Mr. Wellott made a good impression upon the gathering as he outlimed brief- Iy what it is intended to do.’ He said that it is not now the timé for everyone to stand back and ask ‘the question “What are they going to do?” but to put the "question this way,:“What Are We Going to Do?’ An utely dem- ocratic organization is to ‘be built up: By vote of the entire membership twen- ty-four names will be selécted on which to vote for twelve directors. When these directors are chosen they will elect the officers. Onme of the early things to be done hlso will be to select about 25 men who will be asked fto ‘make up groups from the membership -for the consideration of the needs of Norwich. Some things, such as those upon Wwhich the public is already pretty well inform- ed, will make up what will be called the major programme.: Other things Which will call for public meetings and public discussions will make another section of the chamber of commerce programme. || The members will be asked to indicate the things in which they_h: n c. ial interest and . when formed it will bethe éffo: on them men who are particularly con- cerned with the work of the committee to which they ' are appointed. This will obviate the chances of “deadwood” on committees. Then stop. “crabbing,” concluded Mr. Wellott, and 'We can build up a success- ful organization.,’. . . ° % The meeting ad)ollmg&gsfi:bout 9.30, allowing Mr. Crosby and > M. . time to make their. tra York. store, the use of which Judge John M.
