The excellent work the club has
been doing for Grand Forks, the
prospects for future successes. the as

Commercial Club Committee on
Such Propositions.

At least one solicitor working in
the city of Grand Forks has found
a plan for getting around the new
department of the Commercial club
under the direction Of which adver-
Using and soliciting propositions are
passed. This solicitor. according to
complaints which have reached the Of
flee of the secretary of the club. has
declared himself to have secured
favorable consideration at the hands
Of the club committee. but has pro.
duced no credentials to that effect.
President Lander reported the COM
mittee's activities today by showing,
since the organization of the commit
tee. that. nine propositions had been
considered. eight OF which were
turned down without favorable recog-
milton. only one receiving credentials
| of a favorable nature.
AS cal as a be figured. the sew
eral propositions which were turned
down would have meant an invest
ment of about $4,000 in the event that
they were carried through success
fully by the club.
Warnings will be issued by the club

not able to furnish proper creden-
