PLAN RE0RGANIzE
AUGUSTA CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE

Believing that Augusta should
have its organization that would be
the logical connecting link in the
great develop Maine movement, and
that would have its own. program
for promoting the interests of this
city and immediate vicinity, a group
Of a dozen and more of the progress
sive business and professional men
held an informal meeting in the Of
fees of the Roy Flynt Service. Inc.
Friday forenoon, for the object OF
discussing ways and means for re
organizing the Chamber of Com
mcrcc, " lrich though it has not cN-
actly beer defunct has been cntirelv
passive during the past several
months.
Colonel Blaine Owen acted as
chairman of the meeting, with Rob-
ert Il. Williamson as secretary, ana
the entire spirit of the discussion
was one of enthusiasm for the re-
organization on a basis that would
assure functioning in the future.
Several plans were presented and
considered and in order that the
best possible system may be deter
mined and adopted, the group meet
ing yesterday adjourned for one
week, with a committee of five des-
ignated TO confer in that time and
report at the next meeting recon-
mendations for the formation OF the
new chamber.
Besides Col. Owen and Mr.. Will
hanson, those present at the in
formal assembly Friday were Henry
Briggs. Henry G.. Barker. William
J. Warrell, Roy Flynt, Thomas {.
Ingraham, Charles +. Flynt, Fred
G.. Davis, Milton O. Deane. Robert
f. Beane, Harry H. Pierce, Willis
+. Swift and Frank +. Mace.
All present were in agreement
that the Capital City of Maine SHOULD
not experience another period such
as during tho past summer. when
the Chamber of Commerce was but
a name on an Office door, and there
was no agency for the transaction
of business in the interests of this
city. it's business houses and its clt1-
zens, which would naturally have
been cleared through such an or
ganization OF the public spirited men
and women of the community.
