Invitational' Conference
For Consuimers Closes
With Sutcliffe Speech
The three-day invitational Confer-
ence on Consumer Credit has proved
to be a "very marked success," Prof.
Robert W. Kelso, director of the In-
stitute of Public and Social Admin-
istration, declared after the conclu-
sion of the Conference yesterday af-
ternoon in the Union.
There was a commendable clash of
opinion at most of the sessions of
the conference, he commented, as all
phases of thought on consumer credit
were displayed by men from every
part of the nation meeting on neu-
tral ground provided by the Univer-
sity.
Seeks Aid For Consumer
The Conference, the first which has
ever recognized and treated the con-
sumer as a distinct and unique topic,
said Professor Kelso, was arranged
to encourage other schools and uni-
versities to consider the problem of
how to protect and otherwise aid the
consumer and supplier of credit.
By demonstrating to all the feasi-
bility and the importance of serious
and searching consideration of this
problem, he explained, the sponsors
of the Conference-the School of
Business Administration and the In-
stitute of Public and Social Adminis-
tration-hone to nrovide stimulus to
