Following the election of officers, President Stephan was escorted to the chair and expressed his apprecia- tion to the members of the board of governors on his election to leader- ship of the organization. He paid tribute to the “enviable rec- ord” made by Mr. King, whom he suc- ceeds. “Ever - since the Merchants’ and Manufacturers' Association was or-j| ganised and prbved its value to the business life of this community, I have crystllized my interest in busi- ness matters in this association,” said President Stephan. “It is my belief that our plan of section or group meetings is fundamentally - correct. Each group has problems of its own that can only be solved by themselves. These groups can and do promots ethical understanding, and when they affect business in eral we have our board of governors made up of the head of each line of trade to ob- tain éoncrete expressions as to the position of business on business. mat- ters. 3 “In civic matters T am happy to ob- serve that we do not involve our- selves except where business may be concerned. . “As'to the future, let deeds rather than words assert themselves.” One of the first acts of the board of governors in the new administration ‘was to indorse the protést the former president made in the peremptpory discharge of employes. and a commit- tes, consisting of Philip King, chair- man; George S.
