TO 17 I DKACH ATTI1 C. TIOIVS AS SI VIVKll. MOTH BAGS congestion conference was held last evening in the chapel of Packer Institute. Several public officials, particularly those directly Interested in the subject of the city's congestion, were present to give their views. The object of the conference was to consider some of the most Important sections of the report of the New York Commission on Congestion of Population.

This commission appointed some time ago by Mayor William J. Qaynor to suggest measures to relieve the present conditions and to prevent future congestion of population and room-crowding throughout the city. Many of Its more important recommendations have already been Introduced as bills In Ihe Slate Legislature, nnd considerable Influence Is being; brought to bear on their passage. Introducing the evening's proceedings Chairman Brown gave a brief review of the relations of society in recent years, particularly in the matter of Individualism and collectivism. Tho latter, he said, Is rapidly taking the place of the former, and by reason of thlB fact congestion has become not a local but a national problem.

Radiating or reflecting light; shedding or having much light; shining; luminous; not. dark." Literally and liguratlvely, is 'not Brooklyn bright? "2. Transmitting light; clear; transparent." Applicable to Bruoklyn. "3. Having qualities that render con-scicuous or attractive, or that affect (he mind as light does the eyo; resplendent with charms; as bright beauty." Superlatively true of Brooklyn in every sense.

"4. Having or displaying a clear, quick intellect; Intelligent; clever; alert; animated; vivacious; also, cheerful; cheery!" Cannot all this be said with modesty ot Brooklyn and ils people? "5. Illustrious; glorious." Brooklyn is proud to respond to this. ''6. Manifest to the mind, as light is to the ey.j8; clear." In civic sense, synonymous of Brooklyn.

"7. Conspicuous in shadx or tone, (it) of brilliant color, (b) ringing; dear." Nothing somber or ttbout Brooklyn. "8. Of woodwork, scraped and cleaned."
