerican Exporters' Association in NewYork, which furnishes the exporter of theUnited States with credit information andacts as agent for him In exinirtlng hisgoods and In making his collections.

The other U the Philadelphia Commercial Museum, which secures the credit In-

formation and makes the exhihlt of goodssold in foreign countries by tho competi-tors of our merchants, but does not trans-act business ftf them.

The Committee on Commerce and Manu-facturin- r;

reported that the matter be re-ferred to the next general meeting of thele.'iincue. as the committee, while not pre-pared to recommend that first tteps betaken towards establishing a commercialmuseum licie, did not feci Justified inabandoning the project
