N.B.CREDIT BUREAU T0 CLOSE ITS DOORS Lack of Support Given as Reason —0ther Propositions Rejected Just as soon as it can be ranged legally the New Britain Credit Rating bureau will pass out of existence. It was voted at a meet- ing of the stockholders and direc-| lwrs yesterday afternoon to take steps for its immediate dissolution. That the bureau would pass out of the picture has been expected ever since this action was recom- mended by the directors several| weeks ago. That it has not been a success for some time has been a matter of common Kknowledge. At the meeting yesterday it was pointed out that there was not -nough interest and financial sup- port to warrant continuing in busi- uess. A number of the stockholders lesired to have the bureau con tinue, but there was reluctance to assume financial responsibility. The directors unanimously favored clos- n3, and this recommendation final- ly was accepted. Two alternatives were discussed and rejected. One was a proposition for the bureau to operate on a smaller scale in the vifice of Attorney David L. Nair. The other ‘was the desire of Secre- tary Ralph H. Benson of the Cham- ber of Commerce to take the bu- tea under his wing and operate Jt irom the chamber offices. Fred O. Rackliffe, president, and 8. M. Da-| vidson, one of the directors, both of whom are directors of the Chamber of Commerce, did not favor either proposition, believing that it had been definitely proven that the orchants would not support a credit bureau here, 50 both Proposi- tions were rejected. The burcau has operated in this city for several years. Many of its members have availed themselves its service and in a number of cases men who were hopelessly en- tangled in debt were helped out of their difficulties. In other cascs merchants were protected from opening charge accounts for “dead Several concerns were in- vy the bureau during its ignation of Captain founder, the man. ¢ the bureau fell into th rt R.

He says New Britain needs a credit bureau and has reached the point | | where it will be expensive to the | merchants to try and continue with- ‘out one. In view of the attitude of | some of the opponents to the pro- position he will not force the issue. Commenting upon the fact that he has received a number of telephone calls from merchant members of the chamber asking that he take up the proposition of a credit bureau branch of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Benson said this morning that he | was powerless to do anything now | unless the members officially request | it. “Of course” he added, “if a| group of those men who want a| credit bureau branch of the cham-| ‘bor got together and submitted a| | basis upon which to work, I would | | be forced to take it before the board of directors.” | ‘The bureau was open today al- though it has practically ceased to function.

Well 1t be, for the advertiser wants to know how many people will read his ad in order that he might estimate Just what the proportions in his turn over in stock will be. The New Britain Herald has a circulation of over 14,000 and the circulation department is willing to prove this fact. The number of Heralds sold daily is rapidly ap- proaching the 15,000 goal which is a testimonial to its standing in the community. The Herald is doing every- thing possible to increase Teader interest by printing the news of .the city, state, United States, and the world, and the rapid increase in circulation is a testimonial to the fact that this endeavor is appreciated. The New Britain Herald is a member of the Audit Bureau of Circulations, a national group of trained news- paper circulation auditors whose business in life is to check up on circulations of newspaper that belong to this organization, Advertisers all over the country ask first, if the paper they are thinking of placing an advertisement in is a member of the Audit Bureau of Circulations, for they know that there can be no equivocation by an A.B.C. newspaper. In short, they know what they are getting, and in the case of the New Britain Herald, they are get- ting over 14,000 printed and distributed daily
