CHAMBER TAKES
 NEW BOND STAND
(Continued From Page One)

Thomas J. Connor, Earl C. Martin and Thomas Mccormick, members of the adlermanic legislative committee, are attending the hearing, all in sup port of the measure. In addition Sev- eral city officials, including Angus P. Thorne, Superintendent of Poor, and F. W. Berhens, president of the Board of Charities, are also present
 A statement issued this morning by Secretary Price, of the Chamber of Commerce, clearly defined the new stand of the organization, and follows in full:
 'FThe directors of the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce have author fzed representation at the hearing be- fore the Finance Committee in Hart ford on the authorization of S300,0O0 in short term noteS-One-half to be paid one year from date and the oth- CT half to be paid two years from date, the proceeds of which are to be used for the relief of the city s needy unemployed
 ''The Chamber of Commerce has stated:
 E~rhat it opposed the authorization of S5OO,OO0 so-caIIed Construction Bonds, the payment of which, by the terms of the bill, was to extend over fifty years;
 'aThat current expenses should be met by current revenues, derived from adequate tax levy;
 That the present emergency should be met through the SIC, 900 Contingent Fund, for which no spe- cffic use has yet been designated;
 "That since park improvement would furnish ideal employment in that there would be little material cost and no land cost and so the en- tire expenditure to be labor cost that the $1O5, ,O0O Park Bonds already auth orized might be issued for this pur- pose.
 That when the avails from these two sources were used that any furth- CT need should be met my special tax levy to be collected with the Septem- Der payment of taxes
 Without varying from these prin- cip1es in any way, the directors were unanimous in their agreement that very much more important than those prin nciples is the matter of giving inn mediate relief to the unemployed, not only in providing for their physical wants, but in giving. them assurances that the city has sufficient funds available for any emergency
 Accordingly, they are supporting the short term note issute, because the unemployment distress must be met immediately and with Iberality."
