- 3 - oth HIRI Sa ont ey August 14, 1926 WINNETKA TALK TRADE ORGANIZATIONS ARE SUBJECT OF STUDY Leading Economists to Give Two Weeks' Course at Secretarys' School in Evanston Ten of the leading economists of America, selected from five outstand- ing American universities; twenty- four managers of properly function- ing American Chambers of Commerce, each one expert in his field; and four- teen executives of outstanding Ameri- can trade associations, each one a suc- cess in his line, will be gathered at Northwestern university for the pur- pose of giving an intensive two week's course in the fundamental principles affecting business men's organizations, starting August 16, and wiil point to- ward a goal of greater efficiency in all business life, according to an an- nouncement made this week over The Chicago Daily News radio by John N. VanderVries, of Winnetka who is sec- retary of the organization and who is prominent in the Chamber of Com- merce, U. S. A. Mr. VanderVries indicated that the gathering of these trade executives at Northwestern is in line with the American policy of thorough training for all persons who are closely funct- ioning in the field. "During the past year, eight Brit- ish workers, under the sponsorship of the London Daily Mail, spent a month in the United States where they trav- eled five thousand miles to learn and to take home with them the secret of prosperity in American business," he said in explaining the close relation- ship between business and trade or- ganizations. "Among the answers which they took back to England with them was the one which emphasized the prominent part played in Ameri- can business life by business men's organizations. They found, to their amazement, in these organizations the greatest willingness on the part of members to discuss with each other common problems and to furnish to each other valuable facts relative to the business in which they are mut- ually interested. Brings Remarkable Growth "This growth of American business organizations, especially during the last few decades, has been one of the most marked developments of Ameri- can economic life," continued the speaker. "American business leaders themselves have been astonished at Attention!! Your home may need Re-roofing and during these summer months is the best time. We apply SLATE--ASBESTOS ASPHALT Wm. L.

The formation of the School for Commercial Executives at Northwest- ern university was mentioned as a dis- tinct step in this development and then Mr. VanderVries spoke of the through courses in various lines which are to be given this year at the school, say- ing in part the following: "The economists who will be on the school's faculty this year will touch on such subjects as present day mar- keting problems, marketing and dis- tribution, public finance and taxation, social problems of the community, in- dustrial development of the United States, and accounting and financial analysis, for the purpose of develop- ing sound economic thinking on the part of those who are selected to lead groups of business men. The thirty- eight managers of organizations of the two types mentioned will discuss struc- ture, program of work, membership, finance, meetings and committee man- agement, publicity, conventions, com- mercial and industrial activities, assem- blage and use of statistics, exscutive management, industrial research, trade extension, cost accounting,--ev:ry one of which is a vital problem in business men's organizations." The Chamber of Commerce expert said that forty-six states were repre- sented on the enrollment of the school at Northwestern during the last five years, making it, therefore, a "truly national organization" have had representatives at the school. He stated also that the enrollment this year bids fair to exceed that of any previous year and that a most success- ful meeting is promised.
