ternoon to consider matters of import ' I ance relative to the routine of affairs of the organization and the details of the membership campaign now under way. Several legislative matters will also be considered. Preparatory work for the membership campaign is progressing steadily, according to Frank P. Chaffee, secretary. Mrs. A. W. Roach, who will command the 10 teams of the women's division, reports that she has about completed securing the captains for her teams and th captains are busy filling their quota of team workers. Pledges For Three Years. The membership pledges in this campaign will be for three years. After careful consideration, it was thought best to follow this rule which prevails in nearly all similar Organizations throughout the country. "It not only assures a continuity of membership interest, but also provides a continuity of financial support necessary to carry out any well denned program of work," said Mr. Chaffee. "Furthermore, it obviates the necessity for an annual membership campaign.'! John E. Peltz holds 'the distinction of being the first person to voluntarily sign up for membership for the three year period. He called at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters Wed-' . .9 . .1 : ) I 1 0 4 1 , ' nesday and signed the pledge for three years. "Mr. Peltz, in giving evidence of this real community spirit which the Chamber of Commerce hopes to . develop should encourage many others to do likewise," in the opinion of Mr. Chaffee. "It will save the canvassing teams just that much work where those who are interested come forward voluntarily and sign up for membership. "The growth of a city depends on several things. One is confidence. The right kind of confidence is to come forward and join with the public-spirited men and women who are trying to build a real community organization for Richmond."
