300 Is COAL OF
WORKERS; T
TO DATE rs 145
lsnecial MOLINE seryice.l

Thirty-four members we're en-
rolled in the East Moline Chamber
of Commerce this morning, bring
ing the total for the three days
up to 145.
Three hundred members is the
goal set by the workers in the
membership drive. Whether this
goal will be reached in the allot-
ted four days seems doubtful at
this time. 1t was predicted this
morning by one of the workers that
200-not more than 250-would be
the limit reached by tomorrow eve
ming when the campaign ends.
This, OF course, will not include
the factories and banks.
Gratifying in a degree is the fact
that most of those who have been
enrolled 30 far have not been iden-
tilted with the Chamber of Com
merce before. For instance, Of the
Sc memberships signed up Tues
day, II were renewals and 40 were
new. Renewals are not so difficult
TO get, in the opinion of an East
Moline business man, since those
who have participated in Chamber
of Commerce work in the past are
familiar with the benefits to be de-
rived through activities of the or
~ganiZation. Others have to be
made to understand the aims anG
purposes of the Chamber of Com.
merce. The renewals, it is believ,
ed, will come with but little effort
later, II not now.
All OF the campaign workers had
luncheon with the East Moline Ro.
tarians at the Kirkwood hotel to
day Business of the Rotarians
u was suspended and the club off.
GERS took charge of the meeting
This arrangement was made, mas
much as most of the Roterians are
participating in the drive.
Earle 7. Smith, who is directing
the campaign for the American CITY
bureau. will finish his work prob
ably tomorrow evening, though the
bureau will continue to serve the
East Moline Chamber of Commerce
for d period of three years.
Among the memberships obtain
ed to date r a number signed I'M
der the plural system. This is
where business firms take out more
than one membership, according To
their classification. The largest
number received from one firm is
10. The factories have not been
solicited as yet.
