He said that the ten- tative d^te would be -"arch 21st, but he would let the Secretary know further about it. The members agreed with Mr. Rowse, and thought his suggestion very good, and they would be glad to participate in the dinner. After Mr. Rows- left this meeting, it was suggested by some of the members that indefinite Postponement be made on the purchase of the Stevens property.
