DAYLIGHT SAVING CON
VENTION
SESSION
Five Thousand Delegates Meet in New York City To See
If They Can Turn the Clock Back Father Time An Hour
a Day in Summer They Believe They Can Save the
Country $100,000,000 a Year.
BY GEORGE MARTIN
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
New York, Jan. 30. Five thousand
delegates to the National Daylight
Saving convention came here from all
over the country today to see if they
can't get Father Time to shoulder his
scythe and walk back sixty minutes
the first of May.
It will be explained to the old man
that he can run and catch up with the
lost hour again September 30. The
idea, he will be informed, is to make
use of the added hour of daylight we
have between those dates. We can
get up an hour earlier, go to work an
hour earlier, quit an hour earlier and
have an extra hour of daylight to
have a good time in.
It may be news to a lot of folks to
'known that in Cleveland and Dayton,
Ohio, this daylight saving scheme has
been in force for two years. Every
body knows it was used throughout
Europe and in Canada last year with
good results.
The old man with the scythe will
havo plenty of evidence presented to
convince him. Borough President
Marks of this city will introduce each
of the speakers, among whom will be
Representative William P. Borland of
Missouri, whose bill making daylight
saving a national law, is now ponding
in congress.
Then President Marks will intro
duce representatives of practically ev
ery civic organisation in this country
and delegates from England, Scotland,
Russia, Poland, Holland and Canada.
Robert Garland of Pittsburg will
speak for the chambers of commerce,
ex-Governor John K. Tener for the
health experts who want more day
light to fight the white plague; John
Mitchel for the industrial commission,
i Mayor Mitchel, Harriett Stanton
; Blatch, Arthur Brisbane and others
also will speak.
Columbia University's astronomer,
Harold Jacoby, will speak scientifical
ly to the venerable Brentlemen an J T.
I S. Whitchouse, a member of pariia
'nicnt from London will argue with
him. Georgo Ade of the National
lawn Tennis association will speak on
i the added time for recreation afforded
by the plan. S. J. Halle of the Stand
ard Time committee of the Cleveland
Chamber of Commerce will tell h'JW
they like the idea in Ohio.
All the speakers will stress the
point that this plan will save the coun
try $100,000,000 in light and power
expenses during the summer months.
This is expected to knock the old man
off his seat.
