The list approved by the membership committee, of which Thomas, V. Gould Is chairman, was elected by the executive committee at an. enthusiastic session.

This makes the membership 3,756 the largest the Chamber has had. There is a real race on in the Chamber for the honor of getting the largest number of new members and the board displaying the honor roll attracts attention. Ralph Jonas has forged ahead of all others, overtaking James Sherlock Davis, at one time president of the Chamber, who held a large lead for months. Ansel P. Verity has come up neck and neck with Mr.

Davis. The honor roll shows the following record at present: Ralph Jonas. 80; James Sherlock Davis, 77; Ansel P. Verity, 77; Charles L. Schenck, 68; Richard W.

Gcslin, 67, and William S. Irish, 64. The activity is proving contagious. During the last ten days Judge Laurence C. Fish and Clarence W.

Spader have each turned In four new applications. The firms who are giving the greatest support to the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce through membership are Jonas Neuhurger, who has two sustaining memberships and eleven individual memberships; the Manufacturers Trust Company, ho has two sustaining memberships and eleven additional memberships; the Brooklyn Union Gas Company, who has one sustaining membership and twelve addi-ttlonal memberships; the Knox Hat Company, who has one sustaining membership and eleven additional memberships; Abraham Straus, who has one sustaining membership and eleven additional memberships; the Brooklyn Trust Company, who has one sustaining and eleven additional memberships.
