BOARD OF COMMERCE
JEFFERSON RUN DELAYED
MORE HOTEL ROOM FOR TOUR
ING SEASON NEEDED.

Investigation Of the local hotel sltua-
ton with view Of having more ample
quarters provided so as to accommodate
the increasing business that the city is
enjoying, was decided upon at meet
ing Of the board Of directors Of the
Board of Commerce Monday, evening, a
committee being appointed. Tourist
business is exceptionally heavy and
still on the increase. It has developed
that even with the. recent additional
hotel facilities that have been establish
cd, the accommodations are still made
quate. The committee hopes to be able
to report in the near future that the
necessary steps will be taken to rem
edy the situation at least by the time
that next years tourist traffic begins.
Due to heavy rains and floods in the
south, the schedule Of the Jefferson
Highway Sociability run has been set
back one day, so the party does not ex-
pect to reach Little Falls before the
Seventeenth of this month. The sched-
ule originally provided for the arrival
of the party here on the afternoon of
the sixteenth. In order to provide suit
able entertainment for the distinguished
visitors, efforts are being made to have
Guc ILlhS pOSLtOuC PASAAS AANAAA o~~o
sixteenth to the seventeenth.
It was decided to ask the Little
FAILS. Automobile Club to arrange for
the handling Of the party taking part
in the McGarry Walker State Automo-
bile tour. This tour is scheduled to so
as to provide an hour 8 stop in this city
on the afternoon Of Friday, July 25th.
The proposed moving Of the road that
is to be hard surfaced between Little
Falls and Royalton from its present To-
cation to the east side Of the railway
right of way was discussed, but action
on the proposition was deferred to a
later meeting. The question OF support
ING a movement to establish State
road, running north and south, west OF
the river received favorable consldera-
ton, although no attempt will be made
BY the Board Of Commerce to designate
the specific roads over which it should
Cd. Some of the members Of the organ
ization together with interested citl-
liens in the locality that the road is to
serve expect to make tour over the
roads that have been mentioned in con-
nection with this state road question.
The trip will probably be held late this
month or early in August.
The question of having the MISSISSIPPI
ri river cleared of deadheads was also
discussed The matter is to be invest1-
gated with as little delay as possible.
Some other minor routine business mat
ters were given attention.
