CHAMBER COMMERCE
TO WATCH RESULTS
In The Building OF The Pro-
posed Subway.

With Messrs. Emmert. Bradford,
Lowell, McLanahan, Miller, Thomp-
son. Thorn and Secretary Heinel
present meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce was held yesterday
afternoon.
The secretary reported that the
chairman of the subway Commit.
tee had conferred with the Mayor
to learn If the Chamber of Com
MERGE Committee could not cooper
ate with the City Council Committee
TO hasten the action of the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad company.
'rhe Mayor informed the chairman oe
the Chamber of Commerce Com
mittee that the Council was making
satisfactory progress in the matter
anad did not feel the need of any as.
Stance from the Chamber of Com
merce. The Board decided to watch
results of the subway's progress and
discuss the matter again at the next
meeting.
A discussion took place regarding
the need for some immediate action
for the solution of the housing sit
uation. 1t was the opinion of the
board that 1t would be wise for til ,
president to write to the chairman
of the Housing Committee urging
them to formulate their plans Inn
mediately and suggesting that they
call a mass meeting of interested
persons for the purpose of raising
funds for building corporation.
The secretary announced that the
General Publicity COMMITTEE is alb
out to make canvass of the indust-
ries to secure data suitable for pub
LEGATION in a booklet advertising
Martinsburg and that it might be
helpful to the committee IL the
president would address a letter to
the various industries advising them
of the purpose of the Publicity
Committee and requesting the CO.
operation of the industries in Sc
curing this information. 1t was the
opinion of the Board that this would
be good thing and they recon-
mended the president to write such
a letter to the Industries.
