were staking out their grounds the day I was there. Neither is there any evidence of participation 'on the part of other countries. I found the general opinion to be that the exposition will be postponed until 1927. Everything is chaotic and uncertain In my judgment the success of the undertaking will depend on the Interest the government takes in the matter and the amount ot the appropriation congress makes. The last words from the management before I left Philadelphia Tor Washington were, "We expect to huie a definite policy by the 20th of this month, ft is our opinion, however, that the exposition proper witr he postponed until 1927.

but we expect to put on prelude this summer by having a celebration, consisting or pageantry on an elaborate scale for July 4. when the president is expected to deliver an oration. The army and navy. American legion, and governors ot the different states are expected to participate. Thru the summer ot 192G many conventions will bo held in the Coliseum and many ot the world's greatest athletic events will bo held in the new stadium, with a seating capacity of 100,000." I visited Secretary of Commerce.

Hoover at Washington. Ho did not seem over enthusiastic, but indicated that if the exposition should bg postponed until 3927 (and he thought it should) that tho Natiou al commission would recommend an appropriation of $1,000,000, but added that it was a matter for congress to decide. To sum the matter up it is almost certain that if there is to be an exposition of the nation's resources, such as was in the minds of the legislators when our appropriation was made, it will not bo held until 1927, and only then in case the government conies forward with a large appropriation. The management at Philadelphia will ask tor There are so many conflicting interests and cross currents that it is most difficult to make a forecast as to what will happen. would advise that Iowa take no further action until a definite program is determined upon by the Sesquicentennial Exposition commission itself.

"1 want you to intorm the members ot your commission that their work already has caused niauy most favorable comments to reach every department of the state, your broadcasting programs have been heard by high olllcials In other states, and I personally am very much impressed with the contemplated speaking tour of your commissioner in JIarch, and especially impressed with your plans to exhibit where the biggest jnanu facturers assemble in Canada, and New England." "1 will request the executive council for a suitable appropriation io exhibit the best in agriculture bibit. The more 'low a' on the big eastern fair grounds, the better for the whole state. No reason why the whole exhibit cannot be assembled in Davenport and leave this state under the supervision of a joint commission. At the grounds the agriculture exhibit cau have big coordinating sigDS and instruc tors'reterrlng to Davenport's exhibit in Machinery hall, and vice versa.

I am for it and believe Davenport will do much more for Iowa iu general and Davenport in particular by this whole movement than While in Davenport recently Governor Hammill conferred ith the local commissioner relative to a survey be had made last summer for big interests relative to exhibiting at Philadelphia, which survey even back in July showed chaotic conditions.
