IN AND ABOUT THE CITY
■-+—
TO SELECT HOTEL NAME
AT MEETING TOMORROW
Directors at Hotel Company to Meat
Friday Afternoon at 3 O’clock.
Concord's new hotel will be with
out a name for ‘only one more day.
Directors of the hotel company will'
meet at the Merchants and Manufac
turers Club tomorrow afternoon ah
3 .o’clock to choose the name they
like the best and their action is ex
pected to be final.
At a meeting of the stockholders
of the company several weeks ago it
was understood that the name “Hotel.
Concord"‘had been chosen. After the
meeting, however, it developed that
the matter had been left open at the
request of several stockholders and
directors who were under the impres
sion that a promise was made during
the campaign to raise money for a
hotel that the public woiffd be al
lowed to express its preference before
a name was chosen.
Since that time various names have
been suggested including “The Steph
en Cabarrus,” "Hotel Cannon.” "Ho
tel Wilson," “The Pioneer.” “The
Cragihead,” “The Patton,” “The Ca
barrus,” “Tre Hezekiah Balch,” and
others.
Members of several women’s organ
izations in the city notified, directors
of the company that they wanted to
offer suggestions in names and they
were heard at a public meeting Tues
day night. At the meeting
men for the organizations suggested
that historical names be chosen, but
individually two women sponsored the
name “Hotel Concord."
In discussing the meeting to- be
held tomorrow afternoon. President
Patterson of the hotel company, ex
plained that definite action in the
matter should be taken at once.
“We have onr linen and silver to
buy.” he explained, "and it is neces
sary that we select the name so this
equipment can be properly marked
w-th 'he name of the hotel. We do
not want to have the hotel ready for
occupancy and then have to postpone
the formal opening because of lack of
equipment.”
Mr. Patterson also explained that
O W. Donnell, secretary and treasur
er cf the William Four Hotel Operat
ing Corporation, which recently'leased
the building, is preparing flow a list
of silver, linen and other equipment
that will be needed in the hotel and
this will be ordered as soon as the
name is chosen.
Mr. Donnell, who plans to actively
manage the hotel for several weeks
after its opening, also will aid the
hotel officials in the purchase of fur
niture and furnishings for the build
ing.

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
FOR MODIFIED VOLSTEAD ACT
National Secretary of the Episcopal
Church Temperance Society De
clares Prohibition Law a Mistake.
New York, Feb. 3. —Rev. Dr. James
Empringtiam, national secretary of the
ehurch temperance society of the Epis
copal (Church, said today the society,
■ which worked for the passage of the
eighteenth amendment, now will work
for modification of the Volstead act
to permit sale of light wines and beer.
Hr. Empringham, who was at one
time superintendent of the anti-na
■ tionwide survey of inhibition enforce
merit, had convinced him that the
Volstead act “had undone—-the tem
perance societies fifty years of edu
cational work against the use of alco
hol.”
Speaking at a meeting of the Epis
copal Clergy of New York, he asserted
that “prohibition had increased drink
ing among young people; discouraged
the consumption of wine and beer
and increased the demand for dis
tilled liquors which today are mostly
poisonous; had brought about disre
spect for all laws and is das legisla
tion, discriminating in favor of the
rich.”
The national secretary said he had
made a report of his findings to the
Episcopal Church of New York over
the protest of Wayne B. Wheeler,
general ‘counsel of the AntySaloon
League, who requested him by tele
phone, telegraph and by mail to with
hold it, saying that it “would show
that prohibition had failed.”
