COMPILING BO OK Of

and designed for general distribution
throughout the country,
This booklet will be compiled from
material sent i'm from local organi2a
tions throughout the state and edited
by competent committee.
No flamboyant statements or undu"
pressagenting it to be- allowed but a
clear, concise ana conservative state
ment of facts, circumstances and pros
poets Is to be the rule of the editing
committee.
Paul Il. Smith, secretary of the Ard
more Chamber oi Commerce, ana vice
president of the Oklahoma Commercial
Executives Association, explained that
i'm organizing the association the state
was divided into six districts, the dis.
tricts being based largely ON the ma
ture of the country and its particular
characteristics ana products.
1t is, therefore the purpose i'm com
piling the state book. to arrange it i'm
six sections covering the six districts,
with a general Introductory covering
the entire state. The districts will ho
supplied with booklets containing this
general Introductory and the section
covering that particular district; also
with q supply of the complete booklets
covering the state.
This plan it is believed, will supply
the crying need of partially every
commercial organization i'm the state
for literature, descriptive Of the resour.

tions. 1t is believed by those sccre.
taries that have made study of the
problem that a publication Of this char. /
