LACK OF ORGANIZED SUPPOR'

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL:
Sir-The report of the address Of
Governor Miller before the convention
OF Peninsula Horticultural Society
and Corn Growers Association Is
but another of the many public acts
demonstrating the character of the
man we are fortunate in having as
Governor of our State and at the
same time intensifies what has been
publicly demonstrated many times in
the past. the lack of organized sup
port on the part of our much-adver-
tised Chamber of Commerce.
Had the business men through
their organization been present TO
hear Governor Miller's address and
appreciate the full purport OF his
suggestions. they would now be ac-
tive in doing for Delaware what
every state south OF Mason and Dixon
Line is doing for their rural COM
munitics. and that is taking advan-
tago of the unparalleled opportunity
offered at this time
We are confronted. however with
the picture of our Governor In the
metropolis of our State extending a
welcome and Offering valuable sug-
/ gestions while the Chamber of Com
merce which extended the invitation
/ for the convention TO come to VIII
mington is conspicuous by reason OF
/ its absence and lack of cooperation
1t is not the first time that this
! has happened.
The writer recalls an occasion a.
a function of the Chamber of Com
merce where although Governor Mil
/ Ter was present the location of his
seat was ignored and he was not ever
recognized as a speaker until a gen
eral demand was made from the as
sembly.
is it not time that the Chamber o
Commerce should appreciate by IT.

lent Governor back up their report
and protostations and take up hi
suggestions and help him to max
them effective Other States are do

ernor Miller will be successful il

out decision. The amendment to the
present statute will be introduced in the
