made by the President, subject to the
approval of the Board, and all 8, CHI
appointments shall hold only until
the time of the next general election
Committee on Committees
The method of appointing COM
mittees was also changed to that
by a careful analysis of the men,
bers. committees might be appoint
ed of interested men who would
work for the betterment of the
chamber and of the city. Article v
of the bylaws which was also
changed at this meeting now reads:
Section /. There shall be select
ed by the Board of Directors COM
mittee on committees, to consist of
not more than five members. This
committee shah be selected at the
December meeting of the Board OF
Directors, and its term shall begin
on the first of January Immediately
following.
committees shall have the power to
select the personnel of all commit
tees. These committees shall not
function until approved by the
Board Of Directors.
This gives the Committee on Conn.,
mittees about five months in which
to draw up a slate of committees for
the fiscal year which begins on May
/.
Plan Membership Drive
1t was voted at this meeting that
the necessary plans for a member
ship drive should be made by the
board of directors. 1t is planned to
put the Augusta Chamber of Com
merce upon basis of service such
as it has never before reached and
it is believed by the members that
with program such as has been
carried out in the past year and still
a better one planned for the coming
year. the people Of Augusta should
feel tpot only a, duty but a pleas
ure tosbecome AFFILIATED with an or
ganization which is working for the
good Of the city as d whole.
Favor Improvement Belfast Road
The Chamber of Commerce went
on record as heartily IN favor Of i'm
proving the road between this city
and Belfast and voted that the presi-
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1924-04-09

dent should attend a meeting of the
. Highway commission at the State
House to urge upon the mthe nee
essity of this work.
An outline of a division system"
of committees which have proved
very beneficial to other Chambers
was given by Secretary Herbert Fol-
son who recommended that it be
adopted. No definite action was
taken at this time. but this will pro-
baby be taken up at an early
meeting.
Briefly stated this plan provides
for five different divisions of work
each with several standing sub
committees composed of interested
members. There are also to be four
unattached committees, the publicity
committee, the committee on COM
mittees, the membership. and the
Auditing committee.
The divisions and their subcom-
mittees as proposed are as follows;
mercantile division, committees on
retail trade, advertising and trade
extension; traffic division, commit
! tees on streets, freight and tourists:
civic division. committees on educa-
! ton, municipal improvements. taxa
ton. characterization, public safety
| and conventions: industrial division.
| committees on survey, new industries,
| athletics and industrial relations;
agricultural division, committees on
markets, legislation and fuel.
This would assure that each mem
Der of the chamber would have some
thing to do that would be to his lik-
| ing because of his business training
| and personal preference.
Outline Projects
Secretary Folsom also outlined
| some of the projects which might
| well be taken up by the chamber Of
| commerce during the coming year.
He spoke especially of the necessity
| for booklets descriptive of Augusta
| which might be sent to people of
other place who write to the local
| chamber for information about the
city. He stated that in the past few
months he has received letters from
| 40 of the As states asking for inform
alton about Augusta, and that these
requests have run well over 600. 1t
| is imperative that some such book
| be made up so that the city may
| receive the benefit of This sort of ad-
! yertising.
The necessity for good road signs
as we'll as good roads and some ar
rangement for garbage disposal,
which is very inconvenient at the
present time in many parts OF the
| city. 1t was also urged upon the
members that steps should be taken
to provide a good tourist camping
| ground for the use of summer tour
lists, as the one which we now have
| is in very bad condition.
Secretary Folsom spoke Of the
credit bureau which is now operating
| in the city, in q limited way and
explained how it is being conducted.
There were about As men present
at this meeting which followed a fine
! buffet supper served by George Beck
cit. The meeting indicated that the
| members of the chamber were there
to help make it more successful than
| 1t has ever been before, and the criti-
cism, which was not lacking, was
constructive rather than destructive.
Everyone took u part in the pro-
ceedings and on every hand the
spirit of cooperation for the good Of
the Augusta chamber of commerce
was manifest.

