Thfe address, entitled "America's Toung on the March," has to do the organization and development of the4.Jace movement, and is published below because of its general interest: Twenty-three years ago in the city St, Louis, Missouri, an idea "was born in the mhWof a young man "called Henry Glessenbier. At our National Convention in Columbus, 'Ohio In 1935, we characterized that dea. as the finest instrumentality for "the accomplishment of the greatest rgood for the greatest number the Avortd lias thus far We were rank to admit at that time that the -idea was largely potential and that much work remained to translate that potentiality into significant reality.

Fraternal Week is an annual observance during which fraternal: members throughout the country hold special lodge meetings, parades, pageants, drills, and juvenile member-demonstrations.

The institution for a great many years has provided not; only necessary life insurance protection, but has gone far to relieve bublic distress and ill health through building and maintaining fine sani-toria and homes for the juvenile and: aged. It has contributed much to the community social life through the years by reason of its unique lodge system which is a medium for developing better understanding between individuals. Approximately one in every; 14; persons in this country, adults and children, is a member of a fraternal: benefit society, there being in all. some 8,000,000 members. There stands behind, this vast protective and beneficial activity, approximately $1,000,000,000 of assets.

Tne institution last year had an income of nearly $185,000,000 and the fraternal insurance in force totals about Fraternal Week is being celebrated, in every community and hamlet; in the United States under the auspi ces of the National Fraternal Congress of America in line' with the proclamation by Mrs. Dora' Alexander Talley, President, who is head of the Woodmen Circle, Omaha, Nebraska.

Until 1.931 there were organized and affiliated only eighty-five local junior Chambers of Commerce. Three factors deterred a more rapid growth.

"First: Competition for the interest of young businessmen from luncheon service clubs such as Rotary and Kiwanis which reached their maximum growth in 1927. "Second: Similar competition from "Veterans'; Groups, since most men in the Junior Chamber age group had served in the World War. The fact that at fifteen, when America entered the War, 1 was refused admission to three branches of the service and that this year I pass our maximum age limit, my thirty-sixth birthday, ar-j gues more eloquently than I could otherwise state that that competition no longer exists. "Third: Opposition from Chambers of Commerce, through lack of understanding; to the establishment of Junior Chambers and the extension of the movement. "In 1931, with these obstacles sub stantially removed, there commenced a spectacular growth which still con- tmufess.

Forty Of the fifty-five largest cities in this country are numbered among our af filiates and at least a third of the remainder are organized and in the process of affiliation. The most remarkable feature of this growth is the fact that it is the result of voluntary effort and has been accomplished without the services of a single paid organizer until now Junior Chambers girdle the globe. The United States Junior Chamber if Commerce is' unique. It is the only National organization in this Country which draws its leadership solely from and plans, executes and finances its program solely by young men between twenty-one and thirty-five years of age.

This restricted age-group is sbund and distinctive, in that it continues to breed new leadership and prevents a continuously advancing, control. It is important also to note that it presently represents a new Ameri-can generation.
