Mr. Wells told of the chamber’'s de- cision, after careful consideration, bring The American City Bureau to Norwich for the purpose of reorganiza- tion. They are here. now, said Mr. Wells. Our excuse, he said, is that they are going to. give Norwich a chamber Miss Helen T. Stockwell and Miss Ann|of commerce that Norwich will be proud |Dusiness men are going to organize their of. Explains the Campaign. Chairman Wells then ' introduced as the first speaker of the evening, Robert A. Crosby of the American City Bureau, who is manager for the local eampaign. Mr. Crosby made a very interesting ten minute address in which he outlined the plans and programme which The American City Bureau is to carry out in Norwich. The successful chamber of commerce, he sald, depends first on a working membership and secondly on an adequate income. The day has gone by Wwhen serious minded men are going to content themselves with passing resolu- tions. Your working membership comes through the maintenance of a demo- cratic organization. Mr. Crosby went on to tell of the re- cent resignation of the entire board of officers of the chamber. After the mem- bership campaign each member, he said, will receive a ballot. containing the name of every member in the chamber. He will be asked to vote for ‘twelve or more of the members, depending on the size of the board of directors. The bal- lots will then be mailed to the chamber headquarters. From these ballots some twenty names, those receiving the greatest number of votes. will he pick- ed. These names will be incorporated on another ballot which will be sent to cach member and the members will be asked to make their final selecfon of the men to serve on their board. Mr. Crosby outlined other plans which will be carried out and in concluding his talk said The American City Bureau has come to Norwich to reorganize the chamber of commerce. We know we can deliver the goods. Results in Waterbury. Thomas F. Moore, secretary of the chamber of commerce of Waterbury was the next speaker. Mr. Moore spoke on Progress in Waterbury. He opened his talk by telling of the re-organiza- tion of the Waterbury Chamber in 1918 by The American City Bureau. Water- bury, he said. is an industrial eity with 100,000 population and the foreign popu- lation is possibly 60 per cent. One of the first things that Waterbury under- took was the beautification of: the city. During the first year they distributed free 10,000 shrubs, 5.000 trees, grass seed, etc., and during the second vear distributed free a like amount of shrubs, trees, etc. In every. section of .the city one can now find a little patch of green, a tree or shrub in front of the houses The Waterbury chamher has conducted a very successful housing campaign whereby many were induced to build. Other accomplishments of the - Water- bury chamber can be summed up as fol- lows: Secured a modern sewage: disposal system. a comfort station which is about | to be built, a wholesale public market where over $2.000.000 worth of farm products changed hands last year and even a greater amount this year; con- ducted a cost of living survey in 1919 conducted a most suceessful clean-up campaign through the schools, ete., and many other projects. How They Do It | was in Massachusetts, | delivi by Lee H. Brow. secretary the chamber of commerce of Westfield Mass. In defining’ the chamber of com meree, Mr. Brow said: “The chamber of commerce is an organized expression of: the people in the .interests. of the com- {munity.” In closing Mr. Brow said: Aside from the church, I don't believe any organization can accomplish as much for the community as a modern chamber of commerce. Hon, N I, and president Chamber of Commerce, was next intro- duced by Mr. Wells. Mr. David was passing through Norwich Tuesday morn. ing and called on Secretary Crandall. He decided to stay in Norwich over night and kindly consented to speak briefly to the gathering Tuesday.evening. Mr. David said that when The Ameri- can City Bureau went into Elizabeth to organize the chamber there thev in- creased the membership from 200 to 360 He said The American City Bureau was the best investment the city of Eliza- beth ever made. There are men who of the Elizabeth topic of the interesting address | Abe I.

The final speaker of the evening was David C. Addle, former assistant sec- retary of the chamber of commerce at Minneapolis Minn. His topic was The Chamber of Commerce, a Peculiar Insti- tution. In part he spoke as follows: Norwich, like all other cities, needs cooperation. Nothing can be accomplish- ed unléss men work together. The cham- ber of commerce is a distinctive orgaif- zation, found only in America. It is an opportunity to think and live for Nor- Just to the extent you do that, you will be successful. Organization through the chamber of commerce is necessary because Wwe are living in an age when tremendous things are being dome. We must visualize the world that is to be. The conditions chal- lenge the faith of men. The molding of opinion counts tre- mendously. The nineteenth century was an age of business for business’ sake. The 20th century will be an age when “Diamond Dyes” Don’t Spoil or Streak your Material in a2 Poor Dye Each package of “Diamond Dyes” contains directions so simple that any ‘woman can diamond-dye a new, rich, fadeless color into worn, shabby gar- ments, draperies, coverings, Whether Wwool, silk, linen, cotton or mixed goods.

The old policy of “dog -eat dog” has had its day. We have gradually come to the principle of coop- eration in the interest of all. Just as you serve your city, so are you the man Nerwich has the right to expect vou to be. Leaders are born in service. Norwich is bigger than any of us. Our land and business values are worth something ,not because of any- thing we have done, but because of what somebody else before us has dome. Our city challenges us to get into the game with all our strength. There are three main lines of endea- vor I want to touch upon. The first is business activities. Isolation is impos- sible nowadays.

Under the oid plan, nominations were made by jcommittees, committees wére named by the president alone or in con- sultation with the secretary. and quite often the program of work, if there was one, was built by one or two individuals. Naturally thjs system led to “one man" control or trol by a small group. The member who felt that he was one of the obscure majority was too indifferent to come out of the background and pres- ently after joining the organization, he substantially withdrew, and in a year or two stopped paying dues.
