D. Bradlee Rich represented the Boston Real Estate Exchange at a hearing before the legislative committee on municipal finance. The question before this committee was the granting of the request of the mayor for increasing the tax rate of the city. Mr. Rich made a very forcible presentation of the question, and it is no little honor to represent in such a capacity an organization as important as the Boston Real Estate Exchange. We understand that Mr. Rich is vice-president of the national organization, and may be compelled to attend their annual meeting at the time of the class> reunion. While we know that at heart he would like to resign even this very august position, it will be necessary for business reasons to place it ahead of the reunion. The committee is endeavoring to get the date of the conference changed, as: we expect one hundred per cent attendance at Hanover in June.
Secretary, Natt W. Emerson, 10 State St., Boston
