Holcomb were dis cussed. CiceRh In connection also with the building | of. “Military Highway,” it. was decided that the Chamber of Commerce should put in a claim to be considered fof the $100 prize that was offered last year by the Norwich society in New York for the accomplishment that could be considered of the greatest; benefit to Norwich. G This was the monthly meeting of the. directors held in the Chamber of Commerce building with President Frederic W. Cary presiding. ° The matter of road discussion also brought up the condition of Laurel Hill avenue from Walnut street to the city line ‘and of the Taftville road from Mulholland Hill to North Main street. and it was voted that the city be asked to repair the and keep in good _shape these two stretches of road in view of the constantly increasing travel that will use them with the opening of “Military Highway.” It was reported that the housing| situation in Norwich continued to be! a serious question and that there were | practically no tenements or dwellings | availble to rent in this city, so that it| was hoped that public spirited citizens | would take it upon themselves to meet | this situation by the erection.of more awellings. From a repodt received from- the southern end of the county, it was stated that people would be living in tents in Groton and Noank this summer and it could not be fore- casted what would be the situation by the time winter arrived. 4 The directors voted to pay_the $5i prize to Frank L. Wheeler of Norwich Town as first prize for New London county apples shown at the Pomolog- ical meeting in Hartford last Febru- ary. Freasurer Arthur L.

Aside from giving attention to- the regular duties of the office, your secre- tary wishes to report that the Cham- ber of Commerce has been extremely busy during the time that has inter- vened since the last meeting of ‘the board. | March 16th a special committee of the chamber entertained the board of trustees of the state farm for women at the Wauregan hstel, at which time a noonday luncheon was served to come fourteen of the committee and their guests. The party later took an automobile ride through the principal | residential sections of Norwich and several prospective sites for said in- stitution were shown the board. At a subsequent date the chairman of the board, Prof. William B. Bailey, took the matter up i e by let- ter, requesting a second meeting with the committee, all of which was ar- ranged. Prof. Bailey very clearly and xplained the position of his| board in relation to sites, commending the manner in which the committee of the Norwich chamber had handied the subject, and at that time gave us to understand that his judgment favored |- the site at Ea Since the March meeting your sec- retary has been appointed assistant director of war savings in New Lon- don county. This requires a great amount of orzanization work and cor- respondence, it being necessary to keep in touch with at least fourteen of the towns in New London county through | their chairmen, to help organize a state iampaign which is to be launched early in June. arch 22d State Highway Commis- sioner C. J. Bennett accepted our in- vitation to come before the open meeting of the Chamber of Commercey coming to Norwich upon that day and accompanying a special committee of the chamber, together with the presi- dent and secretary, over the Nornich- Groton highway, after which the com-( missioner attended the open meeting and listened to the evidence which had been accumulated by the chamber and presented at this time. On April 1st we received a lettet from the com- missioner stating that he had decided that it Wwas a necessity that this road be built and that the work would be started and pushed to rapid comple- tion. T am informed by the commis- sioner .that the contract has been let and the contractor is now on the job. Because of correspondence between this office and the Norwich-New York Propeller company we became a quainted with the Kay ~Steamship company of New York city, resulting in the latter company placing the Eu- gene C. Hart on the Norwich line. A Zreat deal of time has been taken up with getting this company _started, several meetings of the various ou- reaus have been held, at which Cap- tain Kay, president of the Kay Steam- ship company, attended, and requested assistance of the Chamber of Com- merce in securing a suitable terminal in Norwich. He stated that he had secured a terminal in New York and felt it was our duty to assist in this matter in Norwich. Matter was taken up through a special committee of the chamber and has been worked out to a happy conclusion, Your secretaty took up with the sec- retary of the New London Chamber of Commerce the need of hif" organization co-operating with the Kay Steamship company and sccuring independent docking privileges in that city, all of which we have been assured will be at- tended to. The chamber, through the retail merchants' bureau, has secured direct telephone service between Norwich and the submarine base. This was made necessary becaues of the great delays in getting toll line connection through the New London exchange, in which the base is located. The service the money, $210, has been raised by the bureau to pay for the same for one year. At the suggestion of the president, ‘we have furnished five copies of the Norwich City Directory to the follow- ing firms, located in or near New London: U. S. submarine base, siate pier, U.
