RESOLUTION DEFEATED
From the beginning, the resolution to permit business men to retain their membership in the Rotary Club after changing their business or residence, was defeated at the business session here today.
The debate which preceded action on the resolution, consumed the greater part of today's session. The resolution to make past presidents Rotarians-at-large for life was opposed by five past presidents.
One hundred and seventy-seven trade-sectional luncheons, or round-table discussions were held at the noon hour today. At these luncheons, members of each trade and profession met at separate tables to discuss problems in their respective lines. Ideas were exchanged and success and reverses in business explained so that others might profit by these experiences. The luncheon.  On a vein held at practically every hotel and eating house in the city. To-night a dinner was given to the international officers, district governors and past presidents, who later, with the other delegates, attended a musical festival given by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and a part of the May festival chorus.