FISHING NOT LEGAL
AT COMPASSIONATE
+. Until ice GOES OUT

Cobbosseecontee Lake is not open
to fishing until the ice goes out, ru-
mors to the contrary notwithstand-
|sihg. Richard j. Upton, chief game
warden of Kennebec county, said
yesterday that the rumor Is being
circulated that by law OF the last
legislature Cobbosseeconttee can lie
fished after April is, whether the
Ice is out of the lake or not. There
is absolutely no truth in that story"
said Mr.. Upton. NO such law has
been passed and fishing Is not legal
in the lake until the ice leaves"
Mr.. Upton said that when he Wis
tied at the lake Monday OF this week
the ice was SO firm in places that
he was able to walk on it. 1t may
be two weeks before the ice leaves
the lake although a few warm days
following the rains will work won
ders, he asserted. The ice left Cob
bosseecontee April 26 last year;
April Is, in 1922; April /, in 1921 and
April 20 in 1920.
The law is on black bass and white
perch at Cobbosseecontee until June
20; provided, however, that 1t will be
lawful to take black bass with I'M
baited artificial files only from the
time the ice is out of the lake until
June 20; and further provided that
any person who catches a white
perch or black bass while lawfully
trolling in@ good faith for landlocked
salmon, trout or togue during the
closed season on white perch and
black bass may lawfully keep the
same. but no person shall in any
day keep more than six white perch
SO caught; and still further pro-
yided that no party or occupants of
a boat shall keep more than six
white perch and four black bass so
caught In any one day.
In the Belgrade chain of lakes It
is not lawful to take black bass
while lawfully trolling in good faith
for land locked salmon, trout or
togue, but, while thus trolling 1t Is
lawful to take six white perch to
each boat

SAYS JAPANESE WISH SAME RIGHTS THOSE

SENATOR PHELAN STATES JAP ANESE LAYING FOUNDATION
 COLONY IN AMERICA

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 15- Senator Phelan, speaking in regard to the immigration bill said:
 Tt is the ultimate purpose of the Japanese which we cannot overlook, to establish themselves in this coun- try on an equality with Europeans, and if they are to be put under the Quota Law for immigration they will win the first battle for acknowledge ment of racial equality. The fact is the Japanese are laying the foun- dation for permanent colonization on the Pacific slope which will spread rapidly to other parts of the country.
 Speaking of the suggested confer ence with the Japanese regarding the immigration, he said, "Our diplomacy on Asiatic matters is utterly eclipsed by the Japs ,and it would be better to avoid any conference and honestly and frankly adopt correct method which will do directly what we want to do in dealing with this concededly domes- tic problem"

 The announcement followed a cabi- net session in which Matsu reported on the Soviet dealings with ministers discussing the incidents cited Matsui said that Japanese public opinion was aroused and permitted no permits of any kind to the Soviets and precluded any idea of recognition until the full settlemen of the indignities was made.

Seward Firm Casts
 Anchors for Ayiators

On July 16, TAI, a Russian ship dropped anchor in pretty bay, after a voyage of 5000 miles. A boat was sent ashore by Captain Chirikof to ex- plore the surrounding country. Days having passed and no sign from the exploring party he sent another party ashore in the only remaining boat, with orders to return immediately. After waiting three weeks for news from this second expedition, since the food supply was getting low, Captain Chirikoff sailed away from what is now the port of Sitka.
 A little over half a century later some Russians having trouble with the natives had to sail into what is now Resurrection Bay and there they built a boat with which to fight the Indians This was one of the first boats that was built on the Pacific Coast. About the same time some bells were cast at Sitka and Kodiak for churches in Alaska and California.
 Nearly two centuries after the dis covery of Sitka and a little over a century after the building of the ship on the Pacific coast at Resurrection Bay, another historical incident came to pass in the same bay. Cal M. Bro sius, a business man of this town, which lies on the northern shores of Resurrection Bay has recently cast at his plant for the United States government, 40 anchors which are to be used in the round the world flight of U. S. Army aviators. These an chors will be distributed at five diff ferent stations in Southwestern Alaska. It is an incident of extreme note that the United States govern ment be supplied necessities for the round the world flight in the same bay where the Russians had to come for protection over century ago.
