HOLDS MEETING

(Continue from Page one)

Among the communications which

Secretary J. I. Brusel read was one

asking the Chamber's support for armories, for Ve Indiana National Guard. The bowrd took the position that it could .support such a law as long as It provides the same privileges for other counties as well a Marion coutny, Avhere the bill originated. A f1 . Wilt New Member.

Secretary Brusel stated that he had been approached by representatives of the Freight Agents' association of the Calumet region for permission to use ' one of the rooms bi-weekly for an hour or so for a meeting. His remarks gave rise to the nuggestion that the freight agents should all be members of the Chamber, or at least the Hammond contingent should affiliate, but it was finally left to Mr. Brusel to negotiate with the organisation. 5 In the proposed organization of the

growers and butchers of Hammond, the directors saw another opportunity to

increase the membership materially with a substantial and representative

class of people if they could be Induced to join. A3 members of the Chamber

they could hold their meetings in its rooms. Auditor-Elect Ed. Simon came In for a little good natured heckling when the directors learned that he desired permission to use the'tiame Chamber of Commerce for one of his best cigars. The permission was granted. In one of th proposed utilities laws, which provide that legislating arising under this law would have to be commenced in Indianapolis, the board saw another effort on. the' part of the Indianapolis politicians to centralize business as much in Marion county as possible, and the board went on record against this clause in the bill. The delinquents' home in the county infirmary as proposed by Truant Officer Patrick Reilley is to be looked after by the public morals committee.
