W. w. Smith wished TO know the re-
lation between the present organization

organization Intended to divide the
work OF the Board of Trade that Was

upon the work OF the Board of Trade e,
he was in favor of Il. For both TO

Chas- Fox said the one purpose of
the organization WAS to get outside
manufacturers 10 come IN the city aud
locate. the Board of Trade had done
good WORK, but It had many purposes
ana so couldn't do the work of body
organized Tor that one purpose.
Col. Penny wished 10 know what
methods were TO be used TO encourage
manufactures TO locate here.
W. III. kinsey thought the question
would be answered IN 3 different way
by everyone present; but thought i,
would be safe TO let the board of dlrec-
tors work along the line OF the pream-
amble. That the Board of Trade had
done gnod work and the real estate
men wished to help them. in this work
along one line. The way to improve
the real estate business must be reached
through the encouragement of manu-
tacturerS.
Fred Maynard said it seemed to him
that the reason for such . society had
been plainly stated. The reason :he
city is what 1t IS, is due to the fact that
twenty or thirty years ago the city had
some young nlen OF enterpTlse whose
fortunes were yet to be made. Now
there il no reason why that same spirit
shouldn't increase the wealth of The
CITY. We have depended too much on
the furniture business. The city must
have 3 diverAfied industry. You can't
expect men to work for what they have
already. What is needed is NJ organl-
zaton that will work and bring indus.
tries TO TINS city.
John Dunlon agreed heartily with
these sentiments. Ii Is true that We
don't want to boom the city one year
aud let it die. But suppose We had .
tree here. Should We say that, ~ we
didn't want il to grow SO fast this year
that 1t would die next year. So We
| wouldn't water 1t 1T all and let it die
this year.
Alderman Turner called attention to
the fact that Chas. Fox secured control
| of tract OF land in the south of the
| city q short time ago, and in less than a
year had secured i've new industries
there. He had done this alone. The
organization could bring men into con-
tact who nave capital to invest and
men who have locations for industries.
