COMMERCE BODY
TO EXTEND WORK
BRUNSWICK WILL HAVE ADVlS-
DRY BOARD OF ABOUT TWEEN
TY-FIVE MEMBERS.

Brunswick is to have an advisory
board connected with the state cham
Der of commerce which plans to ex-
tend it's work into every county in the
state by creating boards in each of the
159 counties of Georgia. The execut-
i've committee of the booster organiza-
ton has passed on this plan and has
placed its o. K, on it.
The advisory board in each county
will consist of not less than % men.
In the larger counties the board will
run up to 200 or more. In this way the
state chamber hopes to create interest
in it's work from the mountains to the
seacoast. These numerous boards will
act in an advisory capacity for the
state headquarters. They will keep
track of the work of the state organi-
cation in their respective districts and
cooperate with headquarters when
ever possible. Some good strong bus
mess men will be chosen in every
county to head the board. Active or
CARNATIONS of his county will be in his
hands.
The work of the state chamber of
commerce is far reaching and should
be appreciated by every county in the
state. The Georgia chamber of COM
merce is working for a bigger, better,
Georgia and realizes that the safest
way to attain this goal is by building
up the individual counties.
Secretary Manager f. Y. Clarke, of
Atlanta, of the spite chamber will an
nounce the personnel CT the county
committees at an early date. An ex-
pert organizer will be sent to each
county during the summer and fall to
help the county chairmen organize
their cmmittees.
