The Bulletin Of The Commercial Law League Of America Vol 23

Excerpt from The Bulletin of the Commercial Law League of America, Vol. 23: January, 1918 The decision as to time and place was unanimous, on a final vote. The only real competitor for the place was Minneapolis, whose claims were presented by former President Henry Deutsch of Minneapolis and the Secretary of the Minneapolis Convention Bureau. Chicago was selected as the place notwithstanding the fact that Chicago had not invited the Convention either through its Chamber of Commerce or through the action of League men. The decision will be as much of a surprise to Chicago League members as it will be to the members generally. Even the La Salle Hotel was ignorant of the fact that the Committee was meeting in Chicago and that Chicago was being considered, until the Committee had substantially agreed that Chicago was the proper place this year. The hotel management was then called in to the meeting with a view to final arrangements. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
