Better Business Bureau, read to the Chamber of Commerce today by Secretary Frank A. Boyle. It should be held for a reasonable time, however, in case the shipper should send his agent for it. For several years throughout the country merchandise has flooded the mails, being sent out to indi- viduals without orders. In many instances it has been kept, although — unwillingly. ! Bureau Exposes Scheme | The Boston Bureau exposed the scheme in the following letter, headed “Blind Man's ‘Bluff'—the unorganized merchandise scheme”: “Citizens of Greater Boston as well as throughout the United States are receiving unordered mer- chandise through the mails.

SENIOR HOOP SQUADS BEAT JUNIOR CAGERS In the second inter-class basket- ball games staged at the High School gym Tuesday night, the Senior boys and girls won from the Juniors in hotly contested | games. The boys won 27 to 11 in a ragged game in which both teams committed many fouls, while the Senior girls emerged on the long end of a 36-31 score. Brandt, at right forward and Lloyd Bayers, center, were high scorers for the Seniors with 10 points eacl. Messer, left forward, accounted for four, Berggren two and Lagergren one point. Gerritzen led .the Junior cagers with five points. Rodenberg, Nel- son and White scored two each. Elsie Jensen did some clever | shooting for the Senior girls, chalk- ing up 34 out of the 36 scored. Lena Jackson was high for the Juniors with 23 points. M’NARY INTRODUCES MEASURE CREATING HIGHWAY COMMISSION Authorizing creation of a com- mission for the study of the con- struction of the proposed interna- tional highway, a bill was intro- duced in the Senate on October 3, by Senator McNary, Oregon. It was referred to the Committee on Agriculture and Forestry. The measure differs in some re- spects from that recently intro- | duced by Delegate Sutherland in the lower House of Congress. It provides for three members instead of two, and prohibits them from receiving additional compensation. As provided in the House bill, it! designates one member shall be an official of the Interior Depart- ment, one the President of the Al- aska Road Commission, and adds a third to be an official of the De- partment of Agriculture who shall be designated by the Secretary of Agriculture, —— .

If you don’t want the merchandise do not use it, but lay it away in a safe place for a reasonable time in case the shipper should send his agent for it. The best way to break up this annoying practice is to make it unprofitable by not patroniz- ing it.” LT Passes Resolution The Chamber today passed a resolution endorsing Delegate Sutherland’s bill secking to create a commission to study the feasi- bility of the International Highway project, connecting Alaska with Canada and the United States.
