BOARD OF TRADE
ANNUAL MEETING

Continued from rage IL
United War Work drive and also gave
freely of his great talent as a speaker
on other occasions. Manchester went
over the top in every drive and we
have gained the reputation of having
one of the best organizations in the
state on war work.
Each Of our public meetings was
advertised in all surroundings towns
and the secretary wrote about 100
letters Of special invitation to leading
men in adjoining towns on each occa-
sion in order to increase the attend
ance and let those men know we have
live Board of Trade.
We published, during the year, a
leaflet on Manchester which was wide
| ly circulated and also trade direc-
tory which was useful to newcomers
and people in the surrounding country.
More could be done in the way Of adj
vertising Manchester as trading
center and much more should be done
TO advertise our summer cottages and
attractions. All those who have cot
tages to rent, hotels, boarding houses
and those having cottage sites should
contribute to some effective joint ad-
vertising.
A small advertisement was inserted
in Montclair, N. j., paper, advertis-
ing summer cottages and maple syrup.
Orders for about rs gallons Of syrup
were received and the same customers
say they want larger amounts this
year. This was an experimental ad
to sec what could be done to find a
good high priced market for Vermont
products.
We have had a weekly column OF
Board Of Trade notes in the Manches-
ter Journal. This was originally in
tended for contributions Of interest
from all members of the Board Of
Trade, but the president and secretary
have been the only persons to contri-
butte items. All members should send
in items Of interest and they will be
edited by the secretary.
The secretary has prepared blanks
for historical record of the soldiers
in the great war, but the Legislature
is now considering making some pro-
vision for this work throughout the
state and it may be a waste Of time TO
duplicate the state records, but If the
1 Legislature makes no provision it
should be taken up by the Board Of
/ Trade.
I During the coming year, there
should be more cooperation between
the members and the committees and
/ the secretary. IL is the working to-
gcthcr which counts. We have gained
the reputation throughout the state
Of having a live Board of Trade. Bur-
lington, Brattleboro, Rutland and
Manchester are mentioned together as
having the liveliest Boards Of Trade
, in Vermont and we must try to live
up to our reputation,
+. GRIFFITH, Secretary.

erts showed that there were 9S mem
bers and that after taking care Of all

mittee was made and the members

lowing were chosen: For Manchester,

voting residence In some toher place.
This list is not being compiled to
ascertain the names Of all men who
were born, at some time lived, or
whose parents now are residents Of
this town, but it is intended TO show
what Manchester's actual participation
was in the war at the time Of the call

BOARD NOT TO HAVE OLD POWER
Rate Making Right to Remain With
Government

President Wilson has vetoed the
bill restoring to the interstate com,
merce commission its prewar rate
making power. and the veto has been
forwarded to the senate
Under government railroad control
the president has had the power to
make rates and did make several re-
visions upward, The Cummins bill
would have forced the president
through the railroad administration
to go before the interstate commerce
commission just 40 the railroads
themselves had to do before federal
control.
The president said the Immediate
effect of the proposed law would be
to deprive the federal government ol
the ability to "cope promptly ard de
cisively with operating emergencies
which are now arising and must con
tinue during the existing period ol
heavy trafiic."
Chairman A. B. Cummins OF the in
terstate commerce committee, author
Of the bill, said 1t was not likely that
any attempt would be made to pass
the measure over the presidents We
to. as the rate making powers Of the
commission would be restored when
the roads were returned to private
operation. Jan. L.
The provision Of the bill returning
the power Of rate review to state
commissions was the cause Of the
presidents veto. He said he had nc
objections to the feature of the biz
(which restored prewar powers to the
interstate commerce commission.
The veto message also spoke Of the
short time Of federal control remain
ing, indicating that the president has
not changed HIS mind about turning
back the roads Jan. 1.
