RORWICH BULLETIN, ‘FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3,.'18_20' Headed For Better Chamber of Commerce There is am inescapable atmosphere of bustle and activity about the Chamber of Commerce headquarters recently opened in the Thayer building on Franklin squage. For the next month it is evident thdt this office will be the busiest in the city. Here the machinery of the campaign organization will be built up and many meetings held for the con- sideration of plans and policies in con- nection with the enlarged activities of the reorganfzed Chamber of Commerce. “The goal of 500 members for the en- larged organization is & minimum,” said paign Director Robert A. Crosby on TRursday, and if I mistake not with the spirit of the citizens in this city, we will go far beyond that figure and Nor- wich will have a civic-commercial body second to nene in New England.

When the‘campaign is finished- your citizens will have an organization bas- ed on lasting principles with the broad- est outlook and prepared to work all the time for the advance ment of the best interests of the city. Its record in.the past has been good ; it needs more mem- bers to accomplish greater good. Our campaign will not be of the brass band variety but will be a campaign based on practical, business methods which have proven so successful in. every oth- er city where the Ameritan City Bureau has done similar work. Programme for. Norwich. “Our programme for Norwich, stated briefly;”” said Mr. Crosby, “is as follows: For the next three ‘weeks we will carry on an educational campaign by means of public meetings, through addresses In churches and before organizations, thoughr the press, letters and campaign literature. This phase of the campaign is, designed to acquaint every.man and woman in Norwich with the ideals, aims and possibilities of a modern Chamber of Commerce. This period will be followed by an intensive drive which will begin another four week period of the campaign called the “Instaltation Phase.” This second period will be under the direc- tion of anotler member of the American City Burau staff who, will' conduct the collection of -dues, clection of directors and -officers and will .also formulate a “programme of work” and the organiza- tion of the “members' forum.” Once the_installatiop period has been completed and the newly _organized Chamber of Comimerce iz ~ operating smoothly, the American City Bureau will stand back of it- with the experience gained in seven years' intensive study and work in the civic-commercial or- ganization field.
