Book Description
Excerpt from Municipal Advance: Extracts From Papers on Various Municipal Services Read at the First International Municipal Congress and Exposition, Chicago, September 18-30, 1911 The Congress was opened Sept. 18 by addresses by Mayor Carter H. Harrison, of Chicago; Mayor John F. Fitzgerald, of Boston; Harry A. Wheeler, president of The Chicago Association of Commerce; John Macvicar, of Des Moines, commissioner general of the Exposition; John M. Ewen, chairman of the Congress and Exposition. There was read to the Congress a letter of greeting from the Rt. Hon. T. Vezey Strong, lord mayor of the city of London, and the Congress was briefly addressed in Spanish by Rogelio E. Pardo, delegate from Costa Rica. In his letter the lord mayor said: I would say, as representing a very ancient city, of which I am the 722d mayor or lord mayor, that we trust the Congress and Exposition will have far-reaching and useful results, and that we shall watch its progress with deep interest, feeling a certainty that, old though we may be, we have yet much to learn in very many directions in which we can be of benefit to the community around us. If, as is highly probable, your Congress gives us a lead in these matters, we shall neither be too proud nor too reserved to express our obligation and gratitude. The Congress was so organized in sessions as to group related interests for the discussion of fixed topics. The submission of carefully prepared papers was the rule of procedure. Herewith follow, in formal style and more or less condensed to promote their availability, the papers and debates of the Congress. All can be read with much profit by laymen as well as by munici pal specialists. A feature of the program of the Congress was stereopticon talks on foreign municipal services by William Hudson Harper, who had been com missioned to visit Great Britain and Europe for this purpose by The Chicago Association of Commerce. Wm. Reiss, vice-president of Local Division and Chairman of Local (convention Bureau) Committee. The Chicago Association of Commerce.
