Plans for the complete reorganlza-
tlon OF the Tulsa Commercial club, the
revision Of Its constitution and by
laws. the starting OF a movement for
a big convention hall, and many other
radical changes in the working mode
OF the club. are being prepared. Sec
retary G. A. Sanderson Is leading the
move, and the public affairs COM
mlttee has placed its official sane
ton on the proposition. The first big
movement will be to secure 1000
members by January l. Beginning
next week, new members will be re-
celved for Il six months term, with the
initiation fee waived. This will give
the new members an opportunity to
vote on the new officers of the club,
the election to take place in January.
A monster banquet at the Hotel
Tulsa. for all public spirited people
Of the city will probably be held in
the near future, at which time the de-
tails of the new movement will be eX-
planned.
One Of the changes advocated by
Secretary Sanderson Is the abolish
ment of the Commercial club and re-
organizing it into Chamber of Com
merce. 1t is proposed to conduct a
country advertising compaign,
and to this end permanent publicity
department Will be organized, with a
competent man in charge.
Each class of business will be form
ed into its own side organiza ton. The
Hotel men will form one of the aux
illaries. and they will elect their own
chairman. The real estate men will
do likewise, and so on. In this man
ner every phase of the civic advance
ment work can be promptly and cap
ably handled by the men that are rep
resented by each new situation that
arises.
TULSA Will' is the new slogan of
the club. Many local merchants and
manufacturers are making wide use of
the slogan already. Every firm and
individual in the city will be requested
to have the significant words printed
on their stationery. TO the four cor
ners of the earth will be spread the
news of wonderful Tulsa. Far reach
ing efforts will be made to bring peO-
pie and factories to the city.
The club will be conducted by the
entire membership. The officers will
be elected in open session. by the full
body of the club, instead of by the
board of directors, as heretofore. In
this way it is felt, all i'll feeling can
be obliterated and every man belong
ing to the organization will feel that
he is a working, active part Of the
club. Every man will have his place
He will know what he is expected to
do and will be ready to carry out his
duties the minute the occasion arises.
There are three hundred active
members of the Commercial club at
present. There should be a thousand
