Branching out into lines never before attempted by any other civic ceMratlon. the Portland Row JVftlval plana to make the fourth annual celebration next June of international importance. Although . much publicity work lias been done abroad by special delegates. Portland citlf n who have toured various parts of the Old World, no effort has heretofore been made to ftct other nations to send official representatives here. This move ment is to be initiated throuph the various consulates located here. Within the next two or three weeks rtiers will be directed to the consular office in Portland requiting that the government these ng. nta represent make official recognition of the great floral carnival held here each year and furthermore, it will be urged that three various nations give credential to their own representatives who may be in the Vnlted States next year to pay their com pliments to the "City of Roses" during the Festival. Several of the consular agents hare already auggest.d that this would be the best manner of engaging the attention and Interest of the countries they rep resent. Feeling that this will be the best way to spread the Roso Festival gospel In other, lands, the management will direct letters to the 30 or more consulates in 1 this city urging that official recognition j tie made in some substantial manner of : th next Portland floral fete. We are now out of our rwaddling clothem" eald President Hoyt last night, "and It is time we asked other countries beside our own to assist in our yearly carnival event. It 13 our intention to reach all of the foreign countries that have agencies here and try if possible to l-.ave them enter national floats in one or more of the big pageants next year. "Among the nations we expect to ap peal to will be Austria. Great Britain. ; fhill. China. Costa Rica. Denmark, France. Germany, Honduras, Italy, i Japan. Mexico. Holland. Norway, Xica i ragua. Peru. Belgium, Sweden, Russia and Switzerland. "Portland hes not paid much attention in the past toward showing special ln . lerest in bringing about a closer alliance ; between these nation and our own, but there Is no reason why the Rose Festival should not be the easiest medium to serve 'this purpose. Many nations Joined hand : -with San Francisco in making the Por--tola the big success that it was and ' there la no reason why Portland, one of the foremost pcrrts on the American con ' tlnent. sho'tld not be tendered the same courtesy. Every flE that files in the Southern city 1 seen here and inasmuch as our Festival Is original, distinctive and progressive, we should receive the same recognition." The campaign for funds for next year is meeting with fine success. Most of the former contributors have appreciated the advertising value of such an exhibition and have Increased their pledges accord ingly. The big department stores, which will of course give heavily, have been canvassed and have promised to bring the matter up at the next meeting of the Ketail Merchants' Association. At this cession the other stores and merchants will gauga . their donations according to what the big houses contribute. The banks and financial interests have been asked to ake tip and decide upon the amount of the subscriptions they, feel they can make this year and the soliciting committees are preparing to Invade the wholesale district the coming week. This year's campaign Is to be a thorough and therefore protracted one. The con tributions so far pledged indicate that the total fund should not fall far below the JNAOOO which la the high-water mark et. The prevailing era of prosperity in all lines is being reflected in the offer ings of the public in support of the Rose Festival. The management, through President Hoyt. saya the only question as to how magnificent and imposing a show may be given depends upon the financial backing that is accorded. Inas much as the Rose Festival In this city is to be the only important celebration on the Pacific Coast next Summer, the in ducement to "loosen up" and contribute generously is stronger than ever.
